About 3 weeks ago i found out i was pregnant, the day after i had very severe cramping and heavy bleeding with clotting, since then ive experienced brown discharge which hasnt stopped, i took a test today and it still says im pregnant. Could i have miscarriaged?
|
I have read and understood your query hope this will be helpful amount of blood and clots you have mentioned is pointing towards the miscarriage. The pregnancy test come positive because the substance B Chat Doctor which is detected in urine for pregnancy test keep on secreting in urine for weeks even after miscarriage. I Would highly recommend you to get yourself checked by ob/gone doctor for an abdominal scan and management accordingly. The brown discharge can be due to infection or remnants of fetus in uterus will be very glad to know if you find it usefulThankyouRegards Chat Doctor.

HelloWelcome to Chat Doctor. I can understand your concerns. I would advise your husband to take tablet paternal twice a day for 3-6 months. The active ingredients in this are lycopene, CO-Q10, zinc and carnitine. These compounds are known to improve sperm count and morphology. You can also GUI. The success rate for GUI is 5-20 percent. He should keep taking paternal tablets even if you go for GUI. Consult an infertility specialist. Hope this helps. Thanks

Hey Just wondering. I am a 39 year old female, pretty smallMy heart rate is around 97 to 106 at rest, and my BP is 140/90 and twice I get 175/118I did visit a doctor because I didnt feel well past month or twoThen the doctor gave me a heart medicine to take the pulse down and BP (its still in further examination.)But I wondering what it can be? Do I need the medicine really? Is that bad ?

Hello and thank you for using Chat Doctor. I carefully read your question and I understand your concern. I will try to explain you something and give you my opinion. We talk about hypertension if we have mean value that exceeds 140 / 90 mmHg. A person might have high value during emotional and physicals trees so It's mandatory to judge on mean values. Usaly hypertension does not give any symptoms but left untreated he slowly modifies the heart. According to heart rhythm, the normal rate is between 50-100 beat for minute. When it exceeds 100 we talk about sinus tachycardia. This might have different causes to simple emotional stress, physical activity, coffee consumption or pathologies like anemia, hyperthyroidism. So if we diagnose hypertension and rhythm issue we have to find they cause and of course treat them. If you treat the hypertension than you have nothing to worry. If I was your treating doctor I will recommend some examination like an electrocardiogram, a cardiac echo, a full blood analyze, a holder rhythm and pressure monitoring. This gives a better view how to treat the problem, medical or not. But as you catch values up to 170 I think medical treatment is necessary. Hope I was helpful. Wish you good health. Best regards.

hello, my 11 year old daughter has had symptoms like burning and stabbing pain in her bladder. i have taken her to the dr and to a urologist even to the ER several times, but no one seems to know what she has. her symptoms started over 4 months ago, went away but now they are back. She is now complaining of feeling hot on abdomen where the bladder is. Please help!
|
Thank you for posting your query on Chat Doctor, The first thing to rule out in your daughters' case is a Urinary Tract Infection. A urinalysis and a urine culture will tell you whether she is suffering from any infection. If infection is ruled then we need to get an ultrasound pelvis to rule out any structural abnormalities which may cause such kind of pain e.g. an ovarian cyst can cause such pain. Has your daughter started menstruation. Sometimes the initial few cycles in females can lead to such symptoms, and she just needs to be counselled. If she has UTI then she needs to be treated with antibiotics. She may need some SOS analgesics if it is associated with menstruation. Hope that helps God Bless you Chat Doctor.

Iam 30 years old man,I have lost my hair about 50% from front to back,I Would like to know that is there any medicine will help me to restore my hair again if not please like to know how much cost for hair transplantation and how long need the treat ment.(Iam working in Saudi Arabia and more than 2 months vacation is difficulty)
|
Hi, You seem to have an Chat Doctor. It is a hereditary condition influenced by hormone.testosterone. Initially, there is recession on the forehead. Then, the hair fall continue to bald the occipital area. I think you have baldness on frontal area extending to backward. If you have sparse hairs on the bald area, then medical treatment might give good result. You may take finasteride 1 mg daily till good result. And biotin 10 mg twice a day along with vitamin E 400 mg once a day may be taken. Minoxidil 10% solution may be applied on the bald area twice a day. Ketoconazole containing shampoo may be used to cleanse the scalp. Have patience for the result. You should take treatment under observation of dermatologist. If the affected area is complete bald, then hair transplantation may be considered. Cost varies from doctor to doctor and according to the affected area. I hope you got my answer. Thanks.

I fell from a car when I was exiting and landed on my hip. It is quite painful/ Xray show no breaks. I had physical therapy 4 times but there does not seem to be any change in pain. I need a walker to get around otherwise I cannot put almost no weight right leg (injured leg) . When sitting down I have no pain whatsoever. I m an 82 year old male . I take Hydriconone for pain but it has n effect on the pain. Could a crack have been missed when reading the Xray ? What do you suggest I do?
|
Hi. A crack can be missed sometimes, especially if the X-ray is not taken in the right angle, and you can go ahead with a repeat X-ray from different angles just to make sure we rule that out. But we also need to take into consideration the fact that your age cannot tolerate mild injuries as well as you could a few years prior to this. So lets also allow your hip to rest and heal well enough without going about too much physical strain. Best wishes.

Hi, I am a 33 year old male. I am 6 feet tall weighing 210lbs. Ive never had any sort of mouth injury and have always been healthy. Last summer, my gums around my front teeth would become sore and throb whenever I would drink a beer. I recently had an oral surgeon cut open my gums, clean the teeth and stitch them back together. Everything went fine and I didnt drink alcohol for 2 months to let my gums heal. I recently had a couple of beers and my gums again got so sore and throbing I couldnt sleep and I felt like I got punched in the mouth. It doesnt seem to happen with other alcoholic beverages, only beer. Does anyone know why this could be?
|
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The soreness in the gums could be because of the gum infection secondary to deposits, or it can an allergic reaction to the beer. Consult an oral physician and get yourself examined to rule out these conditions. If it is gum infection, then you have to take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin 500Β mg and metronidazole 400Β mg TID for 5 days (if you are not allergic and do not consume alcohol during antibiotic course). Do saline gargling. After this you can get your teeth cleaned. If it is because of allergic reaction, you can take an antihistamine like cetirizine and stop consuming beer. I hope my answer will help you, take care.

I woke up this morning with an ache in my lower right side abdomen ,through out the day up to now its come on in waves lastind a couple of seconds then its gone but back again about every 15 mins or so on a scale of 1 to 10 pain is about 3 but it keeps coming . what could it be /im 51 and female
|
Hi. Thanks for your query. Your history of intermittent pain in the right power abdomen lasting for a couple of seconds and on 3/10 on a scale, the possible diagnosis is :Right Ureteric colic due to a stone in the right ureter with or without urinary tract infection. I would advise going to ER for clinical evaluation, ultrasonography and X-ray of the chest. The treatment will depend upon the reports of investigations; if surgery is required go for it.

Hello doctor,I have itchy bumps located on right breast with blisters filled with pus.
|
Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor forum. Could you attach picture of it? Are those painful? Are you sexually active or do have close contacts with other individuals or do you share any clothes? If those are multiple small vesicles aligned or grouped together, with clear fluid inside rather than pus, then those are likely a herpes infection. Then you would antiviral like Acyclovir or Valacyclovir. Now since it is less than 72 hours, it is better to get antiviral prescribed, which gives better result with early treatment. Herpes is usually painful to begin with or may get painful later. If there is single swollen area with clear pus demonstrable or there is ChatDoctor. This would be associated redness or tenderness. So, be it either ways, you will need medications. So get it prescribed after examination.

Hi Thanks for writing to Chat Doctor. From your information provided I understand that you are concerned over frequency of passing urine. You do not always require the child to be empty stomach to do blood test for kids. I would suggest please get a Urine RM test done first. Also keep a watch on water intake of child. Is there fever, difficulty in passing urine, baby crying while passing urine? Hoping to hear from you.

Hello doctor,I am suffering from ED and PE, low libido for the past six years. Most of the medication that helps with erection including UpHold, Caverta, Pengra with and without the combination of depressant like Prodep 10 or 20 mg (without any sign of depression) have not helped me. I have even consulted psychologists and have not received any result. There is no obvious concern found during the physical test of the penis. My current medications are L-arginine, Horny goat weed, L-theanine. My blood report indicates:FSH, LH, Serotonin, and Estradiol below normal.Testosterone and Dopamine within range.Prolactin on the higher side of the range.My pituitary MRI is absolutely normal.FSH 3.03 mIU/ml (Range: 1.5 to 12.4 mIU/ml).LH 2.80 mIU/ml (Range: 1.7 to 8.6 mIU/ml).Testosterone total: 458 ng/dl (Range: 249 to 836 ng/dl).Prolactin: 10.57 mg.ml (Range 2.64 to 13.13 mg.ml).Serotonin: 250 ng/ml (Range: 70 to 270 ng/ml).Dopamine: 29.6 pg/mL (Range: 0 to 30 pg/mL).

