Hi I am a female age 42 height 5ft I weigh 142 lbs my blood pressure reading here at home is 190 over 120 I have been getting very bad headache and 2 mornings in a row I woke up with a very bad headache and very sick to my stomach could the blood pressure have anything to do with it?

Hello, Blood pressure can certainly cause the headache. So it should be controlled. You should have a healthy lifestyle like avoiding fatty, oily and high calorie diet. Have low salt diet and monitor blood pressure regularly thrice a day for one week then once or twice a week. Regular exercises like brisk walking, jogging according your capacity at least 30 min a day and 5 days a week. Lots of green leafy vegetables, fruits, fish once or twice a week, avoid meat. Avoid smoking and alcohol if any. There shouldn't abdominal fat deposition or obesity. Get your lipid profile and sugars tested once. Visit the doctor and get BP medicine prescribed like telmisartan and HY Chat Doctor. Stomach problem mostly a gastritis and acidity problem. Do you upper abdominal pain, nausea, bloating, burping, increase in pain on food, sour water feeling in throat or chest burning, if yes it further supports the diagnosis? You should avoid fatty, oily and high calorie diet. Have some walk after having food instead of taking rest. Have multiple small meals instead of heavy meals. Have regular sleep habits and avoid stress. Lots of green leafy vegetables, fruits. Avoid smoking and alcohol if any. You can get prescribed tab Pantoprazole 40 mg before breakfast once a day for 2 weeks.

i am 40 yrs old female wt=65 kg ht= 5ft 2in. i have two daughters. my husband is also a teacher. i teach in high school. my problem is knee pain and some times pain in middle fingers quite often and pain in my leg below the knees. i feel that i am lossing my memory power or forgetfulness.
|
Hello, As most teachers are having similar complains about the back pain, knee pain, legs pain and radiating pain in the upper limb. These symptoms are related to the job profile. As teachers have to stand longer, teachers have no proper physical health care, always tensions and troubles etc. The reason for the pain in knees are due to early OA changes in the knee joint, and the leg pain is added to the standing for the long run. Pain in the middle finger is the reason due to cervical spine disc nerve root entrapment due to postural changes. I will advise for doing regular exercise which includes the strengthening of the neck muscles, upper limb muscles, inter-scapular muscle, knee muscles, leg muscles, hip muscles, core muscles etc. As these muscles are used in a wrong posture and repetitive stress injury is occurred to the tissues, joints and ligaments. Taking utmost care is important from now as most people ignore these symptoms and when the symptoms boom up it may lead to pain and aches to the maximum. None of the students is having a sense of respecting the teachers. But it's sad that most of our teachers s are suffering from the same issues and there is not much help from any student. I will request you to take care of your health and get selfish for it because we need teachers like you who have shaped the world of today. I salute you for being a great mentor to the community through its unheard and ignored by others. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Jay In Chat Doctor.

I woke up this morning with a big lump in my right breast. The lump is as big as a golf ball. It is painful. I had this happened before about a year ago, the lump was in my left breast then and it was way bigger. I figured it was exposure to mold. You see, we rented a home in Missouri and they did not have a good air circulation. As a matter of fact no windows in the bathroom and the exhaust fan was not working. After each shower, the carpet will feel damp. Few days later, a smell of mold (spores) became very strong. That s when the lump appeared. After we vacated the house, few days later the lump subsided and never returned. Will this be the same phenomenon? I am 49 years old, all my mammograms have been normal.mary Or should I see the doctor now?

Hello hope the answer helps you. As far as my understanding madam all your screening mammograms are normal but recurrently having painful breast lump I don't know whether associated with nipple discharge or any wearing ulcer there, and you found that after leaving that non-ventilated house it settled, but usually such infections are more common in diabetics and immunocompromised people if you are smoking it can cause inflammation of breast ducts and stasis of secretions as PERIRECTAL MASTITIS.you TRY A COURSE OF ANTIBIOTIC AS amaryllis plus clavulanic acid 1gm BD for 7 days with some analgesic and hot fomentation and soft bra wear take it out at night. If not settled madam than consult breast surgeon kindly

I slipped on some wet cement tiles today and landed on my left butt cheek, not my tailbone, and now I am in a lot of pain. I know you can t break your butt cheek, but what would cause so much pain. It is not bruised, it just hurts a lot. It is hard for me to walk and I can t sit on that side of my butt. My question is what could be causing so much pain?
|
Hi, Thank you for providing the brief history of you. As you mentioned the mechanism of injury we should understand that when ever there is a fall, there might be two things, either muscular injury or either a bony injury. Undergoing an MRI of the Lumbar spine will help provide some input. Sometimes due to fall there are chances that you may damage the soft tissue of the lumbar spine and also the bony alignments are disturbed. The reason for this is the whole load is borne by the lumbar spine as there is a tremendous thrust on the hip region due to fall. Most cases landing on the hip region during the fall, land into the injury of the lumbar spine and get misdiagnosed due to improper assessment plan. I will recommend undergoing an MRI of the lumbar spine to get assess further into the depth of the issue. RegardsJay In Chat Doctor.

Hi, Im 25 years old and have had cancer twice. I want to use propecia to help prevent more hair loss but the sight of seeing prostate cancer and breat cancer as two of the side effects that scare me. What, in your mind, is a ballpark percentage of me being diagnosed with prostate cance and/or breast cancer if I start taking procecia?
|
Hi, Thanks for writing in. Propecia is a 5-alpha reductase inhibitors group of medicine and contains finasteride which helps in hair growth. Treatment with finasteride reduces the risk of being diagnosed with low-grade prostate cancer. But there is an increased risk of a later diagnosis of high-grade prostate cancer. Please discuss with your doctor on the probabilities of alopecia intake causing a higher incidence of high grade prostate cancer in later life. At 25 years age you might not have any side effect but with continued intake the risk rises. Instead of taking alopecia you can apply lotion containing a combination of minoxidil and finasteride which works for hair growth. Please do not worry.

Hi I am starting to get worried about my mom, she is 82 and have been noticing certain things with her, her memory has been terrible for awhile now, she is shaky, forgets where she puts things, she just had a server bladder infection this week, and was very confused which I found out it is very common in the elderly, she use to be organized and is not the best anymore with it, her older brother had alzimers and has passed away, I am going down to see her tomorrow and have a doctors appointment on wednesday to talk wiath her doctor,
|
Hello, welcome to Chat Doctor. She appears to have dementia considering old age, memory loss, disorganized behavior and history of Alzheimer in brother. Early cases of Dementia respond well to treatment by neurologist. If symptoms are recent in onset and associated with bladder infection, then there is need to rule out delirium due to poor medical condition in her case. Wish you good health and all the best.

