my son is four months old and he has hypospadia He will have surgery at six months but the urologist recomended some testosterone shots before the surgery How do this shots affect a four month old baby.?will he have any growth issues because of this shots later?
|
Hi, welcome to this forum. Can understand your concern.* testosterone is used before surgery in hypomanias because it is beneficial in terms of increasing the size of penis and penis skin in hypomanias.* Testosterone improves the texture, vascularity, and reliability of penile skin and its use is associated with negligible side effects.* testosterone increases the penile size, and when the size of penis increases it is easy for the surgeon to do surgical repair. I hope this will help you. Wishing your child good health. Take care.

Hubby has chrone he hurt his back and cant walk so we took him to hospital when he got there he needed a blood transfusion 4 bags and also a bag of iron i also gave him a humira shot he has since got home and he seems worse he has swallen gums face sore throat he is tired in a lot of pain and still cant walk noone has any idea can u help he is 42 weight 80 kg
|
Hi, If he was that ANEMIC that he required that many bags of blood AND iron then, he needs to be seen for BLOOD LOSS issues which would include GI bleeding and then, on the other side of the equation, blood production problems which would include bone marrow pathologies. I highly recommend getting a consultation with a GI specialist and a HEMATOLOGIST/ONCOLOGIST as he may also have some type of tumorous growth in the body that needs to be identified. I'm not sure why you would give him a shot of HUM IRA unless it belongs to him, and you were instructed to that. Otherwise, if the Humor is something he only received based on your desire to help, and he immediately got swollen gums and face then, perhaps he's having an allergic reaction to that medication. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hi, I am about to go in for a colonoscopy due to blodd from the bowel, bloating and stomach distention and very acute pain....I did not mention to my Gastroenterologist that I have had the most excruciating coccyx pain over the past few months and I mentioned it to a friend when I was telling them I am going for the procedure this Friday and she mentioned that coccyx pain along with the other symptoms I have are very similiar to her father and he was found to have colorectal cancer during the colonoscopy....can coccyx pain be related to cancer? I am 50 and the issues I have been having are going on now for approx six months
|
Hi, Thanks for writing in. Pain in coccyx is unlikely to be the presenting symptoms in colorectal cancer. However, in advanced disease such a pain might be felt. Most pain involving coccyx is because of trauma which might have occurred years back. Sometimes it can also be due to inflammation of fat around the rectal region. If the pain is severe then please get an X-ray of coccyx done. Rarely the pain in coccyx might also be due to bone involvement in prostate cancer and this requires investigation including blood test called PSA level. You might discuss with your doctor if you require this test. Please do not worry.

Hi all diseases are curable except death. So do not panic. In yoga there are breathing exercises which will help you too much. You can see it on the internet. Second press on your right palm on the line which is under your three fingers under the small finger. There will be pain [press and leave for 10 second repeats for 2 minutes] two to three times daily .......... do inhale daily [crush one full garlic and one tablespoon of black seeds] twice a day. Morning and evening.

Hi I have recently been diagnosed with H-Pylori by Gastrscopy, but I think my symptoms are more than just that, here s my symptoms: Nausea, nervousness, stomach gas, panicky feelings, fears, anxiety, worries, negative thoughts, depression, tiredness, fatigue, sleepiness, back pain, diarrhea, lack of appetite, weight loss. What I may have? thanks Mike
|
Hello, Treatment for Helicobacter Pylori depends on which part of world do You live. In the United States the recommended primary therapies for Helicobacter Pylori is PPI (proton pump inhibitor), azithromycin, amoxicillin and metronidazole for 14 days or PPI, bismuth, metronidazole and tetracycline for 10-14 days. However, Helicobacter Pylori is found in about 80% of the worlds' population. Some of these symptoms You have described fits to Helicobacter Pylori infection (like: nausea, diarrhea, weight loss), but symptoms like panic feelings, fears, anxiety, worries, depression, tiredness, fatigue, sleepiness shows that the problem is somewhere else. In my opinion You should go to psychiatrist or psychologist and talk about Your worries. You may have depression or anxiety disorder but to be sure You should contact Your doctor. Common treatment options include lifestyle changes, therapy and medications. Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.

I have had consistent left flank pain. I am currently on cipro 500mg two times a day for kidney infection. I am on second week of four week dose. This has been a persistent infection which is now gone according to my last culture, but the pain is not gone. It is just below my ribs in my back on the left side and at times comes around to the side and front. It seems worse after I eat or drink and mornings and evenings. Help
|
Dear patient As per your description pain is located in left renal angle and most common reason is kidney pathology and kidney stone. Since you are having renal infection this diagnosis is highly likely. Infection in kidney might heal but damage to renal parenchymal persists and this is responsible for pain. You need to consult expert nephrologist nearby your area and get yourself examined. Investigation required are 1. Ultrasound of kidney ureter and bladder 2. Intravenous paleography 3. Ct scan abdomen plain SOS contrast. All the best.

Hi I have had a terrible pain in my right arm at the front of my elbow where my arm bends, it comes and goes very randomly but when I do have the pain every time I bend it fully or straighten it fully the pain is unbearable but sometime with abit of fiddling about with my hands the pain goes into I bent it again Any ideas would be wonderful
|
Hi, The location and movement of a pain gives clues as to what is going on. Going from an area in a line implies nerve and the funny bone is actually the ulnar nerve which runs over the outside of the elbow in a groove there. Rest and anti-inflammatories often help, but sometimes very slight surgery to relieve pressure is needed. Cannot say in your particular case, but generally, this would be true. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

My girlfriend and I have anal sex on a regular basis. We are both still very young at 15 years old. My concern is for her well being. I want to be sure I wont hurt her in some way. We are both 100% clean as we have never had any other partners. But can she get anal cancer? or some other disease or infection? I really enjoy doing it but I need to be sure that im not hurting her somehow. Thankyou
|
Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. No risk of anal cancer due to anal sex. But you should take precautions. Because chance of infection is high in anal sex then the vaginal sex. Because miss is tougher and chances of injuries and infection are high. Otherwise, it is safe. No chance of cancer. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.

Hi Sir, My elder bro was droped from motor bike more than a year ago. His left knee was swallowed for one or two days and become ok. New same knee has been swallowed and severe pain is in it. MRI is done and doctors are advising KCL tratment. which is too much costly also. Please advise your opinion in this regards. Also advise KCL tratment is necessary ?? its side effects??
|
Hi your brother had injury (L)Knee due to fall from bike more than a year ago and has now swelled again. MRI shows ACL tear, and you have been advised ACL reconstruction surgery. Ant Cruciate ligament is a major stabilizer of knee joint and any rupture will cause instability in the knee joint with repeated swelling. In my opinion ACL Reconstruction should be done as early as possible. There is virtually no major side effect and these points about the problems / side effects can be discussed with your surgeon before operation.

Most web sites say that the treatment for shingles ( herpes zoster ) may be acyclovir 800mg. 5 times daily for 7 to 10 days. Is 800mg. 4 times daily for 5 days adequate treatment for the shingles, and if not should there be a break in the dosage of 7 to 10 days?
|
Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor. I read your question carefully, and I understand your concern. In order to be more specific, I would like to know your age, if you have other chronic diseases (like diabetes for example) and what type of signs/symptoms do you have? Since you didn't write any additional information, I will try to be specific in a general way. I'm saying this because based in your general health, forms of outbreak and comorbidities the approach of treatment might vary. The dose of Acyclovir (if you are an adult) is as you said firstly - 800 mg 5 times daily for 7-10 days (without interruptions)In order to alleviate the symptoms you can try applying Burrow solution. Against itching calamine lotion is helpful. Consult with your doctor regarding pain management (analgesics, TCAS or anticonvulsant)I hope my answer was helpful. Wishing you a good health

