As the dog was bitten 7 years back, and you are not having any symptoms of rabies, you will not develop rabies in the future. But you shouldn't take risk with these diseases, because it is 100% fatal, but it is 100% preventable with proper management. As you have taken antirabies vaccine for the current cat scratch, complete the course of vaccination. Thank you. |

ηζθΏ°εηι«εΈει‘γ | Hello, My wife was doing some working activies in the lounging room and suddenly she accidentally hits the sofa pole. Her knee is now swollen and it is getting a bit bigger day by day. 3 days have passed. What is your recommendation please? Eventually we are thinking about doing an X ray. Thanks for a kind answer | Hello dear, The symptoms as mentioned in your post can be attributed to accumulation of fluid in the knee joint, secondary to the musculoskeletal injury.X-ray of the knee joint will be helpful to rule out any fracture or other pathological causes. Symptomatic relief can be obtained by heat therapy, application of analgesic & muscle relaxant gel, intake of analgesics like Diclofenac+ Serratiopeptidase (to be taken after food) and Pantoprazole (to be taken 30 minutes before meals). Supplements of Calcium & vitamin D can be included in diet which will help in strengthening of bones. Physiotherapy exercise will also be helpful. If symptoms still persist, kindly consult an Orthopedic for proper clinical examination.Also, she should maintain adequate HY Chat Doctor. Wishing her a Good Health. Take care. |

ηζθΏ°εηι«εΈει‘γ | last month i was suffering from urinary track infection. pus cells in urine very very high due to which irritation occured how ever I had undergone medication with injections. Now everything is normal but my sperm quality is very thin like water. How can I improve this like before. | HelloThanks for query. You had severe UTI very recently which was treated successful with antibiotics, Now you have noticed your semen to be watery. This is mostly due to infection of seminal vesicle and prostate and testicles which exist simultaneously with UTI. The main three components of semen are 1) Sperms produced by testicles 2) Fructose by seminal vesicle 3) Prostatic fluid containing PAs secreted by prostate It takes 4-6 weeks for seminal vesicle and prostate to regain their normal function to have semen of normal viscosity after the infection is being eradicated completely.

Fat-free diet, carboy Chat Doctor. Inflammation will subside by its own over period of time, but it is necessary to find out exact cause for this liver inflammation.4) Fat deposition in liver is due to either increased fat content in diet or abnormal metabolism of fat in liver.5) Inflammation in liver is due to many reasons i.e. alcohol, viral infection, spread of inflammation from nearby region. Hope I answered your query. If you have any further doubts, I would be happy to help you. Have a nice day! |

ηζθΏ°εηι«εΈει‘γ | Hello! I am awaiting test results for CADASIL, have been watching my nephew for several years as he complains of several of the same issues I ve had for years (headaches, leg pain, etc...). His father seems fine. Do you know what the odds would be of my nephew having CADASIL? It has been confirmed in my cousins. | Hello, If the father of your nephew is not diagnosed with CDA SIL, your nephew is very unlikely to have it (unless his mother is diagnosed with CADA SIL). This because CADA SIL is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. This means that having a mutation in only one copy of the responsible gene in each cell is enough to cause CADA SIL.

ηζθΏ°εηι«εΈει‘γ | I recently 2 months ago on August 19th 2014 had a brain bleed related to a drug called Plavix that I took for 2 months I had a bad head pain in the low back part of my skull. They did a craniotomy to remove a build up of blood. then they did some surgical repair to stop the bleeding. They also put me on Keppra 1,000 Mgs. a day then reduced the dose to 750 mgs. at night & 500 during the morning. It makes me feel tired I also had a small stroke but I have recovered from that stroke I believe . Can you tell me how long I may need to take Keppra? I am also a Heart transplant patient for the last 18 months doing well with that.WHy do I need to keep taking Keppra and for how long? Thank you Edward | Hi there Edward, the recommended length of time to take Kendra after a craniectomy for intracranial bleed varies from patient to patient. It is common that some patients (though most tolerate it really well) complain of feeling tired, or a bit "foggy" with the medication. The length of time determined usually depends on factors like if you had any seizures due to the bleeding, or any after surgery, and how much residual blood there is still in the brain. I would recommend that you coordinate with either your neurologist or your neurosurgeon (whoever prescribes the Kendra for you) to determine whether this is a medication you can safely taper down, but as it is an anti-seizure medication I would not decrease the dose without a physician to supervise. Hope my answer is helpful to you. |