Good evening. I am an 45 year old male that has been diagnosed with a left middle fossa Arachnoid cyst that appears to be pushhing into the sidewall of the temple. I could only measure it in length and height. As I can tell it is approx 7cm by 4cm. There is also an 2cm x2cm cavernoma on the upper left cerebellum . Would these be considered large?.I have constant headaches lately as well as episodes of dizziness, numbing and tingling in the temple and jaw, pain on the entire left side of my body as well as minor seizures in my upper extremities. Vision tends to be off and on blurry in the left eye as well as eye pain. I have been diagnosed with ADHD as well as mood disorder . I was involved in an incident while I was in the service over twenty years ago concerning being involuntarily chocked into unconsciousness and then suffering a concussion on top of that,after falling and hitting my head on a concrete bathroom floor. Could these conditions be the end result of that fall?
|
The arachnoid cyst is something not to be worry. You should be careful with that cavernous, that's something to be worried. You should consult your neurologist if that cavernous had cause hemorrhage or not. Those symptoms are related with left cerebellar cavernous probably after her first rupture. Wishing you all the best

Thank you so much. I had blood work done and they say my white cell count is high/normal AND I have had blood in the urine....an ongoing thing for a few years. (Had a series of urology tests, 3 years ago and all they said is traces of sar tissue ....But, the white blood cell count being high, is new. I see a urologist and a hematologist next Tuesday, June 24. Thank you for your reply. Glenda
|
Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. There are many causes of high white blood cell count. Most common cause is infection. You have blood in urine, so you may have infection in your kidney or bladder or urinary tract. Please send me report of your complete blood count and urine examination so that I can help you further. Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/ Chat Doctor. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health

Im wondering why my lips keep cracking in the two corners over and over. I get them to heal and then they crack again. I recently (8weeks ago) had my fifth surgery due to cancer... a Latissimus Dorsi Muscle reconstruction surgery. My doctor (LOVE him) used Exparel this time although Im NOT sure that has anything to do with it?... I need to get some relief that is permanent!
|
Hello, The most common causes for cracking of lips at mouth corners are collection of fluid and resulting fungal infection. This can also happen if a person has braces or has ill-fitting dentures. Nutritional deficiencies like iron, zinc and B complex vitamins can also cause this, but this is found in some occasions only. Treatment involves... Keeping your corners of mouth Chat Doctor. Applying an antifungal cream followed two hours later with 1%hy

My father is 81 years and haven diagnosed for seizures.. He has. Been taking levipill 500 since feb 2011 . Morning 2 tab and night 2 tabs..will he have any side effects. He has reduced tab as morning two tab and evening one and half since three months.again he had seizures.is is because of reduction in medicine.now he is on IV with levipill. How will he stabilise?
|
Hi, Thank you for posting your query. Level (levetiracetam) is a safe medicine for treating epilepsy. His current dose of 500 mg two tablets- 1000 mg twice daily is safe. There is no need to reduce the dose, as dose reduction may cause seizures to recur. Epilepsy is a chronic disease, and needs long-term medications. There is no need to worry about his current condition, as he would recover soon. Best wishes, Chat Doctor.

Iat least four have had skin problems for to to three years no. Ive been to dermatologists. Being diagnosied with Rocea, seborrbiac dermantis, possible sjorgns disease and stap infection. Ive taken so many antibotics its unreal. Not counting the creams, etc. My hair line is receding having weird skin apperance and black dots at my hair follicules. I have patchy areas, red , then it seems just under my skin are skin color oddities. It looks like I have patchy white trails just under my skin. It actually seems like some of these trails have something inside them ...like little worms. I keep having diarrehia and feel really weak a lot of the time. My regular doctor gave me two pills of Ivermectin. (3mg each) I do not think the dosage was strong enough. I read about Dariers disease before but didnt have the info I found on this site.Also, my hair follicules seem to be infected everywhere. What do you suggest? I desperately need help. Denise

i took an answer pregnancy test and 1 bold purple line showed up on the right side. Can I be pregnant?And also my atomic feels tight. Im dizzy all the time.I feel tired I get head aches all the time. Ive been using the bathroom alot. What dose this mean
|
Hi, You should read the test as positive if you get two positive lines. Please repeat the test after a couple of days with a fresh early morning sample if you are 3-7 days post your missed period. Else, you can go for the serum beta-ChatDoctor title estimation if you wish for an earlier and better confirmation as it is more specific as well as sensitive. Your symptoms are suggestive of a very early pregnancy, but need to be documented by an evidence. Hope your query has been answered. Wish you good health.

Hello Doctor,For the past I would say 2 days I have had severe diarrhea which is I would say yellowish brownish and slight orange. My main concern is that it has a very strong foul smell similar to vomitt or bile. I feel dehydrated and a little weak also but not nauseated so much or have any other symptoms. I have had this happen to me on and off over the last few years and it comes and goes but my diet has been pretty much the same. I recently 3 times this year have had what I believe is a gal bladder attack
|
HIT hank for asking to ChatDoctorI can understand your concern, looking to your history it seems chronic intestinal infection and not the gallbladder problem because this is not the sign and symptoms of the gallbladder pathology, If I would be your doctor then I would treat you as patient of chronic dysentery of protozoal infection and straight, away put you on antiprotozoal Chat Doctor.

My Ct scan showed that I have some component of fatty infiltration of the liver. Mild hepatomegaly. My liver measures 22 cm. No space-occupying mass in the liver or the spleen. No abnormality in the pancreatic bed. The gallbladder appears normal. Adrenal glands appear normal. There is no renal mass. No hydronephrosis of the kidneys. There is no aneurysm of the abdoninal aorta. No enlarged adenopathy. No free fluid within the abdomen. There is no indujration in the nesentery. Mild Hepatomegaly. Dinfiltration of the liver. Otherwise, negative comuterized tomography of the abdomen. I used to drink whiskey when I got upset or depressed about something, but quit just recently, and I dont want to drink any kind of alcohol ever again. What does this medical report that is written about my Ct scan mean? Also my blood work came back that I have good liver function, kidneys, and etc. Does this mean I have some kind of liver damage in areas of my liver? Since I dont drink anymore will my liver get better? What can I do or take to help my liver and entire body get back in shape and back to being healthier again? Thank-you for your medical advise, please write me back soon. YYYY@YYYY

Hi, many thanks for the query! Well, your report is not that bad to be worried so much, but the decision not to Chat Doctor. You should start some medicines for reducing fatty infiltration of your Liver with your doctors' opinion. Rest all findings in your report are normal, also it's good that your Liver function tests are normal. Do regular exercise, also yoga & meditation if possible. Wish you a good health. Take care. Regards.