Hi doctor.. I am getting excited even when my girl friend just holds my hand and walks with me. i have no intention of having sex with her now. But when ever she is with me or even when she holds my hand and walks, my penis gets hardened and i have this itching sensation in my balls and an hour or so a pain in my balls and penis. Ijust have to leave from ther giving some excuse. I am truely in love with her. Initially i thought since this was the first time i touch a girl i feel so. BUt this happenes everytime i am with her. My penis leaks at times then. i browsed net is this called premature ejaculation?? I used to mastrubate before (say a year back )but now i dont do that. Has it some thing to do with it.?? I need ur help doc. Please help me overcome this. Is this curable.?? i just want to spend some time with her with our all these pain and problems.!!
|
Hello, Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor for posting your query. I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through. No this may not be a premature ejaculation. It's normal for a boy to get stimulated leading to some pain and seminal leakage. There is no need to worry. Masturbation is also safe and there is no problem. This thing will settle down with time. You may even masturbate before meeting the girl which will reduce the stimulation, and you will be comfortable. Team is the best healer in this case.... Hope I am able to answer your concerns. If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you. In future if you wish to contact me directly, or want to further details about your query, you can use the below-mentioned link:bit.ly/ Chat Doctor.

|
Hi Mrs Shakti nail, As you are correctly responding it is the correct time to be particular about conceiving. As your doctor has correctly diagnosed there is possibility of P.C.O.S. which causes irregular periods and infertility. But there are other causes as well, as insulin sensitivity which can be corrected by Chat Doctor. If present it should be corrected first to get successful correction of the P.C.O.S. Ferry (CLSID) is a good choice for correction of an ovulation, besides it is also important to take good food rich in link, iron, proteins, multivitamins, and minerals. Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, fruits, juices, milk, meat, chicken, and egg. Finally mating recommendations have sex between 11th and 20th days. Avoid having sex up to 10th day especially male partner. Male above pattern is preferable. Should not be washed immediately after the completion of the sex to be fertile. Wishing for a quick and fruitful result, and thanks for calling.

Hello doctor,I got in a scuffle. Near my fingernails, I saw blood. I am not sure if it was mine or the offenders. I have no deep wound. Just small marks from biting nails or from handcuffs. I am worried if the offender was infected with HIV and it was his blood. Any advice?
|
Hello. I have noted your concern. HIV is only transmitted through a fresh, deep, and actively bleeding wound. A scratch or a paper cut would not provide direct access for the virus into the bloodstream. Regards. For more information consult an HIV AIDS specialist online

I just brush my teeth and I felt tiny things in between my teeth and when I look at it after running my fingers through the front bottom of my mouth its a thin white layer of skin...I used a whitening toothpaste with my electric toothbrush...why is this happening?
|
Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Read your query. On reading your symptoms, we can deduce that you have applied excessive force while brushing and have brushed your gum areas which has caused the wear and tear of the gums. I would advise you to do salt water gargling or an antiseptic mouthwash gargling. Do not apply too much pressure as it may harm the teeth and gums. Learn the correct method of brushing from your dentist. Hope this was useful. Thanks and regards.

|
Seizures are controllable disease and needs proper treatment. Death can occur only if seizure is not controlled and causes cardiorespiratory arrest, i mean choking, severe breathlessness. Always take fast steps whenever you get the attack. You have not mentioned your type of epilepsy and severity. But if it is not very recurrent and severe then chances of complications and death are very rare. Relax and follow your doctors' advice. I hope I answered your query. Wish you good health.

Last evening while turning my body in bed I suddenly felt intense pain on my left side in the lower abdominal area. It has continued today. Iam able to walk etc, but when I sneeze or move suddenly to reposition myself in a chair I feel a deep pain in the lower left abdomen. What could this be?
|
Hi, Thanks for providing the brief history of YouScience you mentioned the mechanism of injury I feel it should be just a muscle spasm. For which you can use the hot water fermentation and once the pain level comes down you can proceed to do some core strengthening exercises and spine strengthening too. Be slow in performing exercises. Within a week the pain also should be down, and the muscles will start getting the strength as you keep on continuing the exercises and avoid any future symptoms. In case, with in 72 hours of the pain does not reduce, getting checked by a physician and undergoing an abdominal scan is not harmful. If any systemic illness is there, that can be easily found out. Or else in most cases it is just gastritis and muscle spasm. Always, Never to ignore the smallest injury. Prevention is better than cure. Feel free for anymore queriesRegardsJay In Chat Doctor.

Have been to a and e with healthy pal today coughing up blood, shadow on lung on X-ray. Previous shadow seen few years ago, diagnosed as latent TB. It s bigger today. Really well other than this. Going to Gp Wednesday for referral into Thorazine dept x to.d possibly to or lung cancer
|
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. Coughing out blood is known as hemoptysis. And it is not a good sign. Hemoptysis can be seen in many causes, but common ones are1. Tuberculosis2. Chronic bronchitis. 3. Malignancy4. Pneumonia 5. Lung trauma etc. Since you had tuberculosis in the past, I think recurrence of tuberculosis is the cause for your Hemoptysis at present. So consult pulmonologist and get done chest x-ray and sputum AFB to rule out this. You may need CT THORAX and Bronchoscopy to rule out other causes. So consult pulmonologist and discuss all these.

for no reason my lower abd will swell up like I am 9 months preg. and will do so in 5-10 min time span and is very painfull. no one can figure it out. It will not go down for 1-2 days. This has been going on for months. I have had abnormal paps. The drs say its nothing to worry about. I finally found a dr that said I have HPV and did a biopsy yesterday. could that be the cause od my abd pain?
|
Thank you user for your queryKindly mention you age, also you can get vaccinated for HPV 16 and 18 virus. For HPV you need to consult a gynecologist as she will let you know about what to do further. Your history is not clear also. Are you having loss of appetite, weight loss, bleeding or leaking per magnum? Kindly get in touch with all the symptoms clearly, as for the time being you can go ahead to seek gynecologist advice. God Bless

Sometimes semen leaks out of my penis (It usually leaks after I pee but it doesn t happen all the time, it usually happens if I ve had an erection earlier) and afterwards there is a pain in the shaft. The pain usually goes away on it s own or if I get an erection and after the erection has subsidized the pain will go away. Sometimes after I masturbate I get a painful second erection and if I masturbate the pain goes away and I ll be just fine for the third erection, sometimes I can even masturbate twice and the third erection will hurt. I don t necessarily need to masturbate for the pain to go away, sometimes I pour cold water on my penis to kill the erection and after it dies the pain completely disappears.
|
Dear, We understand your concerns went through your details. Semen leakage is a normal and involuntary process and there is nothing to worry about it. As you are already aware, the semen is being produced when you are sexually aroused. The produced semen is stored within your body as a waste product. Body needs to eject the waste. If you masturbate, the stored semen goes out. Otherwise, the body throws it out through urine or nocturnal ejaculation (night fall). This process is pretty much normal. The pain you are talking about after ejaculation, during second masturbation etc. are due to the hard handling of penis during masturbation. Please be soft while masturbating. This improves the sexual pleasure as well as it improves the retaining capacity. You may consult a psychologist for counseling. 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 detail possible. Hope this answers your query. Further clarifications are welcome. Good luck. Happy New Year. Take care.

Can anxiety make you feel like there are little shocks in your body? I feel twitchy like I cant stand being in my own skin. I have felt it before, and I know I have anxiety, but I dont know if this is part of it. Its very disconcerting. It is so scary because obviously you cant get out of your skin!
|
Degree understand your concerns went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Anxiety is a disorder and not a disease and disorder do not need medicines. But anxiety is capable of producing symptoms which are unheard of anywhere. It is related to mind being thinking weirdly. Actually, due to anxiety, our mind thinks and imagines symptoms. This condition is called somatoform disorder. Awareness, relaxation and psychotherapy should cure you. You can post a direct question to me in this website. Include every detail as much as you can. I shall prescribe some psychotherapy techniques to control your condition. I am sure that the techniques should be a success. Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications. Good luck.