ηζθΏ°εηι«εΈει‘γ | I m very terrified. I just noticed a very dark purple almost black lump in the back of my mouth about half an inch or so after my moler. Causes no pain unless messed with. WHAT IS IT?! Is it deadly?! Can I cure it at home?! Please say yes! WHY IS IT THERE PLEASE HELP!!! | Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor . I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns. As per your complaint a dark purple lump next to molar tooth can be due to a dilated vein also known as Varicose vein or a Varix. The lump might be due to formation of a small blood clot that got lodged in that area forming a Thrombus. It is not AA serious condition and will not cause any serious problem. It can gradually reduce in size on its own. If it is not ruled out as the cause other causes can be like mucous cyst or Muscle, Hematoma or a Hematoma. Confirmation can be done by getting a clinical evaluation done by an Oral Physician or an Oral Surgeon. Hope this information helps. Thanks and regards. Chat Doctor. |

ηζθΏ°εηι«εΈει‘γ | My 16 day old baby boy has been in and out of the doctor since he was born. He has been vomiting since born. Recently it is projectile. He was born at 9lbs 4oz and left the hospital at 8lbs 9oz. He has not gained any of his weight back but has not lost either. After eating he gags, vomits, hiccups, or a combo of all three. So far they have changed his formula and put him on Zantac and no change. They did an ultrasound for Pyloric Stenosis and it came out elevated but still with in normal limits. I feel so helpless and just want my baby to start eating and gaining his weight back, Any other suggestions for what it could possibly be that I can bring to our doctors attention? | Hello Welcome to Chat Doctor. As a Breastfeeding Specialist I would advise you to feed your baby small amount and very frequently. If the baby shows the symptoms that you have describes above this is because the baby is overfeeding, or he has reflux. In both situations you have feed him frequently small amounts of formula or breast milk. With his tiny stomach he only need 50-80 ml formula 8-12 times per day. So be careful and do not overfeed him. You should also burp your baby for at least 20 minutes in an up-right position and don't put him to lay down to early. |

I has light cramps in my lower abdomen after 9 days of ovulation. Pls suggest. My weight is 53.7 and my height is 5.3. Thanks in advance. | Hi, You stand a good chance of conception as you have successfully ovulated. If the male factor and the tubal patency have been pronounced normal earlier, the chances are very good. Cramps indicate passage of the ovum along the tube and can sometimes happen with a fertilized ovum. Your BMI is normal. Please wait for your next cycle and if you miss it, go for a urine pregnancy test 3-7 days later with a fresh early morning sample. If you wish for an earlier and better confirmation, you can get your serum beta-ChatDoctor levels monitored. Hope this helps. |

You will need to search on another platform for prescriptions. Your other option is to have your surgeon review what's going on since muscle spasms are not typically part of the common sequela to this type of procedure unless there is a problem arising as a complication from surgery or the diagnosis is something different.

By your history and description, possibility of lung infection (pneumonia) and bronchitis is more. Your symptoms like cough, expectoration, wheezing, chest tightness etc. are commonly seen with lung infection and bronchitis. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done 1. Clinical examination of respiratory system 2. Chest x-ray 3. PUT (pulmonary function test). Chest x-ray is needed to rule out lung infection. PFT is must for the diagnosis of bronchitis. You will need higher antibiotic, inhaled bronchodilator and inhaled corticosteroids on the basis of these reports.