### Question: My Ct scan showed that I have some component of fatty infiltration of the liver. Mild hepatomegaly. My liver measures 22 cm. No space-occupying mass in the liver or the spleen. No abnormality in the pancreatic bed. The gallbladder appears normal. Adrenal glands appear normal. There is no renal mass. No hydronephrosis of the kidneys. There is no aneurysm of the abdoninal aorta. No enlarged adenopathy. No free fluid within the abdomen. There is no indujration in the nesentery. Mild Hepatomegaly. Dinfiltration of the liver. Otherwise, negative comuterized tomography of the abdomen. I used to drink whiskey when I got upset or depressed about something, but quit just recently, and I dont want to drink any kind of alcohol ever again. What does this medical report that is written about my Ct scan mean? Also my blood work came back that I have good liver function, kidneys, and etc. Does this mean I have some kind of liver damage in areas of my liver? Since I dont drink anymore will my liver get better? What can I do or take to help my liver and entire body get back in shape and back to being healthier again? Thank-you for your medical advise, please write me back soon. YYYY@YYYY
### Answer: Hi, many thanks for the query! Well, your report is not that bad to be worried so much, but the decision not to Chat Doctor. You should start some medicines for reducing fatty infiltration of your Liver with your doctors' opinion. Rest all findings in your report are normal, also it's good that your Liver function tests are normal. Do regular exercise, also yoga & meditation if possible. Wish you a good health. Take care. Regards.

hello dr, i would like to know whts the reason behind the flickering of lips as it happens to my husband and it continues for few seconds so plz would like to know what are the remedies n reason behind that thank u if u help me out to solve the query n would also like to know is it related with some heart problem or something serious.
|
Welcome to Chat Doctor! On reading your question I feel that you should meet a doctor in person and get your husband examined. Had I been treating him I would check his blood pressure, may need an ECG, routine blood tests. You have not mentioned if your husband is aware of these symptoms himself while having it or not? But still I think it will be wise to get a CAT scan head done to check if everything is right in brain. The symptom you have described can be in case of high blood pressure or may be due to some kind of minor seizure like activity in brain.... One can be sure of anything only after examining him and getting some investigations. I will suggest you that you should not ignore it. It doesn't appear to be dangerous at present, so please do. It panics but certainly warrants investigation. Hope you find the reply helpful feel free to ask more queries

My son (3 and half years) had febrile seizure due to high fever on 27.11.2014 was in hospital for 2 days. Since 30.11.2014, temperature above 100 F has not occured. But now he is vomiting whatever he eats. Has little bit cough also. We took him again to doctor and he said its due to gastric problem because of antibiotics (cefdinir) and asked to stop it. He prescribed Emeset (thrice daily) and Nexpro junior sachet (twice daily) for two days. But even at the end of two days vomiting is still happening. He had rice yesterday night and did not vomit. But today he had oats and vomited. Otherwise he looks okay. Better active than before. Earlier he used to turn away face from food. Now he eats but vomits after some time. The vomit is mainly watery and occasionally undigested food goes. He has loose motion at the time of giving antibiotics but has now decreased and seems to be okay. Should I continue Emeset and Nexpro till he vomits no more ?

Hi...looks like your son is on the recovery path from a viral illness. It is very common for kids to vomit during recovery period and in convalescence. Fever of few days without any localizing signs could as well a viral illness. Usually rather than fever, what is more important is the activity of the child, in between 2 fever episodes on the same day. If the kid is active and playing around when there is no fever, it is probably viral illness and it doesn't require antibiotics at all. Once viral fever comes it will there for 4-7 days. So do not worry about duration if the kid is active. Regards -

Degree understand your concerns went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. I sincerely suggest that you are victim of your own negative thinking. You cannot term your current state of mind as clinical depression. Rather, this is just disappointment. Over and above, you are imagining things which are common to all people. The "bacteria" in your vision area is a common sight for everyone. Regarding your stomach gurgling - We broadly call it obsession. You had that disturbing sensation once. You expected it to happen again and tried. Then you started experiencing it as you were expecting it. Then your body brought the familiar symptom because you are expecting it. Then you started worrying that the symptom is coming again and again and expect it. Body brings it again as you are expecting it. You become worried and so on. That is obsession in simple terms. Ignore it and the problem vanishes. Psychotherapy techniques should suit your requirement. If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques. Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications. Good luck.

Dear Doctor , Good morning to u! My wife aged 49 yrs was having teeth problem due to gum disorders and had to remove 4-5 teeths. She was also transplanted with artificial teeth before 2 yrs. Since then she has been suffering from mouth ulcer . Now, her doctor advised her to use Candid v6 in her mouth for 6 days and to take centum tablets once a day for 30 days. If the ulcer persists after a week, the Doctor advises her to apply caziq oitment in her mouth. Can u suggest any other treatment for this ? Or is it advisable to use candid v6 in the mouth? Kindly give me ur expert advise in the matter.
|
Hi TMK KuttyWelcome to Chat Doctor. If she has an ulcer persisting for so long time, she should consider getting evaluated for the same. The treatment being given is appropriate. She can use Candid oral preparation for mouth fungal infection. I advise her to take vitamin B supplements to relieve from the symptoms. She should also use a mouthwash which is non-alcoholic like Hora. Hope I answered your question. If you need more information feel free to mail me. Take care

Hello! Welcome and thank you for asking on Chat Doctor ! Your son symptoms could be related to an allergic reaction. A chronic infection or a metabolic disorder can not be excluded either. For this reason, I would recommend consulting with his doctor for a careful physical check up and some tests: - a sinus X-ray study-complete blood count- PCR, ESR for inflammation- thyroid hormone levels-vitamin B12 and vitamin D levels for possible deficiency-blood electrolytes. Further tests may be needed (allergy tests, etc.). Hope to have been helpful! Best wishes,

Im female; almost 18 years of age, about 115 lbs, and about 510."b"My symptoms began with a very sore throat and my gums felt strange. Eventually, I developed a minor earache, my gums became extremely swollen, red, and seem to be receding quickly away from my teeth, (because of the pain that goes along with the gum swelling, I havent been able to eat much- and only yogurt and jello when I do) and lastly, Ive had severe dizziness when I stand up, and soon after I began growing sick to my stomach and was unable to stand up for any period of time. After all the symptoms had hit their worst, I had a fever of 101 which weve been able to get back down to 99 twice. The person we consulted with said this was viral and I could only rinse with salt water and drink lots to wash it out. Is there ANYTHING else I can do to make the gums stop receding??? That is the worst part...
|
IIN regard to your query, as your doctor said it is viral infection, and please follow the instructions what ever he said. You can use mouth wash or warm saline gargling for temporary relief and inflammation also will come down.2. Coming to your receding gums it is very much clear that they are extremely inflamed once the infection the has come down only then exact status of your gums will be seen.3. Treatment for the receding gums you can visit your periodontist for the best diagnosis and the treatment as well. So finally nothing much to worry please visit your specialist dentist as mentioned. Hope I have answered your query.

Hi,2 weeks ago I had all 4 wisdom teeth pulled , a moler and an extra tooth that I had in my upper pallet. I dont have any pain anymore but I do wake up every morning with a huge headache ever since the surgery. I feel the pain more on my temples . Will this pain ever go away?
|
HelloUsually there is never a side effect like headache due to the removal 4-5 teeth. It could be due to the altered diet habits. Try to take more carboy Chat Doctor. During extraction of so many teeth the tissue takes time to heal and needs correct nutrition for it. So kindly regularize your meals. If it isn't subsiding at all then show to a physician for possible migraine. Thank you.