I was playing baseball and the pitcher missed and hit me on my shin, there was a massive bruise but after 3 weeks it dissapeared and left me with a lump/bump..it won t go away. it doesn t hurt at all except when I hit it or fall on it. should I see a doctor?
|
Hi, Thanks for your query. From description, this hard lump most probably formed due to hematoma formation (collection of blood) which might get fibrosis or calcified. It will take few weeks to months to get disappear. I suggest you to consult an orthopaedician nearby for a detailed examination of swelling. You may get the X-ray of the area affected under his/her guidance.Meanwhile, give hot fomentation over it, You can take Tablet Motrin 1 tablet with food as and when required (up to 4 tablets daily). I do hope that you have found something helpful, and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care

my son who is 4 and about 38lbs. has been complaining of a stomach ache right around his navel and has thrown up several times( all liquid looking vomit). He has complained some about a headache and at one point it felt as though he had a slight fever though has been hard to tell his whole body has felt hot most of the day. When I gave him a bath to try and help him feel better he got out of the tub with teeth chattering and his whole body shaking like he was freezing but he felt warm to the touch! What is wrong with him. I have given him fever reducer.
|
Hi... Thank you for consulting in Chat Doctor. Fever of few days without any localizing signs could as well a viral illness. Usually rather than fever, what is more important is the activity of the child, in between 2 fever episodes on the same day. If the kid is active and playing around when there is no fever, it is probably viral illness and it doesn't require antibiotics at all. Once viral fever comes it will there for 4-7 days. So do not worry about duration if the kid is active. Regards -

I broke my tibia 7 weeks ago. The fracture had minimum displacement. My OS placed a patellar cast 2 weeks ago. However, I had a minor scare at a restaurant where I slipped and lost balance and accidently stepped on my broken leg. The doc gave me permission to put 45-50% of my weight on it. But my concern is whether the bone can move after 7 weeks?
|
Hello, I have studied your case and can assure you that movement can not take place if your limb is in cast. This can only happen if cast is broken or damaged. But yes it can displace after 7 weeks also as some time there is only soft callous, and it can get broke. So I would recommend you to get a check x-ray to see if every thing is alright. I hope this answer will be helpful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions. Thanks

Hello doctor,I am a 32-year-old healthy woman. A few days ago, I noticed a small bony lump on the side of my foot below my ankle, which was not symmetrical on the other foot. It was a small sharp bony protrusion of around 1.5 mm and I could see it through my skin. I am very sure I did not have this thing before say one year ago or so. There was no pain when I touched it and no inflammation visible. I have attached a photo of it as well. You can easily see the pointy bony protrusion from that position. My question is can this be a benign bone spur or is it possibly something more serious? Is that spot on my foot typical for bone spurs? I have been walking a lot lately since I have a 10-month-old baby and I did feel my ankles getting a bit strained after each walk. Should I go to a doctor now or can I just monitor it and see what it does? Also, can bone spurs continue to grow or only malignant stuff do? Many thanks for any information.

Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor forum. This seems to be benign. So, you should not worry. This professional advice provided by me stands subject to the actual examination of report or image and is based entirely on inputs provided to me. It should be correlated with clinical findings.

I have had a very upset stomach for last 5 days i havent gotten sick just an upset stomach. It started suddenly late Thursday night to the point I couldnt stand up. If I stood up I felt like I was going to be sick I finally got to bed and went to sleep. Ever since then I wake up with either a slight stomach ache or nothing. But when I eat anything I either get a stomach ache right as Im eating or like three minuets later Ill get one. Ive been living of toast and soup for the last five days because thats all my stomach can seem to handle
|
Hi, Thanks for posting your query. Stomach pain after eating occurs in three conditions: cholecystitis, pancreatitis and peptic ulcer disease. With the available described symptoms there could be high possibility of peptic ulcer disease in stomach. Gastric ulcer gets irritated after taking food and may cause severe pain. You should consult with internal medicine specialist/ general surgeon and should go for thorough check up. You should also go for complete blood count, blood sugar, serum electrolytes, and serum amylase. Furthermore, you should also go for ultrasound imaging and x-ray abdomen. Furthermore, you should also go for endoscopy for better clarification of upper gastrointestinal tract. Furthermore, you should also take proton pump inhibitors along with prokinetics. Furthermore, you should avoid tomatoes, and citrus fruits. Take care,

Hi ! Good evening. I am Chat Doctor answering your query. If I were your doctor, I would advise you to get her urine tested for routine/microscopic and culture sensitivity test to rule out an unsuspected urinary tract infection, and treat the same with appropriate antibiotics which would cure her condition. If inconclusive, I would advise for an ultrasound of abdomen and if need be, an opinion from a gastroenterologist to rule out any intro abdominal pathology. Also, I would advise her not to go for any food from outside to avoid any intestinal infection creeping in causing abdominal pain. I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts. Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Chat Doctor.

My question is last night I was lying down and I noticed my heel and my ankle was hot. It was litterally hotter than the rest of my body. What does this mean?
|
Hello, The hot sensation or local temperature in the ankle is one of the signs of the inflammation of the ankle joint and tendons. Other signs are swelling, red color, and pain. So presuming that you did not have a fracture 2 months ago (x-ray would show it), I think this is a bad ankle sprain that needed more careful treatment with bed rest the first days, ice pack and elevation of the leg above the heart level in the first weeks and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor. Maybe you continued to go to work next day and standing all the day causes swelling and inflammation around the ankle. So I would suggest you to take some rest days and do the above treatment. Once the hot sensation and swelling goes down then you can start physical therapy, so it does not repeat. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Yes - I am 49 years old, weigh 130 pounds I am a runner and a fitness instructor. I recently took on a full time job where I sit at a desk. I still teach and run 8 hours a week. Recently I am experiencing swelling of the lower legs - knee to ankle and bloating of the abdomen. After I remove my work shoes, I have indentations where the straps have been. My lower legs feel tight like sunburn without the burn. My abdomen and waist is enlarged. I haven t had a period in 6 months. What is going on??

I had an episode tonight : I began to choke on aspirated liquid. My partner began pounding my back. Then my hands began to move as if to clap. My face turned purple. I lost consciousness for a bit. When I began to regain it I noticed my hands still moving as though to clap. I was still having trouble getting any air. Eventually I did. Now my partner and sister are freaked out: You were in seizure!!!, You were GONE!!! etc. Did I have a seizure? Is it brain related or due to lack of oxygen to the brain? If I need to see a doctor, what specialty? I don t have a primary care physician that has any decent history on me... Any thoughts???
|
Hello! Welcome on Chat Doctor ! Its seems that you have had a seizure. For this reason, I would recommend consulting with a neurologist and performing a careful neurological exam and some tests: - an EEG-complete blood count-blood electrolytes -a brain CT scan or MRI study. Other tests to consider would be a cardiac check up, including a cardiac ultrasound and an ambulatory Holder rhythm monitoring for cardiac arrhythmia. Hope you will find this answer helpful! Kind regards,

I (29 yrs old, female) initially had pain occasionally in my left foot, which followed only after a lot of walking or carrying the kid for long. When I consulted the doctor, he said that I have a kind of flat foot. He adviced me to have Tendocare- once daily for 3 weeks. After I had the medicine for 5 days, the pain increased so much so that I am barely being able to walk properly now. Curving my left foot s thumb towards the body, makes me feel a sensation that is close to a pricking nail (at the point the foot has an arch). The pain is continous (even when I am not walking) , getting unbearable & disturbing. Please suggest urgently.
|
In flat foot the inside arch of foot is lost. This causes bearing of more load and stress on muscles and bones of inside the foot then their usual capacity. It causes pain on standing & walking. In advance stages due to swelling of muscles and soft tissue, pain may occur while resting.anti-inflammatory analgesic such as ibuprofen, icing and wearing of medial shoe raise (commercially easily available) inside the shoes while walking will give relief in pain and other symptoms. She raises will make artificial curve of foot and distribute the load accordingly. Hope this helps. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Wishing you good health.

Hi I have been feeling unwell for a few weeks now with a sore throat I have seen my GP and was referred to ent specialist the scan did not show any thing. Endoscopy did not show any thing either. My sore throat is killing me . Consultant said it could be acid reflux has given me tablets for it. However I have this morning noticed that my bone on the right hand side of my collar bone has grown. I am really concerned and worried. Could it be cancer ?
|
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion no need to worry much. You are not having cancer as your endoscopy and scan is normal. So forget about malignancy. In my opinion you are having inflammatory enlargement of right cervical lymph node due to sore throat. Most common cause of sore throat is infection. So may BD this infection gives you enlarged nodes. Better to start antibiotics. If not improve in 5 days than get done clinical examination of swelling.