ηζθΏ°εηι«εΈει‘γ | I had a fall about 6 months ago down some stairs and hit the front of my leg just above the ankle joint. The original lump from the fall is still there. It is solid and not filled with any liquid. Never had any pain apart from just after the fall until today where I could barely stand on the leg sporadically. Any ideas? | Hi, thank-you for providing the brief history of you. A thorough clinical examination is advised. As you have pain in the ankle and a lump as well I will advise you to undergo an x-ray or MRI of ankle to see possible soft tissue and bony injuries. Also, undergoing physical therapy like therapeutic ultrasound therapy should help reduce the lump as it is more looking like a muscular and skin tissue non flexibility. By ultrasound this should get mobilize and vanish. Also exercises for ankle is important to regain the stability and the mobility of the ankle joint. In my clinical practice such cases are referred to physical therapy and responds well. Regards Jay In Chat Doctor. |

There is also a possibility that there can be sores inside mouth leading to pain. Consult a Pediatrician and get him evaluated. As of now give him Tylenol to relieve pain as well as fever.

In other words, it has to be seen what kind of lesions one is having predominantly that is whether you are having more of comedones or pa pules or pustules or severe nodules cysts and abscesses. The treatment plan changes accordingly. The chances of scarring and pigmentation are more with pustular nodular acne or with cysts and abscesses. In your case, you can continue with tab azithromycin as prescribed, along with topical application of benzoyl peroxide 2.5% in morning and Darlene gel in night. Use a salicylic acid based face cleanser. Follow this schedule for 3 weeks, if you don't have much of response, then one can think of adding isotretinoin or doing chemical peels(glycolic acid or salicylic peels). For the same, you need to consult a dermatologist. Take care. |

I went through your history and would like to make suggestions for you as follows:1. I usually suggest my such patients intranasal corticosteroids (such as foretaste furnace or fluticasone propionate) for 2-4 weeks depending upon response. As it is a prescription Chat Doctor. 2. Regular steam inhalation twice a day helps in sinus problems.3. For your chest discomfort, I would think of two possibilities: it could be either wheezing/asthma related or due to gastroesophageal reflux-related. More details of your symptoms would help to choose first possibility of the two, although both of them could also be interrelated.4. In general, please avoid exposure to dusts, smokes, air pollution and cold air as much as possible.5. I would suggest you not to use over-the-counter nose decongestant sprays too frequently, as they have their own side effects. Hope above suggestions will be helpful to you.

I am nervous about it...we have had it checked out and came out neg. Switch formula, give him whole milk?? | Hello, I can understand your concern. The most common cause of green tongue in babies is presence of fungal/yeast infection on the tongue. It would have been helpful if you had mentioned what medicines are being given to him and if it includes antifungal medications. Sometimes, use of antibiotics can also cause development of fungal growth on tongue. Other causes may include presence of bacterial infection causing hairy tongue and possible upper respiratory tract infection. I would advise you to go for analysis of tongue swab in the laboratory. It can be done with the help of a dentist. Based on the analysis result, confirmed diagnosis can be reached and treatment can be started. I hope this information helps you.

ηζθΏ°εηι«εΈει‘γ | My brother had esophageal cancer . Most of his esophagus was removed and stomach stretched up. Now he is having problems with a blockage or twist in the tube from his stomach to his intestine and is throwing up everything he eats. What can be done? The doctors are telling him that the area is being pinched from scar tissue from a hernia operation after his cancer. This hernia operation was kind of a botched operation and ended up very ill and needed a repair done after the inital hernia operation. They spoke of perhaps putting a tube from his stomach to intestine but are rethinking this as they say it will bend or break(?). Their latest solution was maybe a feeding tube and he does not want to have to resort to that. Any solutions? Thank you. | Hi, management of esophageal cancer depends on location of the tumor. Generally upper third of esophagus cancer mainly managed by chemo radiotherapy whereas lower and middle third of esophagus cancer managed by surgery followed by chemoradiation if on biopsy report surgical margin are found to be involved. From your question it is unclear whether your brother was offered post-op chemoradiation or not. If post op chemoradiation was given then chance of anastomotic dehiscence is increased. Now in case of your brother as blockage or twist in the tube from his stomach to intestine has occurred it is better to think of putting a feeding tube directly to intestine (jejunum) by operative intervention and to put the patient in close follow up. You have to consult your surgical oncologist. Take care of your brother. |

I had an appointment with my primary care physician Thursday September 30, 2010 and I had a fever of 100.7 and my liver enzymes were elevated not to mention my usual extreme nausea, spasms, and constipation. She was extremely concerned and sent me directly to the emergency room because she thouht it might have been an abscess from my gallbladder surgery. Luckily it was not an abscess. The ER doctor did notice some inflammation in the intestines but did not seem too concerned. I had a bunch of blood work done again. My primary care physician is testing me for a variety of different viruses and my blood will be sent to the Mayo Clinic. She also wants to do an Upper GI series test. So I guess my question is basically what is this? Or if you have any suggestions or thoughts about my current condition, that would be great.