Hello. All the tests done seems to be fine except vitamin D deficiency. It seems that you are now diabetic and diabetes is so closely associated with erectile dysfunction. The treatment depends on the cause of erectile dysfunction. Some of the common causes are, In this regard, I would like to advise you to get the following tests done and revert back with reports. Fasting and postprandial blood sugars, HbA1c, fasting thyroid profile, fasting lipid profile, serum vitamin D, and B12 levels. Once the cause is corrected, erectile dysfunction will resolve automatically. Also, it is important that there are no psychological factors affecting your sexual health. Make sure that you and your partner are completely ready for the sexual intercourse. You should also consult a sex therapist in person. For more information consult a diabetologist online

my 8 year old daughter fell off her bed and her shin has a very large bump on it. She has stopped crying but says that is still hurting very much. She wont stand on it. And when i was feeling around her leg she says pressure starts hurting about an inch and a half away from the bump. also the bruise appears to be almost grey... any advice?
|
Welcome to the ChatDoctorI have gone through your question, and it seems that your daughter has suffered a severe musculoskeletal injury most likely a fracture. You should immediately take her to an orthopedic surgeon for proper clinical examination and management accordingly. They may advise you for the X-Ray leg to look for injury or fracture. I would recommend you to splint the part by a board to help in transportation to hospital. You may give her acetaminophen or ibuprofen tablet for pain relief. Hopefully this will help you. I would be happy to help you out in any future health related questions. Take care

Left ankle pain started Saturday & just noticed a large hard lump (at least 1 inch diameter) to left side of left knee. No knee pain. Did a tendon break at the ankle and gather around the knee area? Asking for a friend and will relay information tommorrow.
|
Hello! Thank you for the query. If there was any injury recently, tendon or joint injury are possible. Lump in this area can be also a varicose vein, especially if it gets larger when standing. Painful varicose vein can indicate blood clot inside. The pain can radiate to the calf in such case and the swelling can be present. I suggest you to consult a surgeon with it. In case of doubts, soft tissues' ultrasound should be done. Hope this will help. Regards.

Hi, Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Masturbation has nothing to do with your symptoms. I think you are having mild form of depression or stress. You should rule out physical causes like hypoglycemia, thyroid disturbances or vitamin deficiencies. You may have prescription by your local doctor for the same. If you feel stress or performance anxiety, you should go for stress management and relaxation techniques like yoga or breathing exercise. Do masturbation only when sexually excited and not as a part of habit. Thanks.

hi im 23 i have had bad stomach pains for the past few months with i thought were down to ovarian cysts, but now my bowel movements have changed, the can go from small balls wich are hard to pass or just like jelly, everytime i go i have alot of yellow stringy like mucus in it aswell.....what could it be??
|
Hi. Thanks for your query. The changed bowel movements in your case at the age of 23 are more suggestive of an intestinal infection. I would advise you the following:First get a proper course of an antibiotic and metronidazole for 5 to 7 days with added probiotics, multivitamins. If this gives you complete relief-no need of further treatment except for care to have treated water and fresh home-made food to avoid water-borne infections. If there is no relief you will have to undergo following investigations:Investigations:*Routine blood investigations like Complete blood picture, blood sugar, urea, creatinine, liver function tests, thyroid function tests.*Urine -routine and microscopy*Stool: routine, microscopy, occult blood, culture and sensitivity.*Ultrasonography of abdomen, *Colonoscopy All these investigations should be within normal limits for one to say you have IBS. And get treated accordingly.

Hi My wife had thyroid cancer, she had a goiter,several nodules and Hashimotos, she had the thyroid removed, followed by radiation, she has had total body scans for ten years and now 14 years later she takes Synthroid once a day, should she be considered cancer free? And should she be considered cured? Thanks
|
Hi welcome to ChatDoctorI have gone through your query. It is a matter of pleasure that your wife has survived cancer after removed of cancerous thyroid followed by radiation. Regarding her medication, I want to know Why Synthroid is prescribed, after14 years of recovery ?. Did any problem occurred? I suggest you, pls keep your treating doctor aware of side effects if any. And keep going for regular check-ups. By getting rid of the microbes in the organs, plus doing the normal cancer treatments, the balance (i.e. a strong immune system and a low number of cancer cells) is restored enough to keep the cancer from coming back. The patient is cured because their immune system has been regulated through well planned regimen. Because proper nutrition is an integral part of a healthy immune system, the kitchen is the perfect place to find natural home remedies to bolster your disease-fighting abilities. Regular intake of high fiber diet includinfruit veges, whole grains oats, antioxidants- vitamins, and minerals as ginger, garlic onion, preferable in raw form, nuts - almonds, walnut .flex seed, Avoid fried, fast foods' bakery products, tea coffee, alcohol Lemon juice with water twice before meals, Bitter gourd 25 ml in the morning coconut water a great antioxidant Turmeric powder 1/2 spoon in a cup of hot milk. Kills all types of bacteria on mass level. Do regular exercise, Walk, Yoga PANAMA -Deep Breathing for strengthening and detoxifying your systemProper rest and sound sleep helps rejuvenation. Mental mention, worry, anger harms and encourages toxins in our body and damages our immune system. Constipation should not be encouraged Following above regimen will strengthen the vital force to help stay your metabolism balanced, thus giving strength to immune system which assures happy healthy and disease free life ahead Hope this helps to solve your query Take care. All the best if any doubt Mail at Don't hesitate to get back for further query if any ?

Hi Mr Suresh, From your notes I understand that you have been married for 3Β years and do not have a baby yet. What is the age of your wife? What is her weight and height? Are her periods regular? First register with infertility specialist and do basic infertility investigations. Hormone tests and Fallopian tube patency tests for your wife and semen analysis for you. You can be treated based on the results. Ask your wife to take folic acid once daily. To improve your chances of pregnancy your wife should maintain normal BMI. Both should quit smoking (if smoking) and have intercourse at least three times in a week. I hope I have answered to your satisfaction.

Please let me know if I should be concerned about my liver mainly, and anything else : ) Thanks, Prashanth
|
Hi Prashanth, Thanks for the detailed description of your query. Your Liver Function Test (LFT) is slightly deranged from the normal. There is nothing to panic about it and as such no immediate management of it is required. Repeat the LFT after 3 months and check for the results. Your Lipid profile seems to be deranged and is concerning. You must start right away with dietary change and lifestyle modifications including exercises. Get an ECG done too. It seems like you may require lipid lowering agents (Medications) too for this. The cervical spine x-ray shows changes as you mentioned. But nothing needs to be done surgically for this as of now. You will benefit by physiotherapy and neck exercises. My suggestion to you is to get back to your primary care physician and seek his guidance about the management plan. Hope you are in fit health at the earliest.

I was diagnosed with Hypoglycemia last year, which explained my blurred/tunnel vision when I stand or sit up, but I still have muscle twitches, weird tastes and smells is my mouth and nose, and I often feel detached or out of my body, I also have crazy thoughts.
|
My advice is to also get the following tests done if they have not been done before. The tests are serum C- peptide, Serum insulin, Insulin/ C peptide ratio and an abdominal CT scan. It is important to rule out the possibility of an insulin which is an insulin secreting tumor which causes hypoglycemia. Please note that insulin is a rare tumor. However, it is important to rule out this type of tumor in patients with hypoglycemia. Regarding the fatigued feeling & other symptoms of hypoglycemia you may try to eat frequent small meals witChatDoctorplex carboy Chat Doctor. Best regards

Hi Dr, I am currently experiencing flulike symptoms and have aching bones and limbs. I also I m slightly congested and have blood in my stools. I really feel like I have been hit by a bus and have been like this for two days. When I go to the toilet there is blood on the tissue and also clumps of blood in the toilet. Should I be worried?
|
Hi, I have gone through your medical history carefully and understood your concerns. Having body aches and slightly congested are signs of possible flu infection. In regard to blood in stool, I need to know if you have been having constipation problems recently? If not, then, should go immediately to ER for immediate evaluation and treatment. If you have been having constipation problems, then, this might have caused laceration of rectal mucosa due to hard stool and difficulty in passing motion. In such case, the very best thing is to avoid constipation. Hope it was of help! Chat Doctor.

Hi welcome to Chat Doctor forum. Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor. Forum. You had slight discomfort in lower abdomen, and increased urination, nausea, upset stomach, You have stopped the pills 8 weeks ago. And you had period 10 days back.