Hello and thanks for your query. I understand that you are going through a difficult time due to your problems. From the description of your symptoms, it appears that you are suffering from Social Anxiety Disorder. All the symptoms that you have described such as trembling, sweaty palms, nausea, vomiting, etc. are all anxiety-related. Even the nausea and throwing up are physical manifestations of anxiety. Since your problem is quite disabling, I would suggest that you seek professional help. There are effective treatment options in the form of medication or psychological therapy which can help you overcome your problems. So, please consult a psychiatrist for a detailed evaluation and further treatment.

hi doc i have pain in my upper abdomen, nausea and heavy head. i have done endoscopy,ct scan abdomen,brain mra scan,got my eye test, went to ENT, but everything is normal. i have used nexium tab twice a day, then razo D,then nexpro 40 and now pantosec. out of four medicine pantosec 40 is little effective . could u help me with the dosage?
|
Hi. Pain in upper abdomen, nausea and heavy head with all the relevant investigations normal and only Panto sac helping a bit. It looks you have got a problem related to stress or anxiety or a spinal cord problem. I would suggest you to take a second opinion of another Gastrointestinal Surgeon and a Neurologist as a last chance get MRI of the spine and treatment for the stress done, I hope this may help to get a diagnosis as well as treatment Also go for test of blood - Tidal for typhoid, Malaria and X-ray chest to rule out a lung problem which can give referred pain in upper abdomen.

cause Sneezing very often hi i often cause sneezing problem very now n then. sometimes its dust allergy bt evn if dust is not there i get sneeze quite a lot. i guess i have a very sensitive nose. it also makes my head feel very heavy. please tell me what to do?ThanksPrayas
|
Hi,first let me tell you that an already congested nose is very much sensitive, even a small change in the smell of air can induce sneezing, so it is very important to treat a congested nose or running nose, go for total and differential count of white blood cells to rule out eosinophilic. You can take some anti-allergic like levocetrizine, montelukast, Milton orally. If your nose is congested then you can take nasal Chat Doctor.

Hello Sir, 6 years back I went to a doctor to clean my tooth s but he used a sharp device to clean my tooth s and he strained my gums. I never paid attention to that because I was very young at that age but now i feel so embarrassed when people say your tooth are dirty. Please let me know is there any solution to get my gums back and how much it cost.
|
APPARENTLY there is no way that gums can get any stain from cleaning procedure. The sharp device used is the ultrasonic scale which uses vibrations and water to clean teeth and gums. That reason you are seeing your gums dirty is the gap of 6 years you did NT have the cleaning done again. Go to the dentist and get the cleaning done. Scaling will remove all the plaque and calculus from teeth and gums, and you will feel much more clean, confident and healthy. Take care.

i always feel down and suddenly happy, and sometimes i can go for days without feeling upset. But then little things can suddenly trigger all my anger and i get upset. I start to blame myself for things that i know aren t my fault and i cry endlessly, i get moody and down. I ll take it out on other people and lately it s been getting worse. I feel like i can t do anything right, I m always worried and upset. Once i even wrote letters to my friends saying goodbye as if i was going to commit suicide. It s been betting worse over the past few months, is there something wrong with me?

Dear, It is necessary RO distinguish between depression and distress. Probably You get distressed and become moody often. That is it. Life little trifles are normal. It is more important not to lose heart over these. Learning to cope with life situation is critical, for which our mind is already tuned.Don't loose self-confidence and self-esteem over these happenings. You are doing well. Wish you a good future.

Hi. Thanks for your query and an elucidated history. Noted your history of pain in the upper abdomen and lower chest, so much severe that it made you breathe shallow and hard to talk. Lasted for 4 hours after brunch with grain toast with peanut butter with jam. Since the whole grains toast has gluten and the peanut butter may not be suitable causing you the problems, There may be gluten allergy or subacute intestinal obstruction causing all such problems, I would advise in such a condition the following:X-ray of the abdomen in standing position. UltrasonographyClinical evaluation and further investigations to have a proper diagnosis and treatment.

i am 15 weeks 6 days now, and i had my ultrasound just yesterday, and it says the presentation of the baby is in breech position and posterior placenta grade 0, lowest edge is at the level of internal OS... i havent consulted my ob yet but reading this i am so worried.. what does this mean? is my baby in danger? thanx
|
Hi, At this time the breech presentation doesn't matter as the baby is very small. As your placenta is at level of internal or, you have to take some precautions like don't work too much, take bed rest and if any bleeding happens visit your doctor immediately. Placenta in most cases will grow upwards, and it can be confirmed on an ultrasound after one or two months. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Is there any specific day of ovulation due to Fertyl-super intake Is there any specific day of ovulation due to Fertyl-super intake prescribed as I was diagnosed as PCOD and did not get pregnant for couple of months when tried. I have taken this tablet from day 3 to day 7 and I am now on day 8. Should I use OPK, if yes then from when and if I get +ve then when would be the best time for intercourse.
|
Hello, The ovulation induced by ferry occurs about 5 to 7 days after the course of tablets is completed .you are now on 8th day. So you can now use OPK. If you do not test every day from before you expect to be most fertile, you may miss the LH surge. Testing daily once you have started to test is the best strategy since your first positive OPK result probably means that you are about to ovulate and your last positive OPK, if you get more than one, may mean that you just ovulated. First morning urine is usually not the best for Oaks. Late morning or early afternoon is usually best ONCE YOU KNOW THE OVULATION, maintain sexual relationship during the period at least for 2 to 3 days, which will increase chance of pregnancy. Thanks for query. Take care

I have an injury to my left knee. I don t know how I did it, & it started almost a month ago. I ve see a surgeon who says the x-ray is fine. I have a MRI in 5 days. For now I m told I have a stress fracture. My knee is swollen, tender to touch, hurts to move, & to walk on. My question is: If the MRI shows nothing, what would be the diagnosis, & treatment for this? For now I m on crutches, taking over-the-counter pain medication & doing the RICE method. My mom is a RN & says the thinks I need surgery,even if it s aurthoscopic. ? Can someone help me to know what could be done for this? Thank you!
|
Hello, A normal MRI would indicate just mild inflammation. Anyway, with a swollen knee, I would not expect the MRI to result normal. If there is a fracture or ligament rupture, surgery with arthroscopy would be the best treatment option. In the meantime, I recommend taking ibuprofen for the pain, immobilization and using local cold packs. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

My 2 year old passed a very oily and loose but not watery stool after having whipped cream in the morning. She has been having just loose frequent stool since last two days. Is it worrisome? Could it just a small infection which should pass or I should give my doctor a call?
|
Thanks for asking on Chat Doctor. I have gone through the details. It could be due to an infection. Most commonly such infections are caused by a virus called rotavirus. Irrespective of the cause, treatment of the cause is unimportant unless associated with bloody stool. All you have to do is to maintain the salt and water balance of the body. Give her ORS, and it will take care of the same. The stool frequency will get controlled automatically in 2-4 days. Give her some zinc supplement like Zirconia syrup 5 ml twice daily for 5 days and that will help in controlling the diarrhea. You may also give her curd/yogurt as that contains beneficial bacteria Lactobacillus. Hope that answers your query. Feel free to revert in case of further queries if any.

hello. my name is heather. i am 17 years old. i think i am pregnant. i took a home pregnancy test yesterday and it was negative, but i have heard that the depo shot can cause a home test to be inaccurate. i started the shot in may of this year and at the end of july i was supposed to get it again but the health department told me i had to wait another week untill august 2nd. i had started bleeding a little bit before i was able to get my shot so i am thinking i might have concieved during that week. i do not have the money or time to go to a doctor s office and get a blood test or an ultrasound but i did talk to my step mother who has given birth to 7 children. according to her, i am pregnant. i told her all my symptoms (nausea, urinating more often, lower abdominal and back ache and cramping, the bloated, heavy feeling, my breasts are starting to feel heavier, cravings, libido levels have risen, etc..) and when she felt my stomach she said it feels like i am pregnant and said she feels something that feels exactly like an umbillical cord through my belly button. i truly think i am but would like an experts opinion. can you help me?
|
Hi Heather, If urine pregnancy test is negative it is very unlikely that you are pregnant. You can repeat the test after one week to confirm it is negative. It takes a few weeks for periods to be regular after the demo. A deposit is protective for almost 14 weeks and even return of fertility on discontinuation of the demo is delayed.Thus, it is very unlikely you are pregnant. In this early pregnancy the uterus is not felt through abdomen. And it is not possible for feel the umbilical cord through the belly button.

|
Degree understand your concerns went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Low in IQ is a developmental disorder. There are no effective treatment / therapy method to increase IQ. But as age progresses, IQ should come to normal. In your sisters case, from the description, I do not see that her IQ is below 70 to treat her as mentally retarded. In any case, get her IQ checked. Motivation is the key in success for every person. You should adopt motivation as a method. She may be poor in studies, but she should also have her own diverse abilities. Find those abilities and motivate her in that aspect. If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further. Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications. Good luck.