Celiac disease is a gluten sensitive osteopathy in which there is permanent intestinal intolerance to dietary wheat gliding. It can present as chronic diarrhea, abdominal distention whenever the child is given wheat into diet. The problem usually starts after 6 months of age when food items are introduced to child. You should do blood test like complete blood count fecal fat excretion. Anti endomysial antibodies should also be tested. If the result is positive, then strict gluten-free diet should be given to child. Rice and maize are non-toxic and act as sweet substitute. I hope this will help you. Take care. |

ηζθΏ°εηι«εΈει‘γ | doc if the baby had a blood enfection after he admit in 1 week in the hospital then now the blood infection is clear but now the doctor said the baby nid to put in incubator because of the yellow color of the skin i dont know if its true i nid a second opinion. its that posible? | Hi thanks for the question. I assume that your baby is more than a week old. Most of the babies have yellow discoloration of skin and sclera during the first few days of life. This is called physiological jaundice, and it subsides on its own without any intervention. This is a normal phenomenon as a result of transition from fetal to extrauterine life. You should be aware when jaundice is a cause of concern: 1. If jaundice appears on first day of life2. If the level of bilirubin is more than 12Β mg/DL. Bilirubin is the substance that causes the yellow coloration of skin. Its level can be checked with a blood test .3. If the rise in bilirubin level is more than 5Β mg/DL/hr. For this your doctor my prescribe repeated test and then plot the levels on a graph to predict the expected rise in bilirubin.4. If direct bilirubin is more the 2Β mg/DL or 20% of the total. Bilirubin is of two types physiological jaundice is due to the water insoluble indirect bilirubin so if direct component is high it means it's not physiological and should be a cause for concern. The direct and indirect breakage is given in the blood test. 5. If your baby is otherwise unwell e.g. is lethargic, is not feeding well, has fever or difficulty breathing then its not physiological jaundice because in that case your baby will be otherwise totally ok. You have asked if your baby needs incubator care. Incubators are for premature babies who can not maintain their body temperatures as they have arrived earlier, and temperature control mechanisms have not yet been established. The incubator provides specific temperature. Incubators are not used for the treatment of any type of jaundice. Phototherapy is used for that. These are specially lights that convert the indirect water insoluble bilirubin into water soluble forms that can then be excreted out through urine. As I have told high levels of direct bilirubin are a cause of concern and these need treatment with a phototherapy unit. Your doctor may prescribe phototherapy if your child has any of the criteria I have mentioned earlier, but incubator care is not needed as your baby is not premature and is at least older than a week. If you have any other questions I will be happy to answer. |

ηζθΏ°εηι«εΈει‘γ | I was prescribed TERAZOSIN due to an enlarged prostate. I have taken TERAZOSIN for several years now and, I suppose it does help making it easier to urinate. Listed as a side effect is dizziness and light-headedness, especially when standing too long or overheated or during hot weather. I have had several episodes of lightheadedness and feeling faint. While playing golf during the summer and at the end of walking 18 holes I stopped to rest in the shade. As soon as I sat down, I fainted and fell hitting my head on a concrete slab. I got a light concussion. Since then my doctors have decided my heart beats too slow and are debating whether I should have a pacemaker to regulate my heart. I wear a wrist and chest strap heart monitor and noticed that my heart can beat anywhere from 45 BPM while at rest to 160 BPM while exercising. I can sense when my heart is beating too slow because I do feel lightheaded. Can you give me an opinion? Thank you. Luis | Hello, Norma heartbeat ranges from 60-100 bpm. Your heartbeat is low because of side effect of medication (Terazosin-it is an alpha-blocker, which lowers BP & may cause slow heartbeat), poor electrolyte balance(take ORS, soups & juice), obstructive sleep apnea, poor general health, thyroid issues(hypothyroidism). You are suggested to get physically examined, get your general health condition better. Get treated if you are diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea or thyroid issues. Get treated at the earliest. Quit smoking & Chat Doctor. You can talk to your treating doctor & get Teratogen replaced by other medicines that will suit you better.