My sister-in-law I beleave is a hyperocondrac and I want to know what kind of treatment that I can do with her with out her knowing. I do beleave that it is all a mind game. And can be cured with a mind game. For instince, A patient keeps going into the ER for migraine but is just seeking meds. If a Dr. just puts in an IV with flouds and injects into it sailine but tells the patient that they are giving them a new drug that helps with migrains and it is the best on the market. That patient will fell with-in munites that the meds. are working. But in reality all that they were given was the sailaine flush insteed. An I correct of am I correct. I thank this should be done in every ER. After working in an hospital as an patient access service clerk for over 11 years. I know that this will work. It just it not good pratice correct. Who cares if it works then use it. We know who are the drug seekers. The one who are aslo hyperconderatc. So why when nothing is found don t the ER doc talk to the family members that are there with the pt. see what is goinbg on and take an dicition and tell a little fib. make up an issuse and give it a cure. Like you are low on on iron for example of something like that where you can percribe meds that have no effect on anything like taking an vitiman of something. If we know that it is just a mind game and the pt thanks that she is being treated with for her illness ya it still might take a few time to cure them but I am a firm beleaver that this will cure thousands of patient dailey. Just thank about too. less of a waist of supplies less charges less money spent by the hospital. I do beleave that this is the merical cure that can cure a lot of illnesses. But I know that morals are involeved fuck that. Just give the pt what they what, Or what that want to hear and creat a cure. You need to come in for aniboitic for 3 visites it will take 30 min. per visit make them thank that they are reciving some kind of treatment for there illiness. cured with an IV of sailaine. Peace of cake now just get passed in the real world and there would be much less illness like this due to a cure for theie illness that is not an illness.

The pads of my finger tips are tender. They feel like they were slghtly burned. I thought it was from typing as it was just the two index fingers that I se to tpye that were sensitive. Now two more are somewhat sensitive. Not sure if this is a symptom for soething else and whether I need to go see my Dr.

Hello, What I understand from history is, this should be related to the job profile. If you are kind of person who uses the computer more than you need to get assessed with an orthopedic for any nerve compression in the carpal tunnel. Due to carpal tunnel compression which happens mostly due to long hours and years of typing, and it needs attention. Once you confirm what the cause is then a physiotherapist will be of great help to you for the same. Also in carpal tunnel compression, these symptoms are common and need medical attention. Please feel free to contact me if you have any other queries. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Jay In Chat Doctor.

Back in November 2013, I was put on Meloxicam 15mg for arthritis in my lower back. Then in March, 2014 my bloodwork for my regular checkup every year came back with a high platelet count and I was sent to a hematologist and it was still high and he put me on the chemo drug Hydroxyurea. From what I have been reading about the drug, essential thrombocythemia can be caused by inflammation in the body (arthritis). Is there any connection between the two?
|
It is necessary to know how high is the platelet count and is it isolated, or it is associated with elevation of other components. . somebody inflammatory conditions do give rise to thrombocytopenia and once corrected it turns to normal. Marked thrombocytopenia is needed to be treated and HY Chat Doctor.

Daughter who is 29, has 2 lumps in her left breast...a large one on the center top of her breast and a small hard one to the left of the areola. She got an ultrasound....the doctor told her it could just be hard breast tissue or could be a cystic fibroid. They told her to make another appointment in 6 months for follow up or come in sooner if there is any changes or pain. They did not suggest a biopsy. Is this sound advise? Or should she demand a biopsy?
|
Hi, Dear,Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor. I studied your problem in depth and I understood your concerns. Treatment for the lumps in your breast-left-In my opinion both these 2 lumps are part of the-Fibroadenosis and does not appear to be Fibroadenomas even, for which your doctor rightly advised you to re-examine after 6 myths time. I would advise you to have a Second Surgeon opinion, as you are worried much. You are quite young to have cancerous tumor and so you should be watchful for any increase in size of the lump-which are not malignant / or benign type, as they are caused due to hormonal imbalance and breast tissue responses to the imbalance of the cyclical hormonal changes. And Hence for further treatment I would advise you to Consult second ER Surgeon, who would treat it accordingly. This advice is based on the facts from the history you give and needs further clinical check.Hence, I would advise you to check with ER Surgeon. So don't build up wrong concepts and create more psychic complications in you which would increase risks and costs to you. Hope this would relieve your problem. Welcome for any more query in this regard to Chat Doctor. Write good resume and Click thanks if you feel satisfied with my advice. Have a Good Day. Chat Doctor. N.

I fell on stairs a little over a week ago with my lower back on the right side hitting the edge of the step. I had severe pain which is lessening but I sometimes get a sharp pain when sitting down or standing up. It was diagnosed as a contusion but there is no bruise mark. X-rays did not show any breaks. I try to walk around a little bit and take 600 mg ibuprofen every 4 hours. Why no bruise mark if it is a contusion, how much longer until pain goes completely away and should I use any other type of treatment? I use an ice pack every few hours. Thanks.
|
Hi there, Thanks for writing in. Initial 24-48 hours after any injury, it is best to use an ice pack intermittently. However, now the injury is almost a week old, in which case hot fomentation would be ideal. Apply a small quantity of pain relief gel like voting(diclofenac gel) to the affected region of the back. Do not massage or rub the gel too much. Just apply it lightly. After half an hour or so apply a hot water bag/ hot fomentation to the affected area. Do the above at least 3 times a day. Reduce the oral intake of ibuprofen gradually. Too much of this pain relief medication can cause gastritis. Hopefully you should be completely okay in another week or so. If the pain persists or increases in intensity, please visit your physician at the earliest... Hope this helps.

Hi.... Please do not use Operative. It is contraindicated in kids. It seems your kid is having viral diarrhea. Once it starts it will take 5-7 days to completely get better. Unless the kids having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry. There is no need to use antibiotics unless there is blood in the motion. Antibiotics might worsen if unnecessarily used causing antibiotic associated diarrhea. I suggest you use zinc supplements (Z&D Chat Doctor.

I am on birth control and took one more active pill than I was suppose to last month, hoping to delay my period by a day. But my period never came. My next period is expected next week. I ve been really nauseated, exhausted, cramping, spotted yesterday a little, been running a fever, and can only eat things that I am craving. Is this due to messing up my schedule or could I be pregnant?
|
Hi, Chat Doctor. I Think I have understood your concern. If you had regularly consumed the birth control pills and added only one more pill, you were totally protected in that. Cycle. If you have not started your periods within ten days of stopping the pills and your most of the symptoms ate that of early pregnancy. I will suggest you to get mornings first sample of urine tested for pregnancy. If it is negative then you can wait for menses to come. But Please observe another contraceptive method like Condom. Even if it is positive, you can opt for termination of pregnancy with medicine safely till 9 weeks of pregnancy. I hope this answer helps you. Thanks

I have had a wrist in my right wrist for about three months that will not go away. I have seen my GP and she has given me a couple of topical creams, the latest being permethrin cream, 5%. It will settle down but then recur with a vengeance. Currently the itching will wake me at night and now I have scratched it raw. Her latest diagnosis was scabies .
|
Hello, Even though wrist is a common site for scabies it is unlikely or rare for scabies to be located only over wrist. You have been having it for three months and I expect scabies to affect rest of your body like your underarms, groin, around umbilicus and webspaces of hands. It is better to show a dermatologist for this. Hope this helped. Take care.