Hi, Me prate is a synthetic form of female hormone progesterone. It is found to be useful in the treatment of fibrotic breast disease as it reduces the pain and swelling before the periods.

hello i have a 2 week old baby who is hungry all the time, she is only 5lb 10oz and the midwife said she should be on about 55mils every 3 hours but she is taking 90mils every hour and a half she just screams when we try to to hold her feed times back, what can we do
|
DearWelcome to ChatDoctorWe understand your concerns went through your details. Don't confuse yourself about the infants hunger pangs. Midwifes opinion is general and general opinion depends mainly on their own experiences. In the first few days of postnatal life, the baby requires very little milk. However, as the baby grows, the capacity to consume milk increases from 1 oz. on the first postnatal day to up to 15-20 oz. daily by week 2 and 3. By the end of week 4, the baby can ingest and digest up to 25 oz. to 30 oz. of milk daily. One Oz is around 30 ml. In your children case, the child consumes around 90 ml every feeding. I don't say that is normal, but that is definitely not abnormal. Don't worry. Child asks for milk because it is hungry, and it has the capacity to digest it. I suggest you to consult your pediatrician for further confirmation. If you require more of my help in this aspect, please use this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR.

hi i am suffering from infertility can u suggest any good dr. in gurgaon . going for a treatment from past 2 n half years recenty went for ivf but did not get successful so plz can u help me what can be done next me n my husband both are normal all the reports are clear
|
Hi. With everything normal, even IVF should not have been suggested. A couple trying to conceive for more than a year in vain is considered to have fertility issues. But if all the tests (as you mentioned) are normal, maybe it is just a matter of luck. Do not worry and keep trying. Use ovulation kits to help find out when you are ovulating, once you get a positive or close to positive result, go about the baby dance for the next 2-3 days. Also, make sure you lie on your back after your partner has ejaculated inside you for at least 20 minutes or more. Write to me using our paid service, and we can have a more detailed discussion, I would love to help. Best wishes.

well quick question i had pneumonia back in november2013 and theres a concern i have now i took antibiotics s and got better but im simply not all there in the breathing department. lately ive been waking up with a raspy chest but goes away as day progresses also feel as tho if i had dust in my throat when i manage to get the plegm out its not all colorful its just clear. i get a tight chest feelings sometimes albuterol does help before exerting myself/ excersise.
|
Hello, Since, you are feeling better after albuterol (inhaled bronchodilator), possibility of bronchitis (inflammation of airways) is more likely for your symptoms. Bronchitis is common after lung infection (pneumonia). So, it is better to consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).PFT will not only diagnose bronchitis, but it will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment is based on severity only. You will mostly improve with inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or albuterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone). Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

|
Hello, I have studied your case and I think you need to see a neurologist or a spine surgeon. Such numbness is suggestive of nerve compression in the back or vitamin B 12 deficiencies. In such cases you need to take blood serum level of B 12 and MRI of the spine. It will tell use if there is disc herniating or not. If yes then it should be taken care of. I hope this answer will be useful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions. Thanks

HiI may suggest you to have your blood pressure monitored in lying posture at night and in the morning on rising and during daytime activity. Youmay have your own blood pressure measuring equipment (electronic) automatic reading type. The variations especially if at night is large, you may report to a physician your findings in the Old. Try measuring regularly for a week and make a record by noting time and date for the week chart. Best wishes

|
Hi actually it is difficult for a PRO patient to get pregnant without medical support. But what you can follow is you can try ovulation induction with medicine only. You can track the follicles' growth by doing ultrasound on 2nd day and 13th day if you don't want scan again and again. Then depending on size of follicles you can take one injection for rupture. If you want to avoid the injection also, you can wait for spontaneous rupture also. Just be in contact with your husband for every 2 to 3 days after your periods stop.

Corticosteroids decrease airway inflammation in acute asthma and prevents late-phase attacks, hence the prednisolone as you well know. 80Β mg is a big dose, but that depends on body weight and max would be 1Β mg/kg body weight, so take this after an antacid (such as pantoprazole or omeprazole) or after a full meal. That you are continuing to require nebulizers every 4 hours is NOT a good sign, and arterial blood gas tests may be required. So please get yourself seen by your doctor or go to the ER, saying no improvement. I hope an ECG, Chest X-Ray was done to ensure there was no other problem, a special tests such as V/Q scan may be required to exclude a lung clot if there is a significant risk (such as long travel before this acute asthma episode). Usually long-acting beta 2 agonists such as palmetto should be avoided at this stage until you improve. I hope that was useful. Best Wishes.

Hi welcome to Chat Doctor. I have gone through your question. You had wait for 13 years, with all reports and measures, but you didn't mentioned that your reports are normal or not? Although after such a long time I would advise going for GUI intrauterine insemination or IVF invited fertilization are better options after consulting a g gynecologist. Hope I answered your question. Would be happy to help you further. Take care.

Hi Doctor,My father is suffering from kidney failure. He has been suffering from diabetic for many years.Is there any means we can rescure him from complete kidney failure? I will appreciate for your guideline and suggestion. Kind regards, John Matau.Tel : +255754 710082Email: YYYY@YYYY Tanzania.
|
Hikidney failure is very common in diabetic patient if they have poorly controlled diabetes and in my opinion your father is suffering from diabetic nephropathy.it is very difficult to say anything with this much information, I would like to know your fathers age, his onset of symptoms and his current renal function tests. Once kidneys are damaged it is very difficult to get back complete renal function, what can be done IDs to prevent further renal damage by medication and once complete renal failure occurs then there is only renal replacement therapy in the form of dialysis or renal transplant.

I have diabetes, asthma, hypothyroid. My father had heart problems. I was having chest pressure that was not getting better with pain that I thought might be pleurisy. I went to the doctor and they gave me meloxicam which seems to have helped quite a bit. They sent me to a cardiologist just to make sure nothing was wrong with my heart since I am diabetic. I saw the cardiologist and from everything I told him he does not feel it is my heart. He wants me to have a echocardiogram and a stress echocardiogram to make sure everything is okay. Does this really need to be done at this point?
|
Hiwith diabetes, asthma, hypothyroidism, positive family history of heart problem & chest pressure symptoms it is better to get evaluated totally accordingly as suggested by your cardiologist.the slightest doubt in the ECG in your status is also an indication, especially being diabetic. You can go for an echocardiogram, thread mill test, or stress echocardiogram, if these are all uneventful, with no positive signs, then not to worry. Requirement of an angiogram will be decided by the cardiologist based on these tests. All the best take care

Hello yes last night I was feeling fine one minute, watching television and then I had sharp pains in my left side of my chest that went through to the left side of my back. I have been to the doctor this morning and he ran an ECG, which was all fine, and has advised that it sometimes can be muscular. Any other ideas. He has prescribed Nurofen and rest.

HiT hank you for asking ChatDoctorI have gone through your query. As you have ruled out cardiac problems your problem is most likely muscle cramp. In such case you can continue European. Take a hot bath. Take milk and milk products for getting adequate calcium. If you regularly getting it D level in blood should be checked and if low, should take vitamin D supplement also. Hope this may help you. Let me know if you have any further query.

