My baby is 1yr. old (12months). For last 2 days she is having loose motions. I don t know whether to call it as loose motion but she is having toilet 3-4 times a day. Toilet smells badly. Also colour of toilet is Blackish Green, Yellow and also it is sticky. Please let me know what kind of food shall i give to her. I normally used to feed her milk, Dal/Rice, Fruit(banana/Apple), Khir etc.	Hi, Does she have fever or vomiting? Does the stool contain blood or mucus? Is there any abdominal pain or discomfort while pooping? If no above said symptoms, this need not be taken as significant. Some change in stool frequency, colour or consistency is common once in a while, and need not be worried about. You can continue the same feeds as before. If stool is too loose, reducing amount or withholding fruits for few days might help. Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hello. I kicked something and now my foot is slightly swollen, slightly bruised, but definitely sore. I cannot bend my big toe (which is the area where the pain originates, in the foot part just below my big toe) not because of the pain, but I physically cannot make it bend. It hurts to walk on the affected area but I can walk. I just cannot put weight on the big toe. It is painful with a mixture between dull and achy and suddenly sharp or throbbing. Though, I took a Vicodin and the pain is a lot better. The pain is more localized and the areas around it hurt less allowing me to put weight on those areas. Does this sound more like it could be a sprain since the pain medication helped with almost all of the pain aside from the milder pain I feel in the location of the bruise and swelling?	Dear patient You have injured your foot more so your great toe and possibility of fracture cannot be ruled out since pain is not relieved. I would advise X-ray of involved foot anteroposterior and oblique views to confirm diagnosis. If it shows fracture you need to consult expert orthopedic surgeon with report. If its normal diagnosis is sprain and recommended treatment is rest for 2 weeks and tab diclofenac 50 mg twice a day for 5 days. All the best.

18 month old more tired and cranky than usual. Other than the end of a cold, she s healthy. She normally sleeps 11 hours at night, with a 2 hour nap. For the past 2 days, she has slept 12-13 hours at night with an almost 3 hour nap. She s normally quite pleasant, but has recently been cranky and even laying around some when awake. She s asking for milk more...seems hungry. Growth spurt? Other ideas would be appreciated!	Hi, thank you for choosing Chat Doctor.Sometimes kids are more hungry and cranky without an apparent reason. But just look for any ear ache or pain while passing urine which can make kids irritable and are usually missed. If she is not having these, then she is in the recovery phase from her cold which has increased her appetite. Just give her an extra meal for another week or so before going to sleep. Hope this has helped you. Your vote of thanks is appreciated, Good luck, Chat Doctor.

I ve noticed a small hard lump on the outside of my left upper biceps for several weeks now. The skin over and around the lump are was suddenly darkened with what seemed like some sort of bleeding under the skin. A week ago, a doctor told me it was nothing more that a few tiny ruptured blood vessels from possibly a trauma to the arm and that the large dark stain should clear up in 2 to 3 weeks. Well the dark patch has almost cleared up now but the relatively painless lump remains. The lump can only be felt by running a finger over the area because it is invisible from outside. What do you think please? By the way, I broke my middle finger on the same arm about a year ago and had a lot of numbness and stiffness after POP removal. Although the finger movement remains somewhat stiff, I can t relate it to the biceps lump. Sorry for the long explanation, thank you.	Hi Reading your description of the lump and its progressive history- To me, it appears as torn biceps long head at the shoulder joint. It will remain as a lump and become prominent only of flexing your arm. It is painless and harmless and requires no treatment. The discoloration in the skin was due to bleeding in the area which has resorted now.

I was recently diagnosed with a pituitary tumor, after going to a neurologist his assistant informed me that it is not a pituitary tumor but it next to it by my brain...The reason I even found out about this is through an MRI I had because of vision issues that I am having (double vision) the thing is this is the third incident it seems to come and go with the first time being in 2009, the second in 2011, both with pregnancies, and now this time while I was on an appetite suppressant. What do you think	Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. If you had double vision, the tumor infiltrated cavernous sinus, and treatment depends on the kind of tumor. In that area three are the most probable lesions: Pituitary tumor, Meningioma and Chraniopharyngioma. If the size of tumor is small (below 3 cm) it could be treated by Radiosurgery, if it is greater than 3 cm it needs surgery.Don't delay treatment because there is a serious risk of blindness. Consult a Neurosurgeon. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.

hi, i have 23 years old , i practice fitness ,, i feel an instability on my knees while walking , i feel a weakness too on my legs , i have a flat feet , when i woke up i feel that my left knee is blooked , but when i m walking and movinig it in a while i lost that feeling , and it s comes over when i set to mush or after sleeping , and when change the shoes for exmple my knees come to pain on the miniscal tears i think , i m suffring can you help doctors ?	Hello, I have studied your case. As per your age and history there is possibility of soft tissue injury in knee. Most commonly meniscus injury occurs. As per your symptoms you need to do physiotherapy and knee exercises to improve range of motion. If pain persist then you may need to do MRI again to see for any functional defect. Small meniscus tear can be managed conservatively with physiotherapy with USG and TENS. Meniscus injury can be managed by arthroscopic repair, and same day you can go home. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health.

