I have a discomfort left side below ribs. Sometimes it is really uncomfortable. Comes and goes and has done so for a couple of years. I feel bloated and pass a lot of wind. Notice it more when sitting at work (computer operator) and when I m feeling stressed. I have put on weight and always tired. My doctor pressed around my stomach and didn t feel anything. Im 58, female	Hi, thank you for providing the brief history of you. A thorough musculoskeletal assessment is advised. As you mentioned your symptoms and also visited the doctor which was nothing serious, I feel it must be just gastritis. As you have put on weight, you are always tired and your age is 58, I feel your metabolism is slow and needs an attention. Performing regular exercises, yoga, meditation, aerobics, etc. will help improve your metabolism. Also, on a longer run, your pain and aches which may trouble you due to aging will be delayed or avoided. For improving the bodies metabolism, one needs to perform exercises. In my clinical practice I meet regularly patients with similar complaints, and I put them on physical therapy, after 4-6 weeks of time, the feel better and energetic. Also, exercise will help lose weight and look brighter. RegardsJay In Chat Doctor.

Hi. My scrotum and the area directly between my legs itch. There are now two hard lumps very close to my scrotum between my legs. They itch. I have had itching there in the past but it would pass in a few weeks. This time it will not go away. Also never had the hard lumps either. These just appeared recently. This itching has been going on for about two months. What could it be. I am beginning to worry. Oh and the lumps are small maybe 1/4" and under the skin only.	Thanks for contacting Chat Doctor with you medical questions. I am sorry to hear that you are having problems with itch and lumps around your scrotum area. From your description the itch is caused from a fungal infection in the groin area. This is commonly known as Tina courts or jock itch. The fungus likes to grow in dark warm moist areas and the groin is a perfect area for fungus. This growth of fungus can occur after excessive sweating or after taking antibiotics. In my practice I usually treat the area with Inaction or Tamil. These are antifungal preparations used twice a day until the area is healed. Also keep the area as Chat Doctor. The two lumps that you have could be the lymph nodes that are trying to fight the infection. Once you get the infection under control and cured the lumps should also go away in a week or two. Hope this answers your question. Please contact us again with your medical concerns and questions	If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patient's description.	### INSTRUCTION: If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patient's description. ### Question: Hi.

My son had a sports physical and the doctor said, your testes are smaller than other kids your age. He is 17. My son did not ask, and this doctor in my opinion was very wrong to say this unless sure. Can doctors tell very quickly if testes are so small that need testng	Hittites size varies among individuals. It is not the size but whether it functions properly or not that matters. The testis produces sperms as well as hormones. Hormone function is tested by blood tests and sperm function by semen analysis. Asking your son to get these tests done might be too traumatic mentally for him if he has not got any symptoms.Hence, I would not advise you these tests now. If you are still worried then you can get an ultrasound of the testis done that will rule out any major problem with testicles but not confirm whether it is a small testicle or not.

I have a hx of kidney stones, was having flank pain yesterday. went to the ED, they did a CT scan, was negative for kidney stone. I continued to have pain, all through the night.

My son suffered serious traumatic cerebral haemorrhage after hitting his head on the tatami mat while performing physical combat training. The injury happened on 12th Oct 2012. He underwent an emergency surgery to remove blood clot. Portion of his left side skull was removed during the process. Subsequent he underwent 5 more surgeries on the head in the last 85days. After the crynoplasty on 7th Dec 2012, he developed flickering of lips & tongue in addition to the previously started shivering of left hand & right leg. Need ur advice on cause & what medication for total recovery.	Hi, Thank you for posting your query. It is good to note that your son is recovering well from the traumatic brain injury. Also, he has withstood five surgeries! Regarding the flickering of lips and tongue, they could be due to partial (or focal) seizures. This is often due to scar in the brain caused either by the trauma or the effect of surgery. Treatment would be with anti-epileptic medications. Please discuss these issues with his doctor.