Hello, My wife has a painful Bakers cyst behind here right knee. she has a history of osteoarthritist in both knees and fingers. She has responded quite well to bee venom therapy for the osteoarthritist when she would target the stings according to accupuncture tables or charts. She insist she does it where it hurts. Bee venom therapy has been very effective at releeving the pain and gaining back almost complete full motion after a couple treatments. The bakers cyst has only recently become painful over the course of less than a week. Last week the doctor told her it was a Bakers cyst and at the time it was not painful so nothing was done. The pain has now become unbearable and alieve does not seem to be providing any relief. She wants to try the bee venom therapy and wants to know the administration site that would correspond to accupuncture therapy. Is the administration site different for the Bursa? or is it recommended to correspond with the osteoarthritis site which is just below the inside of the knee but about two inches below the patella? any suggestion would be appreciated. As a side note I can not get her to rest the knee. she is just too active and will out work ten other normal people even thouh she is a very spry 68 years young. Where should she sting herself?
|
**1. Bee Venom Acupuncture [BVA] is a kind of herbal acupuncture, but most claims have not been proved to the scientific standards of evidence-based medicine and are anecdotal in nature, thus prior to opting for this therapy you must seek opinion of Orthopedic Surgeon.PS. Due to paucity and methodological flaws in the existing clinical studies, it is premature to Chat Doctor.

A few days ago I noticed my 5 1/2 year old s skin was covered with red blotches in kind of a mottled red and white pattern that looks a bit like a two toned ariel map. It appears raised to the eye but I can t feel anything out of the ordinary when I touch her skin. The blotchyness is not unique to either a sun exposed area or an area that would be impact by a detergents, etc. It is on her arms, tummy, rear, and legs. Her face, back, and feet don t seem to be blotchy at all. No itching, pain, exposure to new foods, or environments either... no notable health history to report. I assumed it would pass when I first noticed it but we re going on five days now...

Hi... Thank you for consulting in Chat Doctor. By what you quote it should be an urticaria or a simple skin allergy. You can use HY Chat Doctor. Most important thing to be remembered is that it has a propensity to recur (called as second crop) within 10-14 days. If this happens, you can start using the same medicine, but I suggest you get the kid evaluated with your pediatrician. Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Chat Doctor are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.

Hi,my 85 year old dad has been suffering with very sharp abdominal pain,constipation and loss of appetite for a few days,doctor gave him painkillers and laxative but he seems to be getting worse,he is on warfarin and nurse rang to say his blood was 9.5 and not let him take any warfarin tablets he seems to be getting worse.he never complains so i know he is in pain what can i do.hope you can help
|
Hello! Thank you for the query. Your dads' hemoglobin 9,5 does not have to be caused by War fin. This medicine makes him more prone to bleeding, but every bleeding has its source. Abdominal pain, constipation, loss of appetite and low hemoglobin level sounds really like a colon cancer. Especially at the age of 85. Hemoglobin level is low because he is probably bleeding from gastrointestinal tract. That is why I suggest your dad to do not wait anymore and have some tests done. Abdominal ultrasound and colonoscopy are strongly advisable. Hope this will help. Regards.

I m 19 years old. I have been masturbating since like 4 years, it started slow, but over time i started to masturbate way more often and i get to the point where i was masturbating like everyday, also i started to do this pretty rough, hard grip, without any moist. And i found out that masturbating this way and so often may be bad for my health, it seems like my penis isn t so sensitive as before, and i erect pretty fast. If i will stop, for long period of time, let s say month or two, will it back to normal, to old good shape? I m just scared that if i will meet the right woman, i won t feel sensation when i get inside her soft vagina, or i will climax, way too fast. What should i do? I already stopped masturbating.
|
Degree understand your concerns went through your details. Please understand, masturbation is not at all unhealthy. At your age, it is OK for you to masturbate once in a day. Masturbation is healthy, natural and stress buster. It is a natural way to throw out the waste product called semen. don't worry in that aspect. You should not hurt your penis by being so harsh on it. Reduce the pressure you exert and use some lubricants or pillows etc. while you masturbate. You can continue masturbation around three or four times a week without putting extra pressure or effort. You will be alright. If you require more of my help in this aspect, please use this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. Hope this answers your query.

Hi, my blood pressure was taken yesterday and it was 103 over 78 I got told at the time that it was low but nothing needed to be done, is this correct? I also feel tired quite a bit and feel quite sick! Hope you can help (I have just been diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis, im 28 year old female 5ft5 weighing 61.2kg.)
|
Hello, Yes they are right, the blood pressure is normal for you. Normal BP levels also depends on ones age, height, weight and genetic makeup. Some individuals have BP on lower side but its normal for them. Your tiredness is not because of low BP but probably due to and spend or psychological. Get one thyroid test done, and very important for you is regular exercises. You can try SYR Zirconia 2 teaspoon once a day, which is a vitamin supplement. Hope I have answered your query.

Im a 37 year old male that has always been relatively healthy and active. in 2011, my liver enzymes (ALT/AST) were higher than normal and i went on a rigorous plan to change some of my recent habits. Although not a big drinker, i cut alcohol out completely. I began eating better and getting back to being active and i lost 25 pounds and my ALT/AST numbers went back to normal - after about 6 months. Yet, my 2012 lab work, my GGTs were elevated. And, as a result of a recent lab test, my GGTs have increased even more. What causes that and how can i centrally focus on getting back to normal?
|
Hello! Thank you for the query. Liver enzymes can get elevated due to bad diet (fatty foods, spicy foods), alcohol intake, some medicine use (most of the painkillers), gallbladder diseases (like gallstones), liver viral infection (HBV, HCV infection). As your GGT level has rose again, you should rule out other than diet possible reasons of its elevation. GTP, AP, amylase, lipase, urine amylase, Bag, Antioch levels should be checked. Abdominal ultrasound should be also done. You should avoid fatty foods, fried foods, spicy foods, alcohol, medicines. Liver improving supplements available without prescription can be also helpful in its regeneration. Hope this will help. Regards.

I got kicked by a horse on Sunday. I have a huge long bruise taking up the majority of the outside of my femur and on the side of my knee. On my knee I have a large lump and very dark colored bruise except in the middle is white. And it s super tender. What is this?
|
Hello, As I can understand from the history, I feel this is a blood clot happened due to muscle injury over the thigh. Since you mention the knee I will recommend you to get it examined and also an MRI on a safety basis as sometimes the inflammation in the tissues get septic and needs proper medical attention. For now, you can do quick icing to reduce pain and inflammation. Any ignored injury leads to problems in the latter stages of life. Hope I have answered your query.

Hello, Irritation can resemble a cut. And if you scratch itchy spots on your penis too often or too hard, you can tear open the skin. Untreated Atlantis can also cause your foreskin to become impossible to pull back, which is known as fibrosis. Please consult a doctor for physical inspection. Hope I have answered your query.

Today, I woke up being extremely conjested. The night before I could tell I was getting sick with either a cold or allergies. I tend to get Seasonal Allergies. This time, it feels more severe. When I bend my head over, sneeze, or cough, I have this excruciating pain in my left temple, and left eye. Just the left side of my face in general. I sneezed for the first time today and I couldnt believe the pain I felt in my head. Such as my brain expanding and then deflating. (like an explosion.) I also have symptoms such as a runny nose and sore throat. Do you have any idea what could be wrong?

Hello, Thank you for asking at Chat Doctor. I went through your history and would like to make suggestions for you as follows:1. From your history, if you could be both infection or allergy, possibly with involvement of sinus.2. I usually treat my such patients with an antihistamine (like cetirizine or levocetirizine), montelukast, steam inhalation, warm saline gargles and a cough syrup.3. Should you have fever, I would also prescribe an antibiotic and paracetamol.4. In addition, I would suggest rest and plenty of warm fluids to maintain HY Chat Doctor.

Hello Doctors My husband was prescribed Nebido injections ones in 3 months due to low testosterone level. Got 1 injection so far. The thing is we are planning to become parents and I found out that these injections can leade to mens infertility, to a low sperm count. is this true? Thanks alot
|
Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Low testosterone itself causes reduction in sperm count. So testosterone supplement is needed. Chronic use of testosterone may lead to decreased sperm count. But usually when supplement is started it is monitored regularly with blood testosterone level and stopped when normal level is reached. So using testosterone injection with adequate monitoring doesn't affect fertility. Hope I have answered your query. Regards Chat Doctor.

|
Hello. Thank you for asking at Chat Doctor. I went through your history and would like to make suggestions as follows:1. Sinusitis can be caused by allergies, infection as well as sometimes structural abnormalities in nose cavity.2. Were I treating you, I would prescribe you intranasal corticosteroids, montelukast and steam inhalation for at least 4 weeks.3. If no improvement, I would suggest you to consult an ENT surgeon who will examine the nose cavity from inside to find out any possible structural defect which may require surgery.4. If improved, I would suggest you to reduce medications with improvement of symptoms and go for allergy testing which will help you to identify the substances to avoid.5. I would also suggest you plenty of warm fluids during day as well as a healthy diet rich in vitamins & minerals (adequate green leafy vegetables, fruits, sprouts, etc.)Hope above suggestions will be helpful to you. Should you have any further query, please feel free to ask at Chat Doctor. Wish you a great recovery and the best of the health ahead. Thank you & Regards.