Welcome to Chat Doctor There is increased skin sensitivity to pressure which causes the typical lesions. You will need to understand that this is aggravated by stress and pressure on skin. Avoid stress, do relaxation exercises, avoid wearing tight watch, clothing. Avoid sun exposure. Take cooler showers. Eat plenty of fresh fruits and green leafy vegetables. Chat Doctor. Exercise daily. You can use Cetirizine or other over the counter antihistamines for relief and prevention of attacks. It may be combined with Sanitizing which works better in treatment.

I have heavy pain in My upper left quadrant right beneath my ribs. When I stand up or walk it feels like I amCarrying a cannonball on my left side. It also is painful to the touch. I have had a colonoscopy, a ct scan, a gastrin testand a test for parasites. My doctor cannot find any cause for my pain. I have to take Imodium or I have diarrhea 24 /7.Do you have any clue as to what is wrong? They are suggesting I see a surgeon for exploratory surgery.
|
HIT hank for asking to ChatDoctorIn such cases when nothing's come out in investigation as long as the abdomen cavity is concern the next strategy would be exploration of abdomen in this the surgeon can see the pathology or try to find it out in different areas of viscera, but most of the time abnormality does not decked if it would have there then it might have been decked in Ct scan, If I would be your doctor then I would definitely suggest you for MRI scan this would give the same result as you will get after the exploration, it may not be anything danger just keep your steps level low and try Omeprazole with domperidom for six weeks will get good relief, have nice day.

I am 54 years old and very healthy. My dad is 75 and has emphysema and COPD. He has been on oxygen for about 4 years now but is getting much worse. I want to give him one of my lungs before he declines too much. Is this possible? Would a doctor do this at his age?
|
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Yes lung transplant is an option for terminal stages of COPD and emphysema. But you can not donate your lung to your father. You need to register your fathers name in lung transplant registry. There is waiting list, and they go according to that list only. So consult transplant specialist and discuss all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.

I had half my thyroid removed December 31, 2013, then they found out it was cancerous, so on January 21, 2014 I had the other half removed. I am taking generic synthroid. I am noticing my feet have a terrible odor, and are soaking wet when I take my shoes off after work, I cannot sleep an entire night long, and I get cramps in my toes that radiate to my feet, is this all normal, and what can I do about it?
|
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion you should get done repeat thyroid function test.1. TSH2. Free T33. Free T4. Possibility of hyperthyroidism is more. As your symptoms like sleeplessness, excessive sweating, cramps in leg etc. are seen due to high T4. So may be your syn thyroid dose is more than required and this excess hormone causes symptoms of hyperthyroidism. So better to consult your doctor and get done thyroid function tests and discuss all these.

Hello doctor,What does it mean when you have hurt your foot? It is not swollen but it hurts.
|
Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor forum. Normally, when the foot is twisted, it is likely to have a soft tissue injury like sprain of the ligaments. If you have flat foot then minor twisting can also lead to hairline fracture and sprain. Although both the conditions will cause swelling, in your case no swelling is present but throbbing is a sign of inflammation. So, start anti-inflammatory treatment like Diclofenac 50 mg or Ibuprofe twice a day. Get an X-ray done to look for a repeat fracture. Use ice packs. Tie bandage under guidance of an expert as correct positioning is essential and pain relief sprays for local application. Give the foot adequate rest.

BY THE WAY I HAVE A FLUX NOW AND MY PULSE IS AROUND 90 SOMETIMS 80 AT REST and when i stand up it s start beating fast. is that normal? is it coz of the flux? thank u doctor.
|
Hi there ~ I understand that your panic attacks are causing you a lot of distress, to the point where you are thinking about when the next one is going to happen. This is called anticipatory anxiety and may lead to precipitating another panic attack. I think that with all the anxiety that you have been having, having variations in your pulse rate is not uncommon. I recommend that you get an electrocardiogram done, and if there is anything suspicious a cardiology referral is in order. Furthermore, I hope you are using relaxation strategies to control your panic attacks. You should see a psychiatrist to have your panic attacks treated with medications and get appropriate therapy referral. I hope this helped. Take care.

Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor, Vomiting in your son seems to be very significant. Having gone through details would have given, it sounds to me like a surgical problem. One of the possibilities I can think of is hypertrophic pyloric stenosis which is a condition where one of the ends of stomach gets thickened and thus closes, so food doesn't pass down appropriately. If I were your pediatrician, I would refer you to a pediatric surgeon and get an ultrasound abdomen. I wish your son a good health. Take care.

Thank you for consulting in Chat Doctor. I understand your concern as mother too. I worked in Orphans house during 6Β years with such child Chat Doctor. Maybe you know nervous cells restore but slowly. I think he will study to walk again, but be patient. He needs medication help, constant physiotherapy, massage almost every day and of house exercises for improving blood circulation and innervation of muscles. He had epoxy and how many nervous cells died we don't know, but child has young organism, and you can receive good results. Now you just take care and love him, give him natural food, vitamins-B-complex with lysine is very good for him-5ml 2 times-1month give, 1 month -break, then again repeat. Discuss therapy with neurologist for improving of blood circulation in brain-ask about nootropes-pyracetam, calcium hopantenate or otherRecovery footage care would happy to review your child again after 2 weeks

I had what started out as neck stiffness, this was after a 8 hour shift wearing a bulletproof vest (very heavy) I thought I just strained something. Over time now my glands are very swollen all the way around the front under the chin. Worst of all now I cant swallow without intense pain.
|
It looks to me that you had neck muscles sprain. This can happen when your muscles has to work hard or sudden jerk at your neck. My suggestion to you is that first avoid any sudden movement of neck. Apply local heat either warm water bag, moist towel with warm water. You should also take muscle relaxant like moral or MySpace. Apart from this you can also apply local ointment such as Diclofenac gel. I hope York pain will be better in next two to three days avoid very cold temperature as it tends to prolong stiffness .take care.

I do have hpv but dont know what strain I have. Im so worried
|
Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have tonsillitis. You should take broad spectrum antibiotics like azithromycin or amoxiclav. If your condition remains persistent then you should go for examination. Tonsil cancer can be diagnosed by biopsy and treatment is surgical removal of tonsil followed by chemotherapy according to type and spread of cancer.However, at your age tonsil cancer is rare so don't worry much about that. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/ Chat Doctor. Thanks for using Chat Doctor.

Hello! Welcome on Chat Doctor! I am sorry to hear about your medical condition. This is a serious medical condition that can be caused by different causes: - viral infection- declination- an autoimmune reaction to an external agent, etc. So, further tests are needed to investigate for this reason, including lumbar puncture and different blood lab tests. High doses of steroids coupled with long time of physiotherapy may be helpful. Kind regards,

I am a 44 year old white female that has had pretty good health other than my BP. I have had high BP around 140/90 for the past two years and was put on a diuretic that helped get my BP down to about 126/80. I have had extremely bad headaches the past month and went into the ER because I was having trouble seeing. I was seeing spots and with the headache thought I might be having a stroke. At the ER my BP was 225/150 and the doctor took blood to check my kidneys and other tests. Tests came back negative and was put on a Beta Blocker which brought my BP down to around 169/106 with pulse at 89. I have noticed that I have been bruising easily lately and a little bit short on breath when walking a flight of stairs. At the end of the day my ankles are quite swollen.

Hello Welcome to Ask a Doctor service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Boarder line hypertension may not need any treatment, but it can be well managed with diet (Salt free diet, cut down calorie in diet) stress-free life, exercise, the most important is anxiety and depression it should not be there these are the great risk factor in hypertension, this can shoot up the blood pressure, presence of stress may cause hypertension.

Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. In my opinion, you should consult pulmonologist and rule out lung infection (pneumonia) and bronchitis. You're all symptoms are since 2 months, and you are not improving with standard Chat Doctor. 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 (pneumonia).PFT is must for the diagnosis of bronchitis. You may need bucolic, expectorant, antioxidant, inhaled bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS). Higher antibiotics are needed if you are having pneumonia. So don't worry, you will be alright. But first diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.

hello i am a 31 years old female . I have a breathing problem since i was young i headed to many doctors they said I dont have any major problem i only have fast heart beating. Now a days I am having a difficulty in breathing ,a severe pain in my chest as if it is closed and i am trying to open it through breathing and during this pain i feel like I am being swinging and that my heart is going up and down, without forgetting feeling of tiredness all the time and some tingling in my right arm(specifically in my hand and fingers)and a pain in the whole arm as i feel right now while I am writing this. And I dont know if this had to do with my problem but in three years ago I had a big round blue mark on my thigh and I didnt ask a doctor about it because I was convinced its due to my psychological state and the stress i was having at that time.