I have been diagnosed with WPW accidentally, and I am waiting for an ablation in 17 days. I am mostly asymptomatic, and I never had any extremely rapid heart rates. My resting heart rate is actually in the 40\s. However, I do sometimes get palpitations and every once in awhile get a run of 5 to 7 in a row. The EP I saw in the hospital prescribed me Flecainide 50 mg, twice daily. I saw another EP, who was a much older guy, as a second opinion. He seems to think I do not need the Flecainide, and maybe not even the ablation. I do not agree with him on the ablation due to recent medical studies on WPW and how ablation is recommended even for asymptomatic patients, especially athletes.My question is regarding Flecainide. I have not had any palpitations since I began taking it a few days ago, but I want to make sure this drug is not putting me at risk for creating a dangerous rhythm. Reading case studies and medical journals, it seems there is some risk. I have not been known to go into AF, and besides palpitations, I am asymptomatic with WPW.

But just last night I noticed that my gum on my upper left tooth un attached itself from right to left in the middle. Will my gum reattach itself and heal buy itself? Or should I go see a dentist right away? | Hello, You must visit the dentist if the gum has detached itself and is attached at some point above the teeth as the dentist can excise that part of the loose tissue. But if a considerable part of the gum tissue is still attached and not hanging loose, then there is a possibility that it will heal. Because excising a part of gingival can sometimes cause contraction the healing tissue and result in shortening of the gums and since it is the front teeth it doesn't look aesthetic. I suppose that's the reason the doctor must have waited to heal on its own. I would also like you to take soft food and not to traumatize the area while brushing.

ηζθΏ°εηι«εΈει‘γ | Hi, What is the risk of getting infected from a blood draw done using a syringe contaminated with HIV blood ? The reason I am asking this is because recently I had my blood test (non HIV) done in one of government hospitals in Mumbai and I didn t see the phlebotomist using a new syringe for the test. Thanks | Hi and thank you so much for this query. I am so sorry to hear about this scare that you had. Please, if you are not sure of the quality of the syringe to be used, decline the test. If for real a contaminated syringe was used, the chances of having HIV are not zero but would really depend on a multitude of other factors. I will suggest that you follow up with a doctor and be managed as a case of accidental exposure to blood products as it goes beyond just HIV. I hope this helps. Furthermore, I wish you well and thank you so much for using our services. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. |

I just read through your question. I understand your frustration with the feeding of your baby. Furthermore, I want to reassure you, however, that the weight that you report is not abnormal.

When administering an allergy medicine to him, it will usually go away by the late afternoon or the next day and he always wakes up with it.

She was diagnosed with cirrhosis 15 yrs. ago at the age of 60, even though she didn t touch any alcolol until the age of 45, when my father died. She was never a heavy drinker, but was extremely obese and ate tons of white sugar right out of the bowl. She had a gastric bypass in 1986, and now weighs a svelt 225 lbs., down from 325.

According to the clinical history provided the back pain could be part of a mechanical back pain complex of symptoms. This mechanical back pain is caused due to bad posture at work, long work-hours in particular position, lack of proper sleep or healthy diet as well. One must also rule out inflammatory disorders, for which I recommend you to get an X-ray of your spine after consulting with an Orthopedic. MRI can be taken in case you have any nerve compression symptoms or as deemed necessary by your Orthopedic. After a thorough physical examination by your Orthopedic, you may be prescribed painkillers and/or muscle relaxants which should give you reliefAvoid weight-bearing exercises. Do only mild aerobics which does not put your back to strain. You can discuss this with your Gym instructor. Hope this helps you. Wishing you good health... Regards. Chat Doctor. |