I was in bed and twisted to turn off my lamp when I had a sudden sharp pain in my mid back area, also have had the constant feeling of having to urinate for the last 4 days. I have never felt pain like this in my life, could barely drag myself to the shower, Hot shower nor ice has helped. I m 35 and have no past problems with any of these symptoms.

Hi Kenny, You seem to have injured your back muscles. A lot of the muscle fibers in each muscle are torn to cause this kind of pain. You should have seen a physician for a X-ray of the back. You need prescription Chat Doctor. Furthermore, you will get better in two days. In addition, a course of antacids are also required. Because of the pain, there is sympathetic activity happening which causes the bladder to contract more than usual.

My foot fell asleep while I was sitting down and when I tried to stand up I could not stand upright and walk, so I ended up falling in an awkward way. Less than 5 minutes a rather large lump had grown on the top right side of my right foot, just below my ankle. How should I treat this throbbing aching pain and reduce the heated swelling?
|
Hi, As per your history it appears that by saying sitting, you mean crossing legs and sitting. It is very common to have this after we age a bit, and the cause for it is stoppage of neoplasm flow in the nerves because of compression. This is not a disease but a common occurrence only that occurs with advancing age and with weight gain. Swelling is caused by stoppage of venous outflow while the arterial flow continues.the only remedy is to stop sitting by crossing your legs. Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Please try to Chat Doctor. Mix roasted cumin seeds powder in it. You may use intermittent yogurt too. In food - rice and lentils or green gram pulse boiled with thin consistency should be taken. In India it's called Chichi. Little butter may be poured over chichi. If problem doesn't reduce in one or two days please take BAEL pulp powder and SY himcoccid for direct control of lose motions and irritation. It's always better that digestion gains strength by itself. For lower back pain Rumply liniment may be rubbed gently over back twice a day. Hope it helps.

Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some soft tissue tumor like lipoma or neurofibroma. Or you may have Desmond cyst. You should go for fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy of that lump. It will give you exact diagnosis. Then you should take treatment accordingly.

I have recently been diagnosed with allergic asthma. Symptoms have been going on for months. Blood pressure has been normal for years but after months of coughing and wheezing my blood pressure is elevated. My family doctor insists the blood pressure problem is NOT related to the asthma but I believe it is. I am afraid to start blood pressure medicine while I am in a high asthma state. Won t it go back down naturally when I get the asthma under control? Should I see a different doctor?
|
Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, Both asthma and hypertension are spastic disorders of smooth muscle, leading to narrowing of the respiratory tract and blood vessels. But as your doctor as examined and informed you that the increased blood pressure is not because of the symptoms. There are many modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors which can play a role in pathogenesis of hypertension. High blood pressure requires both lifestyle modification and medicines. I would suggest you to check BP regularly, if it is high consult a physician and take proper treatment. Thank you.

Hello doctor,I have been having excess phlegm for the last two weeks. It is sometimes green in color or clear color. Phlegm comes sometimes when I am talking. There is also hoarseness of voice. I smoke cigarettes, although trying to quit. Have not smoked for three weeks. Can this be throat cancer? I am worried.
|
Hi. Throat cancer is the last diagnosis to be expected. Firstly, you have a bacterial infection revealed by the green sputum. So you have to take an antibiotic as Targo (Levofloxacin) 750 mg once daily for 10 days plus hot fluids. You must have an endoscopic examination of your larynx to detect the cause of hoarseness. Do not speak loudly and avoid spicy and cold foods. Show me the picture of the laryngoscope when you have it. For more information consult an ENT otolaryngologist online Take care.

HelloYour semen analysis findings may indicate semen infection. There are excess pus cells in semen. It may be due to contamination or infection. You may need investigations like routine hologram, random blood sugar, semen culture and sensitivity, ultrasound of scrotum. You may need to take antibiotics. Motility is normal. Normally it should be at least 55 %. Your findings suggest overall 65 % motility, so it is normal. Sperm count is normal. Normally it should be at least 20 millions/ml. Other factors lie viscosity, pH etc. are also normalFertility is expected to increase with control of infection. You can also take antioxidants. Get well soon. Take Care Chat Doctor.

My question is for a dentist, my daughter is experiencing extreme pain in her mouth. Her gums are sensitive to the touch and it hurts for her to open her mouth. I think this is an abscess, however I can not reach our regular dentist. Should we go to the emergency room, or can I give her ibuprohine until we can get to the dentist?
|
Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query your daughter have symptoms of severe mouth pain and sensitive gums which could be due to abscessed tooth and gingivitis. Infection keeps on accumulating around tooth, bone, gums, and it finds no path to escape due to which it puts pressure and cause pain. Need not worry. I would suggest you to visit your dentist immediately and get IOWA(X-ray) of that tooth done and start root canal treatment of your affected tooth. Go for scaling and cleaning of oral cavity qua Chat Doctor. Take antibiotics course to subside this infection. Maintain basic hygiene of oral cavity by brushing and flossing. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,

Hi i have had what i think is biliary colic since 2am sunday morning, yesterday the pain was so bad i had to go back to bed, taking analgesia regularly but its not helping. Feeling sick as well on and off.I had a scan a few weeks ago which showed that my gallbladder had collapsed and i have multiple gallstones.Today when i got up i thought that i had pulled muscles in my side, back and abdomen due to the pain yesterday. But am wondering if its colic still as the pain is in the same places. Should I see my gp tomorrow?Thank you
|
Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. This sounds like biliary colic, but also there can be associated pancreatitis or hepatic distension pain. I don't consider this is an emergency, but you should consider cholecystectomy as soon as possible. These stones can cause intensive pain, cholecystitis or pancreatitis so be aware of it. If you notice dark urine, jaundice, pain in the back fever and vomiting you should go to ER. Wish you good health.

|
Hi. Thanks for the query. Headache after tooth extraction can be due to radiating pain from extraction site. But if there is no pain at the extraction site then the headache can be unrelated to the dental extraction. You can take painkillers to relieve pain but in case if there is no improvement or recurring episodes of headache then consult an Emergency room and get evaluated. Hope this helps. Regards.

Hello my name is NelsonMy lower back has gotten wise since I had gotten out of the military. Ive been out for three years now an when I bend over it crackles almost like bubble rap. When I cough feel a pop on my lower back as well. I am constantly putting ice on lower back. My question now is what might be happening? The next thing is I black out when I stand from a squatted or bent position. Is this related to my lower back?
|
Hi, Thanks for your query. After going through your query I came to know that you are suffering from chronic backache. It may be due to vitamin and trace element deficiencies specially vitamin D and vitamin B 12. You need to do MRI to rule out other causes. Back exercises, neurotrophic such as mecobalamine and analgesics (DICLOFENAC SLOW RELEASE TABLETS) give relief. If vitamin D is lower than its supplementation will be required. Avoid long continuous standing. Sit in a straight posture. Your black-out when you stand from a squatted or bent position is not related to lower back problem. It is related to postural hypo tension. What is your BP? You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it. I do hope that you have found something helpful, and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care.

I was given methylprednisolone this past February which caused SEVERE anxiety, muscle tension, and depression. I had an anxiety order to begin with, however was more of a worrier than physical symptoms. The doctors decided to try a series of tricyclics, anafranil and then nortriptyline after the steroid, which ultimately made everything worse, as if that was possible. The last med seems to have changed everything, every way my body responds to stress and scary symptoms, and I am scared it wont go away. It caused severe muscle tension and pressure in my chest and neck, (throat area), I stopped at 4 weeks as it was causing severe muscle tension in my head and face also. Since then... 3 months ago, my body has been thru so many changes, severe muscular issues that have just started to go, but now of course they are sore from overuse and strain, mainly when I cry. I have hypersensitivities like itching, pressure in my right temple, and some kind of SCARY, EXTREME, anxiety, tickly kinda, burny feeling that is in my chest and often lasts all day for several days at a time. This feeling started with the nortriptyline and now for 3 months is still around. After having it for so many hours, the tissue in my neck and chest itch like or feel like acid irritation. Is this adrenaline? Will my body ever heal? Does the adrenal and nervous system ever calm down?