Hi, i have pain accross the middle of my back just under my lungs, it isnt there all the time, when i sit on my knees and stretch forward then try and straighten myself, it seems to hurt then, i have been told by the doctor that my lungs are clear. What could this be?	Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Possibility of musculoskeletal pain is more likely because your pain is associated with specific position and movement. So avoid movements causing pain. Avoid sudden jerky movements of chest. Avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise. Apply warm water pad on affected areas of chest. Take simple painkiller like paracetamol or ibuprofen.Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.

I am a 62 years old Male. I underwent a brain MRI examination the outcome was: Few tiny hyperintense foci are seen in both frontoparietal and left anterior peri insular white matter, which appear to be ischaemic/nonspecific, with none showing restricted diffusion. Question : What does that mean?	Hi, Thank you for posting your query. I have noted your MRI brain findings. I would like to reassure you that these findings are not significant and do not represent any serious brain disease. I would like to know your clinical details (history and examination findings) in order to completely interpret your MRI findings. Hyperintense loci on MRI are most often due to migraine and ischemia (lack of blood flow to brain). Ischemia of brain occurs in people with high BP and sugars. At this stage, you need to keep your blood pressure and sugar under good control. In addition, aspirin tablets may be taken to prevent further ischemia. I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow-up queries or if you require any additional information. Wishing you good health, Chat Doctor.

I truly believe my brother has a paranoid behavioral disorder. How can I get him the help he needs? He is currently taking meds for anxiety and Atavan. He has begun the process of counseling however he continues to suffer major meltdowns daily, not able to be alone, maintain a job and daily living skills are difficult for him.	He may have a psychotic illness. However, reaching to a diagnosis and treatment plan need more information about his behavior and illness and interviewing him. Get back to me with more information like duration and nature of illness, does he talk to himself, more details about his suspicious behavior, how does he spend his day at home, any addiction? Etc.

I HAVE A VEIN ON THE LEFT SIDE OF MY CHEST THAT IS VISIBLE AND IS SORE. I JUST HAD A STRESS TEST DONE AND EVERYTHING IS NORMAL WITH MY HEASRT. THE AREA IS VERY SORE TO THE TOUCH. I ALSO HAVE BEEN HAVING FLUTTERING SPASMS JUST UNDER THE LEFT BREAST AREA. I AM A 53 YEAR OLD MALE.	Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. No need to worry about heart diseases because your stress test is normal. Possibility of skin infection like herpes zoster is more in your case. It is viral infection of skin caused by skin contact.

So better to consult dermatologist and get done clinical examination of your local part. You may need antiviral, painkiller and anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor. Hope I have solved your query.

I have a flat red rash scattered about my inner upper arms. It s not a lot,but it also seems to have a very faint red rash looking are around the general area of the more prominent spots. It doesn t itch.Could it be a type of heat rash or something more serious? Thank you for your expertise in considering my question.

Four years ago I had protected sex with a woman (I am male) and 3 days later had a terrible burning sensation on my penis and testicles. No rash or discharge, just terrible skin burning. Since then, it has come and gone, but always been slightly present. Sometimes, however, it becomes intolerable. I have been tested for all STDs several times, prostatitis and herpes four times - always with negative results. In fact, the most recent herpes blood test was done in December 2010, with negative results for both HSV1 and HSV2. I have also visited a urologist who did no tests and told me it was probably not a urology problem. A neurologist did some minor tests but found nothing. There are no marks, no lesions, no spots, no discharge, no bumps or anything other than an incredibly painful penis and testicles. Occasionally it "feels" like there are cuts or tears, but there has never actually been any. Sometimes, when I am standing it feels a little less painful. When I am sitting, the burning can also be felt in the thighs. Do you have ANY idea what this might be or what I could try to alleviate it? It has been many years and I am at my wits end. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.	Hello, It could be an urethritis. If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated. As of now Chat Doctor.

my husband just had an angiogram. They did not put stint because there was more blockage than expected. Is it normal for him to change sleeping habits. He is falling asleep in a second. This has never happened to him. We have been married for 26 years.	Hi Their understand your concern for your husband I would like to tell you that angiogram is only a diagnostic procedure that has no effect on sleeping pattern. You must check his blood pressure if it is staying low or go through his medicines if he was prescribed any sedatives' medicine if yes then consult with his treating doctor and ask if he can stop using that medicine. Hopefully this will help Kind Regards Chat Doctor.