I am an 84 year old male with a high IQ. The first sign of memory issues occurred at age 12 when I got into a dispute with the English teacher becasue I said I could not memorize a poem. Memory issues were more pronounced in high school where memory became more important. But I got through high school and college with a B to B+ average. If I have ADHD, I have managed to overcome it pretty well, except for being disorganized all the time. Disorganization, impulsivity remain. But memory issues are increasing in the past couple years. I wonder if ADHD is affecting my memory more now but it might be helped with ADHD RX.	Hi, The likelihood that ADHD is the culprit to any memory problems you are currently having at age 84 is very unlikely. I would recommend a good assessment by a neurologist in your area who can apply simple bedside cognitive testing and if necessary refer you to the services of a NEUROPSYCHOLOGIST who can usually perform or even more detailed and ample testing in order to rule out more common problems of memory dysfunction for your particular situation. The neurologist will likely engage in blood work and even urine testing looking at specific levels of things such as B12, vitamin D, testosterone, and thyroid hormones, electrolytes, liver and renal enzymes-in addition to the possible presence of a chronic subclinical urinary tract infection, etc. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

I read your question carefully, and I understand your concern. Since you say that all tests have resulted normal (since you do not say which tests I will have to assume that all the necessary tests to exclude secondary hypertension were done) then your case can be considered essential hypertension. As for treatment with Atenolol, yes, it is one of the most used treatments, among the safest ones and particularly suitable for your age. So you can continue taking it, of course monitoring blood pressure from time to time and having regular check-ups with your primary doctor. I hope to have been of help.

Hi, I woke up this morning with sharp stomach pains. The pain was about 2 to the right of my belly button. I started getting dizzy as if I was going to pass out.. I took some Advil and laid down. After a couple of hours, the pain has decreased but has spread all across my stomach and has since moved to my left side as well as my back. It s not hurting as bad as this morning, but is still noticeable.	Hi, Thanks for the query. I understand the pain you are going through. Any pain in abdomen should not be taken lightly. Painkillers may reduce the pain for some time. But they are also masking the actual problem. You have also mentioned that pain has spread all over the abdomen though reduced in intensity. It shows that the problem still persists. Are you having fever? Is there any problem while passing urine? A lot of questions needs to be answered before finding the exact problem. I would suggest you to consult a gastroenterologist at the earliest. Your condition needs to be examined properly. You might have to undergo ultrasonography of abdomen to pinpoint the cause of pain. Meanwhile, avoid spicy and oily food. Chat Doctor. Hope I have been of some help to you. Let me know if I can assist you further. Thank you.

An acute vs chronic attack of cholecystitis (inflammation of the gallbladder) secondary to cholelithiasis (gallstones) must be considered. It is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general surgeon, for physical examination and clinical evaluation. Diagnostics (such as ultrasound, liver function tests, alkaline phosphatase, complete blood count, etc.) and management (medical and/or surgical if indications are found) will be directed accordingly. Definitive treatment is cholecystectomy or surgical removal of the gallbladder. It could be done laparoscopically (gold standard) or through open technique.

I am 57 yrs. old and get mammograms regularly,about 5 yrs ago my right nipple stopped protruding when stimulated and if squeezed white creamy smelly stuff came out,I told my dr. she said to just leave it alone,about a week ago it felt sore and when I looked it was prodruded out and in the middle of my nipple is a red sore hard bump?	Dear Ma'am, Sorry to hear about your problem. The symptoms which you are describing can be explained due to two conditions. One is known as duct Eurasia, and it commonly occurs around the time of menopause and can lead to the formation of abscesses (red, painful sum) close to the nipple associated with discharge. There is also a small possibility of it being cancer. My advice to you would be to visit your breast surgeon and have your condition evaluated. In addition, get a mammogram and a sonomammogram.

Im 16 and I may have circumvallate papillae. Ive done some research and viewed some images of what it looks like and it looks very similar to what I have. My question is how does this happen -like getting them and such- and if theres any way to get rid of them.	With your query, circumvallate papillae are the large among all the other papillae and located at the posterior most part of tongue. They form by birth during the embryonic stages itself and one cannot get rid of these unless as an namely or defect. Hope this helps you.