Hi, You said you have itching on penis and thighs areas. Most probably you may be having fungal infection. It may be candida intertwine and candida balanoposthitis. It is caused by fungus called Candida albicans. I think, it may be due to perspiration or excessive soap bath. You should consult dermatologist and to have firm diagnosis. Blood tests may be suggested to rule out DM, HIV,anemia and other internal diseases. If you have obesity, please take steps to reduce body weight. Antihistaminics like levocetirizine and antifungal like ketoconazole may be taken. Apply antifungal cream like clotrimazole cream. Have Site bath in water mixed with detail.

I have had an undersized mis-sercumized penis which causes painful erections. plus, my testicles are mostly shrunk up into my body along with penis. this has bother me most of my life and do not know why or how to deal with this mental distress along with pain and inability to have a sex life.
|
Degree understand your concerns went through your details. I think you are young, and you do not have sexual experience. Penis size is not detrimental of your healthy sexual life. Even a two-inch erect penis will be able to satisfy any woman across the world. Testicles will usually be shrunk when it is not active and will be flaccid whenever you are relaxed or stressed. This issue is normal and happens to everyone. These issues cannot hamper your sexual performance of the future. The lack of knowledge about sex and sexual organs could be your problem. The lack of knowledge triggers anxiety whenever you think or obsess about those. Such an obsession could trigger "feeling" of pain, whereas the pain never exists. That is called, in psychology, psycho-somatic disorder. I suggest you to consult a psychiatrist / psychologist for treatment.

From the information you have provided, your friend probably has a bacterial infection of the soft tissues. The exact germ would need that sample be cultured and antibiotics adjusted accordingly. If this infection is extensive, then he for sure requires surgery to get this infection controlled. Without surgery, the infection cannot be well controlled because antibiotics cannot penetrate death tissue. Both antibiotics and surgery need to be used. Can you please, provide me with a picture image of this leg? I hop these helps and ad Chat Doctor. I wish your friend well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.

Hello, Yes, Flute (Fluoxetine) is a very good antidepressant and is frequently used worldwide for treating depression. However, this medicine itself has a side effect of causing lack of appetite, and you can discuss with his doctor about this fact. Most patients start responding to Fluoxetine within 7-14 days of starting the treatment and majority report good improvement within 3-4 weeks. Kind regardsVikas

I just got a cold about two days ago. my throat has been hurting the whole time I been sick. but now instead of my throat being sore, there feels like there s a lump towards the middle of my throat. why is it there and how can I get rid of this lump fast?
|
Hi! Welcome to Chat Doctor! This is a very common clinical presentation in my clinic and people often complain of lump following sore throat or common cold, flu etc. and as per my experience of ultrasound and related needle biopsy reports, I get following possibilities:1. Reactive enlargement of regional lymph nodes2. Reactive hyperplasia of tonsils, tongue lymphoid tissue or adenoids3. Abscess4. Ectopic thyroid tissue5. Cystic lesionsTherefore you have to take warm saline gargle, maintain oral hygiene and see an ENT specialist for a clinical examination and some azithromycin-based antibiotics under medical prescription!regards

Hi Dr. I am 30 years old and my doctor has prescribed me Concor COR 2.5mg for tremors and Paroxat 20 mg for anxiety? I have read the leaflet of both of them and got really worried about the side effects. Concor is for heart disease, why has he prescribed me for tremors? Also are both of these medicines rightly prescribed? Thanks
|
Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor. Thanks for your query. Concord (Bisoprolol) is a beta blocker medication which is used for a variety of conditions. It is used not only for hypertension, heart diseases but also commonly used (in low doses) to treat the physical symptoms of anxiety like tremors, palpitations, etc. Part (Paroxetine) is an SSRI anti-depressant used to treat depressive as well as anxiety disorders. So, yes, both your medication have been rightly prescribed. Wish you all the best. -

I just have a persistent ache along the side of my neck on the left side (along what I think is the eustacian tube) but it hasn t got any worse or better over the last 2 weeks. Just continues to throb off and on. I do not have a cold although I think I broke my nose a few weeks ago with a run in from my dog.
|
Hello, If there is an infection of ear or nose, then from there it spreads to the Eustachian tube, and you will have pain on the left side of the neck. If you have pain anywhere in the body and infection is there, then you can always take any antibiotics like Amoxicillin, Clavulanic Acid, Ofloxacin, Levofloxacin, and etcetera. All this if taken a course for about 5 to 7 days adult dosage or according to body weight, then the infection gets subsided, and the pain will automatically decrease for sure. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

|
HelloThanks for your query. I pill can cause slight alteration of the menstrual pattern, but since you are already having POD, that causes the main effect on periods. You should definitely consult a gynecologist, as POD needs detailed investigation and treatment, even if you do not want a pregnancy. Morevoer, Pill also has a slight failure rate (5 % if taken within 24 hours), so please see a gynecologist for the same too. Take care.

Hi doctor,I am 47 years old female. Before a year, I went to the ER with pain during breathing. My D dimer was elevated at 700 ng/mL. CT scan was negative for a clot. Then I have done two subsequent D dimer tests, and both the ranges were elevated. The values are 521 ng/mL and 707 ng/mL. I am taking tablet Armour for hypothyroidism and a multivitamin tablet.
|
Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor forum. D dimer is a fibrin degraded product, and it is elevated in case of thrombosis usually like pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis. For this, the investigation is done in the form of 2D echocardiography and color doppler of the leg. But you had investigated with CT scan angiography as mentioned in the history (attachment removed to protect patient identity) and it is considered as the preferred test to detect pulmonary embolism. So pulmonary embolism seems less likely. Calf vein color doppler is done to check deep vein thrombosis. Specific false definite causes for D dimer include pregnancy, inflammation, liver disease, any previous surgery. Also, you can check your coagulation profile through PT (prothrombin time), aPTT (activated partial thromboplastin time), BT (bleeding time). For more information consult a hematologist online

Im having abdominal pain that starts on my left side and spreads across my stomach to the right side. I am post menopausal so its not related to that. It started about 2 weeks ago and has increased some. Its not constant but it does hurt daily. What do you think?
|
HI. As per the history you provided this looks to me a case of colitis and /or enteritis. What are your associated symptoms? How is the stool-loose, sticky, bloody ?ant associated nausea, vomiting, fever, weakness or so. I think a course of an antibiotic along with metronidazole and antispasmodic like dicyclomine for a 5-day course should solve the problem.

Hi there, I have extreme pain and pressure feeling in my tailbone area as well as my right lower back. I have had an Xray, MRI and bone scan and nobody can see anything wrong. I have had this pain for about 8 months and it is not getting any better only worse? Please help.
|
It might be coccydynia since pressure is coming on tail bone apply ice pack for 10-15 mins twice dailyApplying heat or a hot pack to the area after the first few days. Avoiding sitting for prolonged periods, or placing any pressure on the area, as much as possible. A custom pillow to help take pressure off the coccyx when sitting. Some find a donut-shaped pillow works well, and for others it is not the right shape and still puts pressure on the coccyx. Many prefer a foam pillow that is more of a U-shape or V-shape (with the back open so nothing touches the coccyx). Any type of pillow or sitting arrangement that keeps pressure off the coccyx is ideal. If the tailbone pain is caused or increased with bowel movements or constipation, then stool softeners and increased fiber and water intake is recommended. Avoid forward bending avoid Chat Doctor. Gently stretching the ligaments attached to the coccyx can be helpful. A physical therapist, chiropractor, physiatrist or other appropriately trained healthcare practitioner can provide instruction on the appropriate stretches. Ultrasound. Physical therapy with ultrasound can also be helpful for pain relief. Mild manipulation will also help stake care hope you get better soon follow this

My baby is 4 months old he is passing loose stool since for more than 15 days. we consulted doctor and stool R/E was done on 23.07.2014 and the following result was found: PUS Cells - numerous, RBCs 4-6, macrophages (+), Parasites : Nil. Doctors prescribed CEFIXIME 100mg/5ml and folic acid 5mg tablet. Medicines are being taken 2 times daily since 23.07.2014 but still loose motion is continuing, what do we do?
|
Thank you for the question. It seems the child is suffering from intestinal infection. Its almost five days since antibiotic was started. Needs to visit the doctor again and get investigated for the causative organism. If he is breastfed add half sachet of Lactobacillus (sporran) in expressed milk and give him. Repeat three times a day. This will help to establish intestinal flora back to normalcy. If top fed then check if cleansing and sterilization of utensils and personal hygiene of the feeding person is up to the mark.

i have hypersensitive glans i m 19 years old ... icant even touch my glans ... so what can i do?
|
Degree understand your concerns went through your details. The problems are not with the glans. The glans is supposed to be sensitive because it has nerve endings which will be stimulated during sexual intercourse. It has to be stimulated when inside vagina and makes up and down movement. That is the reason why the glans has been provided with covering in the form of foreskin. Everyone has the glans sensitive and yours is no exemption. Don't worry about that. Hyper sensitive is not the word to describe it. Hope this answers your query. Available for further sexological clarifications. Good luck.