You have been having it for three months and I expect scabies to affect rest of your body like your underarms, groin, around umbilicus and webspaces of hands. It is better to show a dermatologist for this. Hope this helped. Take care.

HiI recently had root canal treatment for an abscessed upper front tooth. Have one more treatment to go.Since trouble with my tooth I am experiencing ear ache/pressure in both ears, facial and general discomfort in my gums. I am experiencing nausea intermittently, also an unpleasant bile type taste in my mouth. I also have a blocked left nostril which I think is sinus related Have you any idea what may be occurring.? Cheers Jennie
|
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your question, the discomfort in the face and gums could be because of the infection in the tooth. This will be reduced once you complete the course of antibiotics and treatment.....the nausea could be because of the antibiotics and analgesics due to gastric irritation, you can take antacid with antiemetic.....the pain in the ear could not be related to the front tooth infection...consult ENT specialist for that... I hope my answer will help you...take care.

HiT hanks for using Chat Doctor In that case, you need to consult a psychologist. You should ventilate yourself. That would help you to come out of this guilty thoughts. You can also consult a psychiatrist if you feel you need few medications like antidepressant or benzodiazepine. Better to do some relaxation exercise and in case, you need further help, you can ask. Thanks

hi i have a friend who is on dyalasis and in need of a kidney transplant ... a good friend of hers offered and was matched perfectly except for one issue her freind has a low creatine level and they said that she may need both her kidneys to cop with it ...my question is this its two fold.. one .. are they merely beign over cautious in the donor matching process and two is there somehting that can be done medicinally to help her keep a constant level if she does donate the kidney ?
|
Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor. As a Urologist and transplant surgeon, i can understand your anxiety. Your questions are mainly in the interest of donor and recipient.First, understand that a donor is not a patient. At no cost, will a doctor harm a healthy person, volunteering to donate organ.1. Maximum caution will be taken, to keep a donor healthy, after surgery.2. If creatinine level is low in a potential donor, that person will never be considered for organ donation, as his/ her health will be compromised. Hope your doubts are cleared. You can send me a direct question, to me. Chat Doctor. Manga.

Hi, my boyfriend has been having a skin problem for the last month. The only life change he has had is a job change in the last month. He works at Pep Boys now. He keeps getting huge really itchy lumps under his skin. They have appeared on his back, face, feet and arms. He can sooth them with a warm towel. They seem to itch more at night then during the day. He is awakened from the itchiness every night. Clothes seems to irritate them. They last for about three days and then go away leaving a red mark behind. More appear later around the same area the last one appeared in. He does not have any health insurance or the funds to go to the doctor right now. Can someone please give their professional opinion and help him.
|
HelloThanks for posting your query.It's very difficult to give an opinion just based on a description. It's important to see the lumps and then advise. However, from the history that you provided it could be urticaria or hives. The treatment would be taking an anti histamine like tablet Allegra once a day and tablet clarity once a day. He can apply cortisone cream mixed with newsprint cream on the lumps twice a day. He can try out the treatment for a week but if it doesn't help then he needs to consult a doctor who can examine him. Take care

My 80 yr old father just had a minor procedure done to evacuate the blood due to a sub dual hematoma . He does not have a history of history of seizures. He has been prescribed eptoin , do not know the dosage, for a period of one year. Is this common? He also takes medicines for BP and adult onset diabetes . What is your advice?
|
Hi Rama S V, The Option has been prescribed in an attempt to prevent occurrence of seizures. It is not uncommon for this medication to be prescribed after neurosurgical operations. However, there is usually not an increased incidence of seizures following evacuation of chronic subdural hematoma. As far as your question regarding the duration of taking this medicine goes, there is no hard and fast rule and practices vary from giving it for a week or two to much longer periods. This is according to the preference of the treating physician and practices vary. Hope this helps.

My 2yr old just had a bowl movement and it was horrible smelling and very jelly like. Also looked mustard yellow. She had a previous bad smelling bm earlier today but it was a normal consistency and normal in color. Should I be worried. She hasn t eaten anything she hasn t had before. And she isn t acting sick or anything.
|
Stool consistency and frequency in a 2-year-old can change from greenish to yellowish and mucoid to semi-solid to hard stools. If the child has no other symptoms in form of abdominal distension, vomiting, fever, not feeding well, there is nothing to be worried about. The child is absolutely normal and requires no medication. Thanks and regards.

I have a frozen shoulder due to a bad fall, I was given gabapentin at pain clinic.Im only on a low dose at moment,but does it work for a frozen shoulder. I took tramadol and paracetamol and it helped. I could move my shoulder a bit without being in agony
|
In my opinion gabapentin is for neuropathy problems like pain related to nerve inflammation or compression as sciatica however it can help in shoulder pain if shoulder pain in radiating to your upper Arif I were your doctor I would prescribe pain medication for 1 week if it does not have a 100 cure effect on you, I will recommend physical therapy Good Luck

My husband has heart disease and is taking Lipitor , Lisinopril , Isororbide and Metoprolol . He has had a double bypass and two stents and most of his back heart valves are blocked. He is 67 years old. We are trying a vegan diet to possibly reverse his heart disease , but were concerned about which vitamin supplements he should be taking to ensure optimum health . thank you

Hi, As such no specific vitamin is related to Ischemic heart disease. However, one multivitamin tablet daily is advisable as restricted diet may not provide adequate daily requirement of vitamins. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hi, my daughter is 2.5 yrs old and has eczema since a year. Gradually she lost appetite and now has also lost weight and very fuzzy in eating. Her itchy skin has become better after a routine skincare regime and utmost care in and out. Using cetaphil cream, sometimes also olive oil, on her skin and Vit D drops everyday. Its been a year since she slept full night (I think because of both her itchy skin and hunger). Would you please help a distressed child and an overly exhausted mother of two, by prescribing a good medicine?