This is more a dentist question: I bashed the gum behind a back tooth the other week because of over brushing, and now the abscess has gone/stopped hurting it has left a kind of hole which fills with plaque and at the bottom as a couple of black dots in it. Nb I had my wisdom teeth taken out when I was a teenager (I an now 28). I am arranging to go to a dentist for next weekend for them to see what is going on. My question is what could this hole be? Can it be filled in? Are the black dots I see nerve endings or blood vessel endings from when I had my teeth out?	Hello, As you are mentioning that you have noticed a hole inside the tooth with black dots, it looks like that there is tooth decay present there means cavity has been started. You should visit a good dentist to get it restored, as otherwise it will create other problems. Hope it will help you.

I need to consult psychiatrist for my brother My brother is 34 yrs old. He gets angry and becomes irritated on small small issues. He is working in a call centre. He had polio but after the polio has been treated he is become more short tempered kind of a person. he abuses when he is driving when someone overtakes him. we need some suggestion for his sudden mood change prob. He is very noble hearted person but when he gets angry he himself dont know how is is behaving with his elders but when he calms down he aplogise for his behaviour. He do not drink or smoke . Please advise?	Hello ~ It seems like your brother has an anger management problem and impulsively becomes angry at little things. However, it also seems like these anger episodes are predictable, which makes it amenable to treatment. I suggest that your brother take anger management classes or complete a do-it-yourself book for anger management. It is helpful to consult a psychiatrist if you or your brother feels like this is not helping and medications may hold a key to the question of anger. I hope this helps. Take care.

Please advise? ### Answer: Hello ~ It seems like your brother has an anger management problem and impulsively becomes angry at little things. However, it also seems like these anger episodes are predictable, which makes it amenable to treatment. I suggest that your brother take anger management classes or complete a do-it-yourself book for anger management. It is helpful to consult a psychiatrist if you or your brother feels like this is not helping and medications may hold a key to the question of anger. I hope this helps. Take care.

My boyfriend is 23 years old and he came home from work complaining about a pain from his belly button to the tip of his penis. He explained it as a pulling sensation and it hurts worse when he leans backwards (stretching) I ve had kidney stones before and was wondering if that s what it is but he didn t have any pain in his kidney area recently.	Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. Thanks for the query. It is hard to say. If this is acute pain then it can be beginning of appendicitis and kidney stones are typically located in lumbar area. It may be cystitis, so it would be good to do urinalysis. Wish you good health.

I do not have a mirror where I can see what it looks like but behind my ear I have a discharge, infection. When I used an alcohol pad to clean behind my ear the pad had a brownish color to it. Behind my ear burns and hurts when I try to clean it. Is this a fungal or bacterial infection? I continuously have problems with my inner ears. I had an ENT to tell me it was allergy related. I have severe allergies and my inner ear problems (itching mostly) only occurs when my allergies flare up. I have been prescribed Clotrimazole and Betamethasone Dipropionate Cream to place in my ears when the itching inside the ears happen. Could the two be related?	Hi there. It appears that you may be having fungal infection in the outer ear fold. This could result from sweat accumulation, seborrhea dermatitis and lack of hygiene. While showering, do clean behind ears as otherwise infection may develop. If you have severe Dan Chat Doctor. Keep the area clean. Wipe regularly with clean, soft cloth. Eat balanced diet.

my sister 47 had gallbladder stage 2 cancer, had surgery done and after 1 year she got liver metasis, she is now at the hospital, cause had an infection of the bile, a stunt was placed to drain infection, she had received 2 types of chemo for 3 months, but did not workNow taking Tarceva and should start pallitive chemo once she is better stage. My concern is that she is retaining fluid her belly is swollen, her ankles pratically all over. Is there anything that can be done, what does this mean for her life.She is not taking any other medications. She is strong and she is positive on all this. Would she be a candidate for liver transplant.TksVicky	1) palliative chemotherapy is for stage-4 cancers where there is no any other treatment option is available to cure cancer. Purpose of it is to relieve symptoms of patients and to improve quality of life. Palliative chemotherapy is not better stage.2) gall bladder cancer with liver metastasis is aggressive disease. It might affect liver function (formation of new proteins) depending upon spread of liver metastasis. Symptoms of fluid in belly, ankle swelling suggest less protein in body.3) she is candidate for palliative chemotherapy (but consider location and spread of metastasis in liver)	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: my sister 47 had gallbladder stage 2 cancer, had surgery done and after 1 year she got liver metasis, she is now at the hospital, cause had an infection of the bile, a stunt was placed to drain infection, she had received 2 types of chemo for 3 months, but did not workNow taking Tarceva and should start pallitive chemo once she is better stage.