Hello, Your symptoms could be related to anxiety. Nevertheless, I would recommend performing some tests in order to exclude any possible cardiac arrhythmia or metabolic disorders: - a resting ECG and cardiac ultrasound-thyroid hormone levels for thyroid gland dysfunction- blood electrolytes for possible imbalance-complete blood count for anemia. A 24-48 ECG Holder monitoring would help exclude possible cardiac arrhythmia. If these tests result normal, you should consider anxiety as the main cause of your complaints. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Broke out in full body rash after taking amoxicillin 3-4 weeks ago, rash disappeared after a few days but then I got inflamed tonsils with erudite for another week. I think I may have actually had glandular fever but as most of my symptoms have disappeared this was no longer such a problem. However, recently every time I am stressed or in a hot ambient environment I will notice red blotchy skin on shoulders, neck and chest. This has not happened to me before.
|
Hello, Thanks for the query. Yes you are correct you might have got a glandular fever, Actually Amos should not be given in this condition. It can cause reaction. The red rashes can be urticaria, Treatment with anti histamines may be required. Please meet a dermatologist and discuss regarding this. Let me know if you have any other doubt. You can ask a direct question to me on this forum, following the below link.https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.ChatDoctor .com/doctors/ Chat Doctor. Thank you

Hi, even though my 6 year old daughter does not have symptoms of a low grade fever, she has however keep constant stomach aches and fatigue. Now she is showing brown circles under her eyes (like a very sick child) vs. black circles (tired, allergy, etc..looking). At one point her ped. recommended a CT scan, which revealed backed up bowels. We started using Miralax. Well, her symptoms have not improved and we do have a follow up coming up next week. I am trying to find answers, information, etc... because I have noticed that this is affecting her in school and in our daily lives. Please advise...Thank you... J
|
Fatigue and abdominal pain which was worrisome that she needed a CT scan is not consistent with constipation unless the child passes motion every couple of weeks, so MiraLax will not help if she doesn't have sever constipation .this abdominal pain which shifts the child away from school isn't consistent with functional abdominal pain either so its must be investigated carefully. I recommend the following blood tests : -complete blood count and blood film -fasting blood sugar -urea and creatinine -thyroid function test - celiac screen : anti-TTG IGA and total serum IGA -urine culture. These tests are to role out malignancy, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, hypothyroidism, celiac disease and urinary tract infection which all can cause abdominal pain and fatigue. I hope this helps

|
Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Inability to conceive or infertility can be due to many causes. You and your husband should be examined and investigated completely. Further treatment should be done depending upon the cause. If the ovulation induction has failed to result in pregnancy in your case, then you should go for intrauterine insemination. Hope you found the answer helpful. Wishing you good health. Chat Doctor.

|
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Most common cause for small pleural effusion is pneumonia. Other causes are tuberculosis, RA associated pleurisy etc. So to identify the cause, we should definitely aspirate fluid and send it for investigations. So other recommended tests are pleural fluid ADA, pleural fluid protein and sugar, pleural fluid routine and pleural fluid culture. So consult pulmonologist and discuss all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.

I moved to a very dry climate and have had a very stuffy but runny nose since January. I also noticed that my nose is read and inflamed inside. Its pretty swollen inside (polyps maybe). I dont know if its a sinus infection or allergies. It bleeds a little when I blow it but not any other time. Should I go see a doctor?
|
Hi, It is advisable to see a doctor as these symptoms could overlap between allergic conditions of nose to all the other conditions that you have thought of including sinusitis and polyps. An ENT specialist can thoroughly examine you clinically, advise some tests to rule out allergy if required, ask for some radiology investigations if required and start you on proper treatment for the condition. Although the symptoms overlap the treatment paths are very different for each one of the conditions. Srinivasan

I have taken diagnosis from sfdarjang hospital doctor . He advised me to take ultra sound of whole abdomen. I did but no any problems in the ultra sound report. But I still feel the problem. So what should i do?
|
Hi. Thanks for your query. Your problem of feeling of something touching internally from the left side for the last two months, with consultation of a Doctor from Safariing hospital and normal ultrasonography is suggestive that you should seek for further investigations. I would advise you the following since your problem is being continued :-Take another opinion of another Surgeon. Get CT scan of the whole abdomen done. If required barium studies and diagnostic laparoscopy can help a lot for the proper diagnosis and treatment. The possibilities are intestinal tumor as it is not picked by ultrasonography. Intermittent intestinal obstruction can mimic such a problem. You should see a General Surgeon when you are in actual symptoms for an easy diagnosis.

|
Hi, Dear. Welcome to Chat Doctor. Look if you want to delay your periods for next month then you are supposed to take some hormonal pills. And if you are pregnant then these pills will cause harm to your embryo. So I would not suggest you to take any pills before confirmation of your pregnancy. You can also use contraceptive this month to avoid pregnancy and try to conceive in the next month after your purpose for delaying your periods will be solved. Hope this answers your query.

I have been having painful diarrhea, the pain is in my lower abdomen in the center usually. Its just extremely tight, and sharp along with cramps. I cant hold it usually either. The urgency forces me to drop whatever Im doing so I can go to the bathroom to relieve the pain immediately. Its usually only a small hanful of soupy runny orange diarrhea with a foul smell. It is not watery. This has never happened before, the onset was overnight and its been ongoing for 4 days now, with an urgency every 2 hours or so. The only change I have recently had is I started dieting and eating a lot of nuts (which I discontinued and am still having the problem) and I started a vitamin (which I have taken in the past with no problem). Any ideas? Thoughts?
|
Hi welcome to Chat Doctor forum. Thanks for calling Chat Doctor. Forum. You have pain full dysentery, pain at lower middle of abdomen. It is a dysentery due to amoebic infection or may be an infection of the colon By bacteria or intolerance to certain foods like diary foods, or gluten containing foods. Of course intolerance possibilities are very less as it is a recent occurrence. I advise you to consult a Castro entomologist for diagnosis and treatment. You may have to use anaerobic antibiotics, anti-spasmodic, etc. for relief of the symptoms and infection. Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Best regards.

Hello doctor, Yesterday I ate some pizza and drank tea at around 9 pm at a party. I had a feel like there was something stuck at my upper stomach and had a little pain. I was ignoring it, but then I got worried it might be something bad. So I forced myself to vomit, and I kept vomiting for half an hour. I am not sure, but maybe there was a bit of blood. I felt a strong burn after that, and it got worse. I felt a sharp pain on the right chest every time I swallow. I am worried.
|
Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor forum. 1) Your symptom is suggestive of a small linear esophageal tear due to forceful vomiting. 2) In this condition, linear tear develops on the inner wall of the lowermost part of the esophagus. This is responsible for a small amount of blood in vomit and pain in the chest. 3) You should take semi-solid foods for a few days to promote healing of this tear. Otherwise, no specific treatment is required. 4) If pain is severe, then you can try antacid syrup to smoothen the lower part of the esophagus, which gives relief from pain and also promotes healing. 5) Also, remember, never induce forceful vomiting.

|
Hello, What kind of chest pain, is it at rest or on exertion? How much is your ejection fraction? Yes, we can't rule out the possibility of another blockages developing. Your shortness of breath may be cardiac dysfunction which can be known from echo. So if you need evaluation for the cause. Also, medicines need to be optimized so let me the know the list of entire medicines which you are having, so I can adjust. You can have Tab Arbitrate 5 mg sublingual and see if there is any relief of pain. If your ejection fraction is low then it's better to restrict fluid intake to relieve shortness of breath. Hope this helps you and get back if you have any questions.

I have had four teeth pulled recently due to a horrible taste in my mouth since Christmas of last year. after getting the teeth pulled nothing has subsided my gum just seeps and leaks making me sick to my stomach and causing blisters in my mouth. I have been sent around to three different dentists and no one has been able to figure it out. I recently have had a CAT and a ENT for my sinuses scan and nothing came back. I really need your help. Could I be allergenic to my fillings in my other teeth?