I have been taking Buproprion XL for clinical depression (as well as active counseling to help me deal with this) for many years. I also have been taking Aleve for my osteoarthritis. I have noticed that I now have tinnitus (mentioned it to my doctor at my yearly physical in January, but he either didn t pick up on it or didn t think it was a significant thing). Now I am reading that both of these medicines have a side effect of tinnitus, I stopped taking the Aleve in January after a flare-up of Microscopic colitis, and had hoped that this would clear up the tinnitus, but it has not. Buproprion XL has worked best of all the different antidepressants we ve tried over the years, so I m a bit apprehensive to stop that and go onto a different antidepressant. Is there something short of taking some other drug to help me with the tinnitus? So far, I am able to ignore it most times by thinking/hearing through or past it, but it isn t going away. What are your thoughts about this? (I had my 71st birthday in January as well). Well, I can go back to my own doctor if I have to pay, since insurance would pay for my visit. SO thank you anyway.
|
Hiit may be examined by an ENT specialist for ear Chat Doctor. It is possible that tinnitus is due to inner ear problem. For osteoarthritis, glucosamine tabs are good and physical therapy, heat , massage, mild exercises and for depression, ask your treating doctor for change of medicine with newer compounds like resperidonebest wishes

Thanks for writing to us. It could be due to disc herniation with nerve compression. Have you got any weakness in leg? I would suggest consulting the spine specialist earliest, and you may need to get X-ray / MRI spine. Right now start anti-inflammatory with muscle relaxant and if possible physiotherapy. Thanks.

hi, im 19 years .... i cannot retract my foreskin when penis is fully erect but i can do it in flaccid state. However,if id retract it every day for cleaning, that would cause fissures - the foreskin is sticking to the glans, so when it is retracted small pieces of the glans are tearing ... and it even got blood one time. Please tell me, should i do something different when i retract it ? Is it normal for foreskin to be sticked to the glans ? i am really afraid to retract it, i do it only 1 time per week maximum

Hi and. I think you are suffering from fibrosis, Mitosis is the inability to retract the foreskin behind the glans in males. Physiologic fibrosis is the normal condition in which child Chat Doctor. The inability of the foreskin to retract can lead to difficulty cleaning of the area which can cause Atlantis, there can be difficulty or painful urination, painful erection, or paraphimosis. Your doctor can diagnose fibrosis based on a thorough history and physical examination. Additional tests are usually not necessary. The first choice of treatment is usually a steroid ointment that is locally applied. This treatment has shown a success rate of over 70%. The ointment softens the foreskin and is applied for 4 to 6 weeks. Once full retraction is possible the ointment is discontinued. If the steroid treatment is not successful, a circumcision might be beneficial. When penis is fully erect the fore skin should retract without any problem, but in your case you have mentioned that you cannot retract it completely which is not normal. Please consult a surgeon, and he will examine you and may suggest a small surgical correction called Circumcision. After the surgery you will be discharged on the same day. Regards

Hello, It is likely that you are suffering from a generalized acute urticaria and angioedema episode. If there is no fever, abdominal pain or breathing trouble then the situation is not that serious, but apart from long acting antihistamines like Allegra, you will need corticosteroids to overcome this acute episode. Please see your doctor regarding this prescription. There are certain Chat Doctor. Thanks.

I am a 39 year old mother of two aged 5 and 15 years. I have a receding chin which was a major cause of concern for me affecting my confidence level. However, now Im planning to go for a genioplasty augmentation in two months time. What I would like to know is that at my age will the healing be much slower ?? Will I ever get back my lost sensation ? Please help since my family is against me going for it now. Please also let me know what are the other risks involved in sliding genioplasty at my age. Thankyou.
|
Hi, If you are otherwise healthy, then there should not be any issues with bone healing even at 39. The sliding angioplasty will be fixed with plates and screws to help keep it in place till the healing occurs. Another simpler option if you are only looking at cosmetic augmentation is to go with a Chin augmentation using implants. This would be a simpler option in the sense that there is no bone cutting involved. You can meet your local plastic surgeon to learn more about it. All the best for your procedure. Chat Doctor.

Hello, Immediately after the procedure transient lack of semen production can be seen. If problem persists we have to suspect injury to seminal vesicles or other sperm producing machinery. Consult a urologist and get evaluated. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

I have had a cough and mucus/flem issue from my nose and lungs for two months now. It has really started to hurt, it gets worse at night and once I start coughing it is hard to stop. I don t smoke and I m not around smoke. I sound like a smoker and would blame it on that or second hand if I was exposed to it, however, I m not. It is slowly worsening but my tissue use has slowed down. Do I have cancer :(

Hello dear, thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. In my opinion you should consult pulmonologist and get done 1. Clinical examination of respiratory system. 2. Chest x-ray 3. PUT (Pulmonary Function Test). By your symptoms and history, possibility of asthma or bronchitis is high. Chest x-ray is needed to rule out lung infection and lung cancer. PFT is needed for the diagnosis of asthma or bronchitis. It will also tell you about severity of the disease. And treatment is based on severity only. So get done PFT. You may need inhaled bronchodilators and antihistamines Chat Doctor. Don't worry, you will be alright. Consult pulmonologist and first diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment.

Im a 42 year old Male, I recently was diagnoised with a UTI, after a 2 weeks of antibiotics, i still have a buring sensation in my penis and it continues to throb all day. I went back to the Doctor and they said it could possibly be a prostate infection, and gave me 4 extra days of antibiotics, i seemed to be getting better but now after two weeks the burning is back
|
Hi, It seems that you might be having some chronic infection in your urinary tract or prostate. As antibiotic has poor action there might be having bacteria resistant to this medicine. Go for urine check up and culture sensitivity test. This will give specific bacteria causing this infection and specific antibiotic medicine working against these bacteria. After report go for antibiotic medicine course for long time to get permanent cure. Take plenty of water to flush out infection. Ok and take care.

Yes and thank you.My sister has had a tummy tuck,several years now,and an emergency surgrey in N.M.,for removal of an overy,after they got in they couldnt find one overy,explored a bit,had to go thru several layers of adhesions.The 40 min.surgrey turned into 4 hrs.Wow,did we freak!ok,now after this she has constant smelly drainage from her belly button and pain in her lower intestines,pain when having bowel movements,pain in her belly button,around and below it.She has been to consult,after consult and a couple more surgires to pinpoint the problem,to no avail ,I am worrried,she is my only sister and very dear to me,im scrared for her.
|
Hi. Thanks for your query and an elucidated history. Smelly discharge from the belly button and pain is suggestive of the following things :-Umbilical granuloma-Patent vitello-intestinal duct-Patent Uranus. In case of your sister with the history of multiple surgeries, it is possibly due to an infection. The bowel might have been stuck from bellow the incision line and causes pain ... A small fistula can lead to a recent discharge. Treatment is re-exploration and excision of the tract along with the umbilicus to get a cure

The last three months I was doing IUI treatment which I did 2 cycles but both were negative. In 2015 I did IUI and first try came back positive. So my question is does my age and overweight have to do anything with not be able to get pregnant this time or do I need to take medication to balance out my hormonals? Right now my wieght is 235 age 30 about to turn 31. In 2015 I weight 215 and was 29.
|
Hi there, I have understood your concern and I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.First do not panic. You are right in judging that increased weight can be on of the factors that can affect reproductive hormone system. Please opt for a healthy diet and regular exercise regimen. Include more portions of fruits and vegetables and salads in daily diet. Avoid refined sugars and deep-fried foods and bakery products in the diet. Please check height for weight, body mass index should be around 23. To know about the ovarian status, FSH LH AMH and prolactin levels should be done on day 2 of the cycle. Post menstrual HSGHysterosalpingography, will be of help to know about the patency of the Fallopian tubes. I hope this answer helps you. Thanks.