If you continue to have symptoms suggestive of a recurrent CSF leak, then it needs to be evaluated by a health professional. While neck pain may have a number of causes ranging from musculoskeletal pain to arthritis, your history of prior brain surgery and recent leak with repair significantly raises suspicion that this could be another leak. I'm not entirely convinced that you need to rush off to the ER, but it would make sense to call/page your neurosurgeon and ask to see him/her as soon as possible. Of course, if you are having nausea/vomiting or fevers, I would get to the ER to rule out meningitis. I hope this helps. |

It seems you have got local irritation to the wax cream you have used. It called Contact irritant dermatitis. Nothing to worry as your skin will be fine soon. I would advise you a week course of oral prednisolone in low dose (5-10Β mg). You can use Elton ointment which contains mometasone but supplement it with application of antibiotic like juridic acid cream to prevent any secondary bacterial infection. After good quality moisturizer like detail DAM twice a day over full face. Avoid use of any cosmetics/face wash for few days. Avoid direct sun exposure and use water-based sunscreen before stepping out in sun. Hope this was useful. Take care Chat Doctor. |

ηζθΏ°εηι«εΈει‘γ | Hi, My husband has asthma, and COPD he takes symbicort and Spiriva. Hes 55, lately hes really tired, some muscle tightness in his hamstrings, some back pain. Im learning about his medical history and what to do. I have a general understanding and Im trying to learn more. I have noticed that hes goes for a week or so before he refills his meds and we are addressing these habits. Do you have any advise? | Hello dear, Asthma is caused due to bronchoconstriction (obstruction of smaller airway passages) which is indicative of Hyper-responsiveness of air passages. Management consists of:1. Stalin or Corticosteroid Inhalers-provide symptomatic relief by causing bronchodilator (dilating the smaller airway passages, relieving the obstruction & increasing airflow to lungs)So, can be used it whenever having an acute attack.2. Montelukast preparations- used as a maintenance therapy to relieve symptoms of seasonal allergies & asthma.3. Antihistamines can also be used to provide symptomatic relief.4. Protection from exposure to cold, dust or other allergens. Presence of pain can be attributed to either fatigue of respiratory muscles due to labored breathing or due to infection. If symptoms still persist, it will be better to consult a Pulmonologist & get a proper physical examination done. So that appropriate management steps could be taken. Wishing a good health. Take care. |

ηζθΏ°εηι«εΈει‘γ | Hi, I have been feeling intense burning sensations (like rubbing of jalepenos) on my face while sleeping at nighttime. It usually begins with cheeks then face, ears, neck and (at times) spreads to arms and feet. Also, arms and feet feel itchy and once you start itching it just doesn t go away. It is more frequently nowadays. Last night, I felt the same burning sensation on face/ears but (not as usual - for the first time) it followed by me feeling nauseated, extremely dizzy and sweating profusely. I am borderline diabetic with Hypertension - taking pills and both are well managed. Your opinion is greatly appreciated! | Degree understand your concerns went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. From the given symptoms, paranoia can be diagnosed. But that is not all. These symptoms also could manifest if you are stressed, hugely disappointed or obsessing these thoughts. Therefore, differential diagnosis is required which can only be provided by a trained psychologist / psychiatrist. Researches prove that medicines alone cannot cure anxiety disorder. Along with medicine you should practice psychotherapy techniques to streamline your lifestyle and meditation and yoga techniques to calm your mind, body, streamline your metabolism and thinking style. Please consult a psychologist. Please consult your current physician for further advise on your problems other than psychological. If you still need my help, please describe the whole problem in detail and post a direct question to me. I shall definitely help you with psychotherapy techniques to overcome your problems. Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications. Good luck. |

He has also been getting severe headaches the last few days, On Thurs., his bp was 155/99. At what point do I consider it an emergency? | Hi, Thanks for asking. Based on your clinical history and query, my opinion is as follows:1. Yes, stress increases load on heart and leads to high blood pressure.2. High blood pressure with headaches is a warning sign. At this age the blood pressure should be around 120/80 mm of Hg.3. Emergency is when it crosses systolic above 180 and diastolic above 110. However, do not wait for emergency, start exercises, weight reduction, diet control and medication. Hope it helps. Any further queries, happy to help again. |