Hello am not able to understand did you pull out four teeth just to heal the bad taste. 1. You should check your blood sugar levels, fasting and random.2. Then try using Betadine gargle for two weeks.3. Kindly give information like your age, male or female, since when you are having this problem, do you have any other systemic conditions? 4. If possible send 2-3 intramural photos so that I can give you more accurate cause of the problem.5. Did the problem start since you had those fillings? Thank you

Good afternoon,I have a cracked tooth (tooth before the wisdom tooth in the left side) and the area around the tooth is red and has a medium size white bump next to it that just appeared today (10/7/14). I have a dentist appointment on Wednesday, October 15th, 2014. May I know more or less what this could be? any opinions, will be greatly appreciate it.
|
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The white bump around the cracked tooth can be a periapical or periodontal abscess secondary to infection from a cracked tooth. If I am your treating doctor, I would suggest you to take a radiograph like IOP AR to confirm the diagnosis. If there is an infection in tooth, then get it treated with root canal treatment. I hope my answer will help you, take care.

Hi i had sex with my girlfriend without protection,but sure sperm didnt go inside vagina, with in 2 hours she had taken unwanted 72,her normal period date is 3rd of everymonth so now its 3 delays,we had sex 5 days before her period ,could you please suggest any chances of pregnancy.
|
Hello, In a normal regular 28-30 day cycle, ovulation occurs on day 14-16. Any intercourse especially unprotected around this period is unsafe and carries the highest risk of pregnancy. Toward the end of the cycle, conception is not possible. Added to that, she has consumed the emergency pill and this provides 99% protection. Since the pill contains excess hormone, it tends to disturb the normal hormonal balance of the body and as a result, the next normal period may have been delayed. If she does not see her period even after 10-14 days after she is due. Please get expert help. Hope this helps.

Please explain me and suggest me the best way to cure it. Thanks much in advanceAge: 30weight : 76 kgHeight : 5 feet 10 inchs
|
Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor. After going through your query I think you are suffering from chronic backache. Treatment of back pain is exercises, NURSING GOLD ONCE DAILY and analgesics (diclofenac 100mgSR). Sometimes vitamin D deficiency is the cause so get your vitamin D checked. If it is low then vitamin D supplementation (On DK 60K weekly with milk) can be taken. Avoid long continuous standing. Sit in a straight posture. Eat milk, fruits and green leafy vegetables daily. Colonial sinus is different disease it is not related to backache. You may have both. Further, slight disc bulge on MRI may be normal. I think your query answered. Welcome to any follow-up query.

My boyfriend is Psychotic we have a good relationship and we dont argue much, but then there are days he talks to himself,walks in circles, says im sleeping with my ex, then told me he was through with me. i havent seen or heard from him in a week. what could be going on?
|
Degree understand your concerns went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. You must use such words with care. Talking to self, walks in circles and doubting are not symptoms of psychotic. But they are of over thinking or being preoccupied. Your boyfriend is preoccupied, and he doubts you because of the preoccupation. You shall talk to him regarding this. Let him know that he is behaving in absurd ways. Awareness can cure relatively simple problems. If he is not interested in you and when he is doubtful in you and when you say that he is psychotic, then why do you want to continue the relationship? If you want to really help him, take him to a psychologist / counselor, and he can help you professionally. In case you want my further assistance, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe some psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further. Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications. Good luck.

I am a 30yr old female asthmatic and suffer from wheeze and cough from it. I feel like Ive got something on my chest which I cant clear. Saw my Doctor last week and he said I havent got a chest infection. Last couple of days I seem to be choking quite a bit on my food, when it gets to the back of my throat
|
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Coughing and wheezing in asthmatic patient is more suggestive of worsening of underlying asthma. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).PFT will tell you about severity of the disease and treatment is based on severity only. You will need long acting inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or albuterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone). Azithromycin should also be started to prevent lung infection. 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 would explain that your clinical situation seems to be complex, and it is necessary performing a comprehensive differential diagnosis in order to investigate for the underlying possible causes: a cervical spine disorder, vitamin D deficiency, an inflammatory disorder, peripheral neuropathy, etc. For this reason, I would recommend consulting with your physician for a careful physical check up and some tests: - complete blood count- a cervical spine X-ray study- a chest X-ray study-thyroid hormone levels-vitamin D levels - blood electrolytes- a nerve conduction study to examine your nerves. A cervical spine MRI study may be needed in case of an abnormal neurological exam. Hope you will find this answer helpful! Best wishes,

I believe I have hair follicle cancer on my lips, nostrils and chin.I was advised to have a skin graft on my upper lip but decided to dig it out myself. Hard cores seem to be rooted deeply in the hair follicles and are very hard and painful to remove. And there is something in there as hard as fingernail which causes regular stabbing nerve pain. This has taken me two years. Are there any different treatments, like, a cream?
|
Hi, Thanks for writing in. If your symptoms are present for more than two years with no signs of aggressiveness and spreading then it is unlikely to be a cancer. There are few conditions involving hair follicles and these give rise to la broad group of neoplasms called skin adnexal tumors. Hair follicle tumors can be benign or malignant growths. It is important to consult a dermatologist and first confirm your condition. If a malignancy is suspected then more testing like a FNAC or biopsy might be indicated. Treatment depends on the type of cells found and any infection if present. Do not remove scabs with fingernails. Please do not worry.

my 4 year old little boy has a bump 1/4 in diameter on the outer edge of his upper left eyelid. It is about 3/16 tall in gets smaller after a night of sleep and then gets bigger as the day goes on. It has been there for three weeks, It is not getting better but not getting worse either. It doesn t seem to bother him what so ever. It looks like a bb under the skin and it is not red or anything. What is it?
|
Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor . I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns. As per your complaint a bump on the outer edge of the upper eyelid of your son seems to be an infection in the oil gland, and it can grow gradually over the days. Other causes of lump on eyelid can be Champion, papilloma, cyst etc. I would suggest you to consult an Ophthalmologist and get evaluated, and he can do a thorough clinical evaluation to rule out the exact cause of the lump and then only the appropriate treatment can be advised. As of now you can do warm compresses over the lump for reducing its size and if it is a style or a Champion it can start regressing in size. The physician can advise you to apply antibiotic ointment over it. If it is a cyst he can do incision and Chat Doctor. . Hope this information helps. Thanks and regards.

Hi doctor,Whenever I yawn sometimes it feels like I pulled something, and on my bottom jaw I push on it and something goes up.
|
Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor forum. Your upper and lower jaw are connected with a joint called temperomandibular joint. Similarly we have elbow joint and knee joint. The lower jaw is movable only because of this joint. So whenever you yawn, sounds like that joint is rubbing high and that is why you feel that something is going up. You might be able to hear a clicking noise as well if I am not wrong. If you are feeling sore at your joint every time after yawning, please visit a GP and he or she might give you a script for this like a muscle relaxant.

I have had a small hard bump right at the bottom of the shaft of try penis for about three months now. Doctor said it was from shaving but it still hadn t gone away and I ve tried to pop it several times but just blood comes out. I just out hydrogen peroxide on it and now it turned white. What do I do?
|
Thanks for asking in Chat Doctor forum In short: May be your doctor is rightExplanation: Usually who ever shaves pubic hair will have a tendency to have boils because of minor scratches and infection caused by shaving. So, it might be just a boil which is healing. So, wait for some time it will heal. Please do not put HY Chat Doctor. Now please apply point mupirocin/tobramycin over there and wait. If it does not subside then visit our doctor again.

Hello, Thanks for writing to us.First, you must repeat the home pregnancy test or undergo blood test for beta-ChatDoctor to confirm pregnancy. Without positive test result, taking Mightiest tab may NOT induce bleeding or period. It may cause ill-health effect. On NEGATIVE test, I can suggest progesterone pill (Norethisterone) for 5 days to induce period. You will get your period within 5 to 7 days after stopping medicine. On POSITIVE test, you have to undergo medical abortion under the guidance of local gynecologist. Taking abortion pill by yourself is NOT recommended at all. By procedure, at first, you need to take Tab Mifepristone or Mightiest 200Β mg (ideally 600Β mg) on D1, after 48 hrs take 2 Tab Bisoprolol 200Β mg in the morning and other 2 tabs need to insert inside vagina under supervision of gynecologist or local doctor. You may need double dose sometimes. Soon after taking Tab Bisoprolol, abdominal cramp and vaginal bleeding start within 7 days and next period may be earlier/delayed. Post pill abortion, you must do a USG lower abdomen to check retained bits/ conceptional products if any and may need D BC to complete abortion. Practice safe sex by using safe period/OCP/ other methods to prevent unwanted pregnancy. Be well. Good luck.