Hello, Since, you have been to many doctors, and they all said that everything is normal, no need to worry about major heart and lung diseases. Possibility of stress and anxiety related symptoms are more likely. So better to consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution. You may need anxiolytic Chat Doctor. Don't worry; you will be alright with all these. Avoid stress and tension, be relaxed and calm. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Welcome to Chat Doctor .1. Most possible cause could be brachial cleft cyst - which is from long time without pain.2. Then lymph nodal enlargement with any underlying medical conditions infections / inflammations.3. And last infective cause with collection, pain on touch and radiating pain - had recent fever (bacterial infection abscess / infective cystic collection)4. Get an ultrasound lesion / lump to find out the nature of the lump, its source and extensions.5. After that a course of antibiotics will help in infective causes, a small incision depending on the condition. Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health. Anything to ask ? Do not hesitate. Thank you.

Had a skin culture, showed no infection, but I am concerned that it is not healing. Have used neosporin, aired it out, and washed it 3-4 times a day with Dial antibacterial soap. Its not healing.

Thanks for posting you query to Chat Doctor. sometimes some winds take longer time to heal and there are so many causes for that .if your culture is not showing infection than there might be some other causes. I would like to suggest you some measure which will help in rapid healing :1.no need to clean it 4 times a day as frequent irritation interfere with healing .you need to give rest to your wound so that regeneration can be takes place. So I advise you to do cleaning with normal saline and HY Chat Doctor.

Hi Rosa, You don't need to panic. You are in the age of high chance for pregnancy. You are slightly overweight. Your weight should be Height in CMS - 100 I mean 5 ft= 152-100= 52 this is reason for PRO & difficulty in pregnancy. Try to reduce the fat around midsegment of body. No fasting. Have controlled diet regularly with low calories, no junk food. Regular exercise, especially for the waist, thighs & midsegment of body. Take your time. If you get pregnant with fat, chances of pregnancy complications are also high. Once you lose weight, your periods will also be regular with good flow (normal flow) & you may get pregnant even without medications. In Chat Doctor is hormone which causes your follicle to rupture & egg is pushed out. Usually 13-15 day of cycle follicle will be ripe to rupture, hence doc has given you that injection. Have faith in God, you will get pregnant when right time coverall the best Chat Doctor.

Respected doctor,My baby was born on 5th at the 36th week of pregnancy. Then he was admitted to NICU as signs of jaundice were seen and discharged on 8th. Then again on 11th, he was again admitted to NICU because of jaundice. Then on 12th (8th day) the doctor did a test of TSH, T3, and T4 (report is attached) where TSH was found 10.87 uIu/ml (report attached) and low T3. Thereafter, the doctor recommended a dosage of Eltroxin of 25 mcg for three years of life due to suspected hypothyroidism and advised us to repeat TSH level after three years and hence we have started giving the 25 mcg dosage to the baby since 12th. Meanwhile, we again tested for TSH, T3, and T4 (report is attached) on 28th. The TSH came out less than 0.05 ulu/ml. Kindly advise whether we stop the dosage of Eltroxin (25 mcg) or lower the dosage.

Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor forum. I suppose there is some miscommunication or misunderstanding. We never recommend a continuous dosage of Levothyroxine for three years without checking the levels periodically. So, what is usually done is that we repeat thyroid profile three monthly and adjust the dosage. However, the current scenario warrants stopping the ChatDoctor. Once the level falls within the normal range we keep on monitoring the levels. If they increase, we start Levothyroxine again and adjust the dosage three-monthly based on TSH levels. I hope it helps you. For more information consult an internal medicine physician online

Please can you tell me if mouth ulcers and pimples are a side effect of Giardia. I was diagnosed with Guiardia about 3 months ago. I was treated with Flagyl. 6 weeks ago I had a second outbreak, but milder. I now have white pimples inside my upper lip and ulcers in several places. My throat is also inflammed and there are a few spots on the back of my throat as well.

Hello dear, Thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. I read and understand your concern. I am Chat Doctor answering your concern. No, pimple is not caused by the Guardian at all. But mouth ulcer can be caused by it. Giardia stick to the intestine lumen and suck the nutrition particularly fat and vitamins related to it. So ulcer can occur because of nutritional deficiency. You should take the complete treatment for the Guardian. Otherwise, it will recur and cause infection again and again. It is transmitted by Eco oral route means either the food or water is contaminated with such parasite is consumed by you causing the infection to you. I advise you should maintain hygiene in the future otherwise contaminated food causes infection again. In order to combat such effect you should take multivitamin particularly the vitamin A and others. This will help to treat the ulcer. I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/ Chat Doctor. Thank you, ChatDoctorInfectious diseases specialist, ChatDoctor.

Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query your son have symptoms of high fever which could be due to viral infection. Need not worry.

Visit pediatrician once and get it examined. You should go for blood tests as well and start treatment after proper examination. You should give child proper rest. Avoid giving any outside food. Give curd in diet. Start giving oral rely

Hi, i suffer from breathlessness and a tight chest. My voice trail off at the end of a sentence during conversations. I pant after climbing up stairs. Sometimes, I have difficulty speaking as if Ive run some distance. I would really appreciate your suggestion. Regards,
|
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. You are having breathlessness on minimal exertion. This is common symptom in cardiac and Pulmonary diseases. So better to consult doctor and get done ECG, 2d echo to rule out cardiac diseases. If these are normal than get done chest x-ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test) to rule out Pulmonary causes. So, better to first diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.

hey, i just have a few symptoms im concerned about, im 22years old and have one child, first concern is i had been on the depo injection for 3years i stopped and last injection was in october last year (2012) it is now june (2013) and i havent been on any other contraceptive and i still havent had a period, but i have had white discharge since i havent been on it aswell. Second concern is my breast have been very tender and sore (i have taken pregnancy tests and all come back negative). on my areola i have got a pimple like lump its red and white discharge keeps coming out of it aswell. For about 2-3weeks my breasts had swollen up a cup size and were full and heavier but have now gone back down. Any answer to my concerns please?? Thanks.

Hi I am Chat Doctor of all you should know that prolonged use of oral contraceptives can alter the hormonal mechanisms and periods are controlled by hormones. If you are breastfeeding then periods can be delayed. Also have an ultrasound done to look into uterine status and get a blood pregnancy test. If all negative consult a gynecologist which can prescribe medicines to start periods, thanks. Breast tenderness is generally due to hormonal irregularities as well. Thanks

Doctor, Im suffering from ESRD from 1 year. The ESRD was caused due to NSAID. Right now my creatinine is 11. However all other parameters (calcium, phosphorus erc) are within range. I do not have blood pressure or diabetes. I have been advised dialysis. What are the risks with dialysis and what stage should I opt for kidney transplant
|
helloThanks for query. You have been diagnosed to have End Stage Renal Disease (ESD) with your serum creatinine being 11 which is very higChatDoctorpared to normal value of serum creatinine (1.2).ESD is a progressive disease and persistent high levels of creatinine will lead to hypertension and hepatomegaly failure. You should consult qualified Nephrologist for assessment and start Dialysis at frequent and regular intervals to keep your creatinine levels at acceptable minimum levels. There is no risk involved in dialysis and has to carry on regularly till you are prepared for Renal Transplant. With creatinine level of 11 you can opt for transplant now itself if matching donor is available. Chat Doctor.