Hi, It could be a contusion. As of now you can use analgesics/anti-inflammatory combination like Diclofenac/Seratiopeptdase for symptomatic relief. If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated. In that case you might require an MRI scan. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

I woke up with pain in my upper back - between the shoulder blades - and in my chest. The pain is worse when i turn my torso or neck. it feels best when i am sitting up in bed on one of my sides. my back pain worsens when i lay flat on my back. i usually sleep about 6-7 hours a night, but last night i slept for 9 and woke up much later than i usually do (at 1:30pm rather than 7:30-8am). im a 25 year old female, nonsmoker, irregularly exercise, eat relatively healthy. Ive had a history of mild GERD, and stopped taking birth control pills last week because it was causing my resting heart rate to increase. Any idea what is causing this pain?
|
You could be having muscle spasms. Hey a X-ray of the spine in that region. Apply hot packs. Take painkillers for 5 days. Avoid turning to side and lifting weights. Consult your Orthopedic surgeon.

Hi. Thanks for your query. This is certainly suggestive of a spreading infection or reaction. You should consult a Doctor to make sure a diagnosis by clinical examination.

Im having really bad chest pains to the left side right under my breast, and also having shortness of breath. It hurts for me to breath in, kinda feels like someone is squeezing my heart. Any idea what could be wrong or how i can get rid of the feeling?
|
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. You're all symptoms are suggestive of heart disease (angina, Coronary artery disease - CAD, congestive heart failure - CHF). So consult cardiologist and get done blood pressure monitoring, ECG, 2d echo and stress test. If all these are normal then no need to worry about heart diseases. Sometimes anxiety and panic disorder can also cause similar symptoms. So avoid stress and tension, be relaxed and calm. Don't worry, you will be alright with all these but first rule out heart diseases. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.

My period was a week late in February and then two weeks later I was having brown blood spotting, and sometimes is was a pinkish red. This lasted for about a week. Im starting to have headaches, be really tired all of the time, and my lower back hurts. Ive been feeling really nauseous the last couple of days and have a heightend sense of smell. I dont know if these may be pregnancy signs or not tho. Do you think you could help clarify for me?
|
Hello, I have gone through your query and understood the concern. If you have always been regular with your cycles and are sexually active, you need to exclude/confirm pregnancy in the current scenario. An estimation of the serum beta-ChatDoctor titles along with a trans-vaginal sonogram is the best way out to clarify the situation. Your symptoms can happen with a very early pregnancy, but a proper confirmation is necessary. If positive, this spotting should be monitored, the viability of the pregnancy assessed and further management given. Hope this helps.

Your symptoms can happen with a very early pregnancy, but a proper confirmation is necessary. If positive, this spotting should be monitored, the viability of the pregnancy assessed and further management given. Hope this helps.

I have this weird whooshing feeling in my left temple. Like, a little bit of pressure all the time, but every once in a while it speeds up to a whoosh like bugs or something are crawling outwards from the temple. It doesn t hurt, it just feels really weird. If it s just stress or anxiety then so be it. Just concerned it might be something more.
|
Hello The symptoms you have described like whooshing feeling in left temporal region and pressure are not typical symptoms of anxiety. They may occur due to other illness, it may be Migraine like headache, due to some somatic symptoms of depression, High Blood pressure, anemia etc. I would advise you to please mention your symptoms in detail or visit a good Psychiatrist for proper evaluation of symptoms. Thanks

dear sir my LFT test shows following abnormalities... Bilirubin Total: 0.27mg/dl (0-1.2) Conjugated (D bilirubin): 0.09 mg/dl (0.0-0.25) unConjugated(ID Bilirubin):0.18mg/dl (0.0-0.70) Total Protein: 8.12 gm/dl (6.6-8.3) Albumin : 4.22 gm/dl (3.4-4.8) globulin 3.9H (2.3-3.5) A/G ratio: 1.082H SGOT: 138.0H (0-32) SGPT: 166.0H(0-33) Alkaline Phosphate: 212.0 H (35-104) Gamma GT: 97.0H (6-42)

I had a couple of molars removed several years ago. The dentist had to cut part of my jaw bone away to get one tooth out. Now, for the first time, I have a small hole there that is painful like a cancer sore. E-mail address is YYYY@YYYY
|
Hithanks for writing in. In complicated extractions bone cutting is done, but it heals with passage of time. Still if you have this problem, do warm saline rinses thrice a day. Start with a course of antibiotic & analgesicConsult your dentist for further examination & treatment plan. Regards

i have a severe sneezing problem and i use to have continuous 20-30 time ........i have checked with doctors earlier n they said allergic problem......bt i didnt get any proper medicine. at the same time i got severe pain in my head n not able to concentrate....... my back also pains at the same time...... earlier i had pneumonia attack twice ....... n nowadays even eating fruits cause me sneezing...........plz advice me whts to do
|
Hi, Thanks for posting your query. With the available described symptoms, there appears to possibility of allergic Rhinitis. Persistent sneezing with associated headache suggests the diagnosis. You should consult with internal medicine specialist/ ENT surgeon and should go for thorough check up. You should go for chest x-ray, erythrocyte sedimentation rate and complete blood count. As such there appears to the least correlation between present symptoms and past history of pneumonia. You should take montelukast with levocetrizine, Milton for relief of your symptoms. Sneezing relief also cures headache. You should also use Elastane nasal spray. Take steam inhalation for better relief. Take care,

My 7 year old son has had a constant virus since the middle of January. It consists of severe headache, fever (100-102), sore throat, vomiting and fatigue. He has seen his pediatrician multiple times and has been tested for strep each time. The strep test has been negative each time. He recently had blood tests conducted and all of the results came back normal. The symptoms seem to get better after 4-5 days and then 2 weeks later he has them all over again. I am extremely concerned and not sure what more to do.
|
HI...by what you quote I feel that your son might be having a recurrent viral illness. To relieve your distress I will tell you how a viral illness behaves. So that you will be in a better position to understand. Fever of few days without any localizing signs could as well a viral illness. Usually rather than fever, what is more important is the activity of the child, in between 2 fever episodes on the same day. If the kid is active and playing around when there is no fever, it is probably viral illness and it doesn't require antibiotics at all. Once viral fever comes it will there for 4-7 days. So do not worry about duration if the kid is active. Regards -

1. I have notice a pea size lump that has traveled in both legs notice mostly in my groin and thigh at different times. IS this a clout???? I am also a heart patient with a stent in my main artery. Cardiac cath last performed last year stenos is constantly showing 40 percent. 2. How relevant is this or how dangerous.???? 3.

Hi, Dear,Thanks for the query to My Chat Doctor Clinic. I studied your query in depth. I feel concerned about the worry you expressed. In my opinion-1-the lump in your groin and thigh in both lower limbs-doesnt appear to b a clot. To opine on it more info is needed about it.2-As such this fear is irrelevant and it's not a moving clot-as thought by you.3-The spasms you get need to be consulted from your cardiologists who put the stent. In my opinion if appears more of neurosis or anxiety related-as they are all over and untimely. Treatment-would be-a-Consult your cardiologist at earliest.b-Tb-Ranx -500 mg if the spasms or the discomfort recurs and for the time being Only.Don't use after consulting your Cardiologist-as its temporary advise. Hope this would help your query. Wellcome for more queries to Chat Doctor. Have a good day.