I am experiencing numbness in my left arm all day already. It felt like a shock just below my elbow for most of the day and that caused my arm to go numb. for the last 10 minutes I have been sneezing and with the sneezing comes a terrible pain in my left arm which makes my fingers and arm in the elbow nook go numb. What can it be?
|
Hi, Thanks for writing in. The spine is made up of an alignment of small bones. These bones have sponge like discs between them and the spinal cord passes along the back of these bones through the spinal canal. There might be pressure on the discs in the cervical spine during sneezing and this is causing slight pressure on the spinal canal at a particular level and causing pinching of nerve roots leading to severe pain in the area supplied by the nerve. As your symptoms are on the left it is possible that the nerve roots on the left side are affected. You require to be examined a neurologist and an MRI of the cervical spine if indicated to know if the nerve are under pressure and the location. There are patients who get relief by doing physiotherapy and taking neurogenic pain relievers. Injections are also given for relief. However, this might not always happen. If your pain is severe and not responding to medical treatment then the disc protrusion needs to be removed by doing a small surgery at the cervical neck region. Presently, laser assisted surgical techniques are also available. If this is the first time this has happened then it is a mild problem. Please do not worry.

Hello doctor,I was diagnosed with diastolic dysfunction. The report says velocity E is 84.2 cm/s, and the MVA max velocity is 133.5 cm/s. What does this mean?
|
Hello. Diastolic dysfunction means there is dysfunction in cardiac relaxation. This is not a worrisome thing and quite common in elders, overweight and patients with hypertension, and other diseases which must have been ruled out on echo and ECG. However, this may cause symptoms like shortness of breath, pedal edema, etc. Needs to have a low salt diet and low dose diuretics like Torsemide for shortness of breath. I Hope this helps you and get back if you have any doubts.

Hello Doctor, This morning my husband woke with the sensation of not being able to control the right side of his face. It is not numb he has the same feeling on both sides. He can chew. He does not have a headache . However you can see a slight difference between the two sides. His right eye is very dry and he is finding it difficult to blink. He is 46yrs old with no previous health issues. He has never smoked. No obvious insect bites and no trauma. Any guidance you can offer would be very appreciated.
|
Hello Madam. Your husband has developed paralysis of right side of face that is why he is not able to blink and is having Chat Doctor. Facial nerve controls muscles of our face and many diseases affecting it can cause such problems. You need to see a doctor (preferably neurologist) on an emergency basis who would see him and start appropriate treatment. The treatment response is generally good in such cases. Physiotherapy too would be needed along with medications. He should periodically close his eye using his hands. That would help in maintaining the eye moist. Artificial tear

I am doing the race for life in may, and have had a back opp about 4 years ago, The problem is just lately I have had pain in the lower back and side.This pain is sore most of the time ,and Im just woundering if I should run anymore? Can you advice me?
|
Welcome to Chat Doctor .1. No, not advised to run along with pain.2. Visit your GP get an x-ray lumbar spine done, and depending on findings you may have to get MRI done (which will help to find out your disc and nerve status).3. After that depending on the findings, you may have to do some simple exercise on daily basis which will relieve from the pain.4. Do not simply bare the pain or take painkillers, please evaluate the cause and get treatment accordingly. Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health. Anything to ask ? Do not hesitate. Thank you.

I believe I had an infection in a hair follicle near my armpit.It seems to be going away...but when I first terated with peroxide and then squeezed it, it sort of work but now there is still a bump there.How can I make sure I do not get an infection?
|
Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor . I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns. As per your complaint a lump in the armpit the has started regressing in size can due to hair follicle infection or a swollen lymph node. As both these conditions resolve gradually YOY need not worry as it will resolve soon. You should take a course of antibiotics like Cephalexin or Amoxicillin. Take anti-inflammatory painkillers like Ibuprofen. Do warm compresses over the lump. Avoid scratching it touching it again and again as it can get further infected and tender. In case if there is no improvement in a week consult a General Physician and get evaluated. Hope this information helps. Thanks and regards. Chat Doctor. .

I am 26 year old female battling infertility issues. I have been trying to conceive for two years ( 9 months with an infertility doctor). I have had a laproscopy (sp) and the only thing that was found was cysts on the outside of my tubes. The doctor stated this was nothing to worry about. I have been on Clomid now for 9 months. Everything I have found online states you should not take it more than three cycles. I recently went back to the doctor on July 1st and nothing was changed. The only thing was that I did not have a cycle in June, so he placed me on Medroxypr AC 10mg. I am now on day 8 of 10 and still no cycle. I asked him if he thought my Crohns Disease could be affecting my infertility or the absorption of the Clomid ( as in the past I have had trouble with absorption of birth control due to my Crohns Disease). He stated no. Do you think it is time for a second opinion? Do you have any suggestions?
|
Hello, Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor. Forum. Cyst near the tube, but what is the size of cyst? Oynaecologist ovum is liberated from follicle (when they mature and releases ovum). The important thing is maturation of follicles. Hence, you are having cyst, so please get in blood examination for hormones such as, estrogen (estradiol), F S H/ L H. Also get in blood for testosterone level as in patients of cyst there are imbalance of hormones. Athletic follicles of ovarian stoma changed, so evaluation is very important. Consult one more Gynecologist and get his opinion (2nd). Thereafter deal according to situation. Good luck.

Hey doc, my name is Alexander. My question is can to much masturbating like 6-8 times a day can cause inguinal hernia ? I feel pain in right groin all the way to the right testicle. Sometimes when I hold my penis the right testicle is contracting by himself, I don t have any control. It s like making contraction and going up and I feel pain, but usually don t feel that much pain. Thanks. I really apriciate your answer and your time.
|
Degree understand your concerns went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. You must be aware that masturbation is no sin. Masturbation is natural and even animals do it. For a youngster of age group 13 to 17 masturbation every day is normal. After that also it is normal, but people get engaged in some other activities like games, education, career etc. which are more engaging and energy consuming. There are people who masturbate daily even at middle adulthood. The trouble is lack of knowledge and the anxiety arising out of it. Feeling guilty will trigger anxiety. Masturbation is not unhealthy and cannot be a cause to hernia. 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.

i an 54 yrs. old male.I am having little bit imbalance when I get up and while walking(this is there for the last one year and not all the time during day.Ifeel very uncomfortable when I experience it).For the last ten days I am feeling like rotating(GYRATING) when I get awakened from sleep in the night.If I want to go for urination I have to catch hold of the room wall.This is for a few minutes,after that normalcy will be there.I went to a nuerologist and he prescribed some tablets 1)veritaz,2) BELAVET16,both twice daily for 1 week3)tolpertasD4)rabificD,both in the morning for 3 days.He asked me to conduct a CT scanning of head next week.Iam taking the medications for last three days.Doctor told me I may be having spondylosis.But in internet I have not read gyration of head is a symptom of spondylosis.Besides I have pain at ths back of neck immesiately below the skull.Pl. let me know what it is.

Hi, At this age there are few possibilities giving rise to this problem.1, Cerebrovascular insufficiency,2, Postural hypotension,3, Cervical spondylitis,4, Some problem in ear like Sclerosis. As you get pain at back of neck is again sign of cervical spondylitis. Vertigo, you feel also common in C. spondylitis. Go for S.cholesterol, Lipid profile. CT scan also will give some important clue about your problem. Consult Neuro-physician and discuss this. Ok and take care.

I am 26 married girl. My period were bit irregular somtime were 10-15 days late and sometime normal. this time it 2 and month i have not periods. pregnancy is negative. Pelvis scan is normal. No thyroid problem tested. I took (gynec suggested) cyclenorm P and E for 3days and then promulat-n 3 tabs for 5 days still no results after 10 days also. I am worried and I want a baby also. please help.
|
Hi, I have gone through your query and understood your concern. If I were to treat you, I would ask for a complete hormone profile including FSH, LH, serum estrogen and progesterone, serum Prolactin, serum RHEAS, insulin levels, ovulation studies and analysis of your partner. A normal pelvic sonogram mostly rules out polycystic ovaries as the cause of your hormone disturbance. If you did not get your thyroid profile done, please get it now. After your hormone levels are known, any deficiencies can be suitably corrected. If your partner has any defects that need correction, this also can be done simultaneously, since you are anxious to conceive. Meanwhile, please try to maintain a healthy BMI with diet and exercise. Hope this helps.

hi. My vit B12 levels are 122pg/ml. I am a 48 yr old female. I have been advised inj eldervit I.M in foll way- 1 inj daily for 7 days, then 1 inj once a wk for 12 wks, then 1 inj once a mth for 1 yr.Will dose be sufficient to raise my B12 levels? Also, i hv taken 3 injections , but there is not much relief frm the breathlessness and calk muscle pains.
|
Hi, Thanks for asking. Based on your clinical history and query, my opinion is as follows:1. Hi, depending on your anemia, it would take a minimum of 2-3 weeks for response and improvement symptomatically for breathlessness and calf muscle pains.2. Additionally, eggs and dairy products can also be used to improve B12 levels.3. Check with reticulocyte count after 15 days of treatment to identify improvement. Hope it helps. Any further queries, happy to help again.