Hi I suffer with asthma and recently my asthma became worse. After going to the doctor he prescribed me prednisone . I have been taking these for 2 weeks an have some side effects from them like heart palpitations an numbness an tingling in my left arm an sometimes my legs, I feel very twitchy an my hands tremble constantly to the point of not being able to hold a pen or knife an fork properly. My legs are shaky also. Is this normal whilst taking these tablets.
|
Hellowelcome to ChatDoctoras per the details u have given, u just had recover from the ACUTE SEVERE ASTHMA. So that's why your doctor has prescribed prednisone orally, normally these prednisone tablets doesn't give any side effects when you use them for short periods except some gastric irritation.what ever the symptoms you are telling probably due to usage of other antipasto meds known as BETA2 AGONIST like albuterol, levosalbutamol, salmetorol. So I advise you to check whether you are using these pills???and one more thing is, you can now taper your prednisone tablets slowly and start using RETAILER WITH ROTATES. These toecaps are well tolerated and very safe for long term usage also.... hope u got the better information now...

Hi there I have a question about contraception.. Tonight I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend. I am on the combined contraceptive pill however i forgot to take it this morning. We used the pulling out method and i have taken my pill since. could i be pregnant? do i need to take the morning after pill?
|
Hello dairy understand your concern No need to take the morning after pill as you are on the combined contraceptive pill. Take missing pill on the next day with that day pill (two pills together). Just missing one pill does not affect the potency in preventing the pregnancy. And take the remaining pill regularly by putting the reminder in the mobile. Avoid stress, take healthy diet and do regular exercise. Hope this may help noncontact Chat Doctor for further health query Best regards

Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor. Thanks for your query. I understand that you have been going through a very difficult time recently. From the description of your problems, it is possible that you could be going through a depression. Now, there is effective treatment available to help you overcome your symptoms. Help can be in the form of anti-depressant medication or psychological therapy. So, I would advise you to see a psychiatrist in your place for a detailed evaluation and further treatment. If you cannot find a psychiatrist by yourself, then you can see your GP or family doctor and ask him to refer you to a psychiatrist. Wish you all the best.

I keep having recurring kidney infections . I went to my doctor this morning for one that started last night. I only have pain when I urinate and I ve had a constant pain in my right side for about 6 months. Now I am sick at my stomach and I can t eat or drink without having to run to the bathroom with very loose bowels. I m very tired of the constant pain and now its hard to work because of the other.
|
Dear madam/ sir, I can understand your despair. Pain during micturition is most commonly due to infection, but can also be due to other reasons. Can you tell me if the infections have been confirmed, by way of positive culture, each time you were diagnosed of urinary infection? Does urine routine exam have pus cells and blood in it? Have you had an ultrasound scan of your kidneys? What other medical problems do you have? Do you have history of kidney stones? I think you need to see a good physician/ nephrologist ASAP who can make a good assessment and treat you appropriately. Good luck

Our family has a history of porphyria. After reading the list of symtoms, sorry can t spell, many of my family members have them. My sister and her daughter do have the defective gene, HLAB27. Most doctors don t know what we are talking about. Our Aunt passed away from porphyria when she was a young woman. What do we need to do to determine what form of porphyria we each have if at all? Thank you for any help you can give.

Hello, Porphyria, heme related illness it is the problem with the heme production, production of heme taking place in liver and bone marrow which involves different enzymes and certain enzyme deficiency could cause the symptoms of porphyria, but some it could be due to gene mutation, two types of porphyria are there first is acute which involves the nervous system, and second cutaneous which involves the skin, not cure is there for disease, but lifestyle change, avoid triggering factor, counselling may help a lot, it all depends upon the types of porphyria patient have for to manage the disease, and to know the triggering factors, it is the inherited kind of disease, so genetic counseling is a must to prevent the disease in the next generation.

Good evening I am a police officer back in 2011 I had surgery on my meniscus, prior to having another MRI four weeks ago on the same knee, I have been sent to physical therapy three times. After reading the latest MRI, I am now back in physical therapy for 7 weeks. My doctor has informed me not to walk up stairs if possible and no running as well. As a police officer that is impossible. I m taking aleve per my doctors instructions but still have inflammation in the knee after walking, what would you suggest.
|
Hi, as you mentioned you had a meniscus injury and also undergone the surgery for the same. Well, i don't think you need any limitation of the activity as surgery was performed to get you close to normal functioning. Also, undergoing a proper rehabilitation of the knee - just like the soccer players. If they can play soccer post their ligament injury why not you have a normal functioning of your joint. Focus on not only the injured knee, but also the whole body conditioning. Strengthening the qua Chat Doctor. But extend your protocol to 12 weeks as by that time the knee is ready to fight back. Focus on strengthening the core, pelvic floor, upper limb, lower limb, spine muscles. Undergo the balance retraining using the balance board. Also, get the torque in the muscles of both the thigh-bone. Make the body lighter, so it can take the jumps and runs. Usually what I see patients they all can perform 99% of their physical activity like - jumping, running, climbing stairs, squatting and sprinting. Any further questions you can surely ask meRegardsJay In

I have a lump on my face after a severe infection from a self administered cashew nut shell extract which claimed to remove warts... However, i mistakenly injected it on an oil glands and not on a wart... It got infected and the dermatologist has injected steroid and used laser treatment every week for a month already. The pain and inflammation is gone but i can feel a lump underneath my affected skin.... The derma first diagnosed it might be granuloma while it was healing but now she was thinking nodular cyst and suggested that i should go to a plastic surgeon to have it removed. Is there other means to remove this cyst without surgery? Its notpainful and it doesnt seem to be growing but there is a discoloration on the surface of my skin that looks like a bruise. Could it be due to steroid injections? Is it sabaceous cyst? i dont want a surgery because it will leave a scar on my face. Ive been reading about possible kind of cyst i have but the closest i get is sabacous cyst.
|
Hi dear thanks for query on ChatDoctorYOU need to visit a surgeon /plastic surgeon. He will examine. If the diagnosis is doubtful he will get a FNAC of the swelling which will give the pathological diagnosis, which will help in the treatment. Earlier surgical procedure is better. Scar will be minimal. If it gets infected or the swelling increases and procedure delayed will result in a bigger scar. Thank you

Hi there I have been taking the combined contraceptive pill and two days before I was due to stop them for my pill free week I had the runs just after I had took the pill, I also had the runs half hour later and about three hours after that. I was worried so didnt have my pill free week and continued to take the next pack. I now am due for my pill free week in several days, I have noticed my boobs have been quite sore I have had sex regularly whilst I have been on the pill the last five weeks. Do u think I could be pregnant that the pill lost its effectiveness because of the runs?
|
Hi, Thanks for the query. Usually diarrhea won't affect the efficacy of the pills. But vomiting immediately after intake of pill can affect the efficacy. As you took two packs of pills without break, that may be the reason for delayed periods. If there is any history of missing the pill, there is possibility of pregnancy. So if you want, go for pregnancy test once. If the test comes negative, possibly you will get with Chat Doctor. If you do not get with

I went to the dentist and he noticed a nodule behind my right ear. He insisted that I get tested for TB. I did not think anything of it until I spent New years in the hospital with asthma like symptoms. I have asthma but its never been bad. What I have now are these bouts of coughing and when they occure my chest fills with mucus. This bout went on for a while and then I go back to normal. Before that it was at the end of the summer. Each time its a little worse and a little harder to breath. Let me know if you need more info.

sir i am 60 year old and i am having heel pain. i am also suffering from canal stenosis. Dr. have advised me Febuget 40. Should i take it. Today I took one tab. but I feel gastric and mild un easiness in chest which was all right later on .What should I do?.The level of my uric acid is 7.1.Is it high side? should i continue with Febuget 40? Kindly advise.
|
Dear patient. Febuget has Eurostat which is a medicine which blocks the activity of Antoine oxidase and prevents uric acid build up. Normal Uric acid levels are 2.4-6.0 mg/DL (female) and 3.4-7.0 mg/DL (male). Normal values will vary from laboratory to laboratory. Also, important to blood uric acid levels are purines. So your uric acid is on the higher side. This medication is contraindicated for acute gout and generally given for chronic and intergout periods.Your heal pain may be a due to worsening of stenosis due to high uric acid which will probably subside once you take the Chat Doctor. Nausea and gastric unease is common with this medication.Hence, I suggest that you continue to take this medication and if the pain is severe take ibuprofen 800Β mg stat. Also and I can't stress this enough please discuss the side effects of debut with your doctor and inform him/her about you taking ibuprofen