2-3mm right disc herniation at L3-L4 level related to proximal desending right sided nerve root what is done for this. also multilevel lumbar spondylitic changes lateral disc herniation. Lateral herniation at L2 L3 YYYY@YYYY mullti level spondylitic changes an disc bulging at other levels Female 54 years old
|
Thank you for contacting Chat Doctor. The report describes multi-level disc prolapse with nerve root compression and spondylitic changes. Treatment depends on symptoms and examination findings. In the initial phase, physiotherapy is very useful. This includes back extension exercises, traction and use of treatments like IT, ultrasound to relieve pain. You can get more details after contacting your physiotherapist. If the patient has pain, neuropathic pain medications are useful. This includes pregabalin, gabapentin, amitriptyline, etc. These are prescription medications and your GP/neurologist can prescribe them. In about 10% of cases, surgery may be required. Surgery is required in patients where medical treatment has failed or if there is severe leg pain, or as decided on the basis of clinical examination. Best wishes, Chat Doctor.

Dear Sir, I have been suffering from TB. I have gone through Pre Employment Medical Test Ffor middle east. The medical center had given me UNFIT report due to Spot on Lungs (Fibrotic Shadow) I s there any medicine to vanish this spot by treatment. Best Regards
|
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. Sorry to say, but there are no medicines available to remove these scars. Scar tissue is dead tissue and so harmless that's why medicines are not available as it is not a disease. It is due to heal process. In lung tissue any insult like infection, trauma can produce healing by either fibrosis or calcification. And these gives' appearance of scar tissue on chest x-ray. And this will remain as it is throughout the life. One thing you can do. Get done CT THORAX and bronchoscopy with BAD (BronchoAlveolar Lavage) analysis for TB. If both these are negative than you can assure medical center that you are not having active TB, the scar tissue is old lesion only.

I have recently noticed what appears to be a discharge from my penis, its black and looks like it consists of filament like material. I had a urethoplasty 9 years ago with no problems since. I do have a bladder diverticulum that Ive had for about 15 years (this apparantly caused the stricture or vice versa). Anyway, back to the discharge, it is painless, no pain upon urination, no erection problems. The amount of discharge is minute and occurs about once every three days. It is relegated to the head of the penis, usually around the opening. Due to my urological history, I am followed pretty closely. An MRI done about three weeks ago showed no abnormalities. Any ideas? I am not currently sexually active since I broke up with my girlfriend about a year ago; we were both monogamous and we were together for about 10 years.

Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor forum. You had arthroplasty 9 years ago. You also had diverticula of bladder, and stricture urethra 15 years back. Now you have got pain less, color less discharge, which is sticky. It may not have any relation with the previous incidents. As you describe it appears to be the physiological, discharge of the prostate gland which usually comes before the semen comes, as you are lack of sex it might be appearing like this. Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.

I have a chronic infection of Staph Aureus in my lower spine for which I have been treated since 2010. In the past three months I have developed pain in both jaws as well as teeth. It started as an occasional occurance, and is now nearly constant. It is a sharp piercing pain. Could it be related to my infection? I hate to bother my infectious disease doc as he is so busy, but it feels too widespread for my dentist. Suggestions? Advice? Thank you.
|
It could be related to spread of the Staph aureus, in which case I am sure your infectious disease doctor would want to know about it. But I recommend you do check first with your dentist, as it could be something else. You could have temporomandibular joint syn Chat Doctor. This can cause pain in teeth and jaws. The dentist can get a panning x-ray view of your jaws and all your teeth and see if this is a possibility. Treatment would be quite different, as this is not an infection. A dentist could also check for other conditions that could be causing the pain. I suggest you start there before assuming this is spread of the staph. Hope this helps.

I feel like Im pregnant. I had sex 1 weeks ago but I have some symptoms. I cant tell my mom & I need some home remedies to abort the child. Im on birth control but I was taking it 3 hours apart everyday & you arent supposed to do that. No condom was used
|
Headfirst of all Purchase a Urine Pregnancy Test kit and confirm the pregnancy, or lac of thereafter. For all you know, you might not be pregnant at all. That is after you have missed your period. Best time to test for pregnancy is 3 weeks after an unprotected sex for best and accurate results. Secondly, abortion is no joke to be done at home using home remedies. There are certain protocols to be followed. If you find the result positive then approach a Gynecologist for help. There are pills available, but this can not be purchased/ consumed without a doctors' guidance. Follow what he/she advises you to. Thirdly, Try to relax. Stress delays period. Try to ensure discipline in your contraceptive practice to avoid such stress. Hope this was helpful. Warm Regards Chat Doctor.

### Question: I feel like Im pregnant. I had sex 1 weeks ago but I have some symptoms. I cant tell my mom & I need some home remedies to abort the child. Im on birth control but I was taking it 3 hours apart everyday & you arent supposed to do that. No condom was used
### Answer: Headfirst of all Purchase a Urine Pregnancy Test kit and confirm the pregnancy, or lac of thereafter. For all you know, you might not be pregnant at all. That is after you have missed your period. Best time to test for pregnancy is 3 weeks after an unprotected sex for best and accurate results. Secondly, abortion is no joke to be done at home using home remedies. There are certain protocols to be followed. If you find the result positive then approach a Gynecologist for help. There are pills available, but this can not be purchased/ consumed without a doctors' guidance. Follow what he/she advises you to. Thirdly, Try to relax. Stress delays period. Try to ensure discipline in your contraceptive practice to avoid such stress. Hope this was helpful. Warm Regards Chat Doctor.

I have a really achey back and strong pains in my chest, i feel like i have a blocked throat0 it feels really tight, and i have a blocked and runny nose. On top of that, i feel really sick, im worried to eat anything because i just feel like ill throw it up. Any ideas on what this could be and anything i could take to help?

It s pratishyaya and school in Ayurveda and in modern words called Catarrh. Simply decoction of holy basil leaves and Gilroy (diaspora Cordelia) twice or thrice will set it right in few days. No side effects at all. For catarrh only anti-allergic is given with analgesics which has symptomatic and temporary relief only. Hope it guides you well.

Hi, Medicines usually do not work on angiokeratoma, it has to be removed by laser or ELECTROFILTRATION. Hope it helps. If you have any other question please do not hesitate to contact us.

I take lisinopril , generic prozac , multivitamis for adults over 50, glucosamine chondroitin and claritin. Do any of these drugs cause high calcium. I am 60, 80 to 100 pounds over weight and had breast cancer when I was 35. It was an invasive tumor 2.5 cm and I had a modified right breast mastectomy, No chem or radiation tx. My Dr. did blood tests and told me my calcium was 10, something 5 days ago.
