Hello doctor, I have a 6-week-old baby. He is only breastfeeding, no formula. He had gas problems like any other baby, and the doctor prescribed us Simethicone for infants (0.5ml) three times a day to help relieve it. He eats and defecates normally (at least once a day, sometimes once every two days). Lately, he has begun crying hysterically and inconsolably. We thought of it to be colic, so we exercise his legs (bicycle kicks) and massage his stomach. But that only soothes him for a few minutes, and then he resumes crying. Today, I noticed that he was grunting. We offered him the breastmilk thinking he is hungry. But he latched on, then immediately threw his arms up, stiffened his back and let go. Then it seemed like he was grunting while trying to poop. I know babies cry. It is how they express their feelings. But when he cried, we could figure out what the reason was hunger, discomfort, wet diapers, etc. But now, we are dumbstruck. Please help. | 2,200 | Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I understand your concern. Usually at this age babies have gas or colic problems. It seems like that only. I need a few more questions to be answered. Does he regurgitates feeds also? Any relation of such episodes with feeding? Is it happening since birth (not these severe episodes but milder ones)? Have you checked the perianal area, is it red? Anything other than mother's milk like ghutti, etc? What are all medicines been tried for how many days? Do you burp the child after each feeds? Is there a lot of flatus that baby pass? Does he pass stools with force? How is the child between episode, active? | Q. My 6-week-old baby has gas problem where Simethicone did not work. Why? |
Hi, I had my IUD (Mirena) removed 2 months ago as I’m planning to start trying to conceive soon. I am 33, no prior pregnancies, and otherwise healthy. I have been taking an oral contraceptive pill since the IUD removal as I didn’t want to become pregnant immediately, but I am concerned now that both periods I have had while on the pill since the IUD removal have been extremely light. Both have only lasted one day, and only needed 2 tampons total. My periods were typical prior to the IUD, and stopped completely while the IUD was in for 3 years. Before that I was on an OCP so periods were regular, but I’ve been using hormonal contraception since I was a teenager so I’m not sure if my physiologic periods would be regular or not. I am a Pediatrician, so please feel free to use medical language. I am concerned that these very light periods indicate abnormal endometrial function or some other abnormality that may affect my fertility, and I’d be very grateful for any insight you have. Thanks, Roisin | 2,201 | Hello doc Welcome to icliniq i will explain you a little bit how estrogen progestin contraceptive and a levonogestrel DIU effect fertility : Combination of OCs suppress basal FSh and LH They diminish the ability of pituitary gland to synthesize gonadotropins when it is stimulated by hipothalamic GnRH.Ovarian follicles do not mature ,little estradiol is produced and there is no midcycle LH surge .Ovulation does not occur ,corpus luteum does not form and progesteron is not produced .This means that interferes ,and block negative and positive feedback of HHO axis . Also the IUD (Mirena ) which contains levonogestrel reduced the FSH ,there is less follicular activity ,less estradiol production and no LH surge also cause an local inflamatory rection inside the uterine cavity . The blocage of HHO is revesible ,as far as you interrup the coc pills,the estrogen and progesteron levels will fall (may be it will take a few months) ,so HHO axis will start to functionate normally ,and the cycle will be ovulatory again . So the change of the quantity of bleeding isn't so inportant ,if your cycle arw ovulatory . Only if you have amenorrhea more than 6 months after discontinuation of OCs pills shoyud undergo evaluation. So it' normal to experience change of menstrual cycle after IUD . I hope, I 've been helpful . Kinds regards | Q. My periods while on OCP since the IUD removal has been extremely light. Will it affect my fertility? |

Hi, Im a 20y/o female, with average health. I've always been afraid to ask about sex whether with my gyn or my doctors. I'm not always sexually active, but when i am with my partner, I don't feel anything vaginally during intercourse, during foreplay I feel some but not much. However, when masturbating I'm perfectly fine, and I feel amazing. I have some slight anxiety, and I've had Major Depressive Disorder in the past, but now I'm doing much better on Zoloft 50mg, with limited symptoms now. Im aware that my medication has proven to have negative effects on my sexual libido, but my real concern is why there is such a difference in my sexual experiences when with my partner versus myself. Thank you ! | 2,204 | Hello, Feeling satisfied in intercourse depends on a number of factors - Sexual desire (spontaneous sexual interest including sexual thoughts, erotic fantasies, and daydreams.etc.). Psychological issues. Relationship issues. Another important point is that during masturbation you are aware of the pleasure points in your body and can therefore attain maximum pleasure, while with a partner a lot of other factors are involved. Also, maybe you should consider using another drug instead of Zoloft 50? Sexual desire is typically more psychological and situational in women, influenced by how they feel about their bodies as well as the quality of relationship with their partner. I suggest you talk with your partner so that you can experiment with different techniques. Also to find what suits you and your partner best so that both of you can understand each other better sexually. (Many women do not experience desire until after they are genitally aroused, and arousal may require an extended period of foreplay) | Q. Why do I feel more aroused when I masturbate and not with my partner? |

Hello doctor, I have multiple small cysts in both ovaries (PCOS). Our family friend suggested me to consume Kalarchikai medicine, powdered mixed with pepper and honey to have it for one mandalam (48 days). I have completed nearly 44 days by consuming one small ball of the mixture every morning and before two weeks I got my periods. Then I had checked whether the cysts were dissolved by having an abdomen scan. But still, small multiple follicules have been seen in it with both ovaries enlarged. Kindly suggest me what I can do further. I got married before one and a half years and I am much worried about my pregnancy. I have gallstones as well. | 2,208 | Hello. I just read your query. See Kalarachi Kai choornam is helpful in amenorrhea. As far as small cysts are concerned they are unmatured eggs which failed to induce menstrual cycle previously, as a result, they got collected in the ovary and they will remain in the ovary. Now, you have got your periods you can start trying for conception. But I advise you to do it under the supervision of a nearby gynecologist because egg size is important while conception and that you can know by ovulation study. Ovulation study is performed under the supervision of a gynecologist. For gall stones, surgical intervention is required generally. Medicine is not of much help. | Q. Will Kalarchikai cure multiple ovarian cysts in PCOD? |

It is a common problem among children aged between 6months to 2 years. Baby is asking for the bottle because it pacifies him. So to put him to sleep follow these steps. 1. Wake him up at morning 7 AM. 2. Do not allow the baby to take more than two naps per day. Each nap should be less than two hours. 3. Avoid all screens and gadgets. Screen time should be less than half an hour. 4. Give him a warm bath at night before going to bed. 5. Rocking motion that is cradle helps to make baby sleep better. Put him in the cradle. 6. Usually, babies wake up at night due to short sleep. You can make routine by putting him to sleep without picking him up. You can give the bottle once or twice during nights. 7. Engage the baby in physical activities in the morning like making baby crawl or creep. 8. Light should be dim at night and you have to make him see early morning sunlight because it resets clock in the body. 9. First try all this. If it does not help then I will prescribe a hormone.

Hello doctor, I was diagnosed with fungal infection in hand fingers for more than six months. I was taking treatment with more than four different medicine for about a month long for each medicine but it was not cured. My physician said it was due to the winter season and also advised me to do not use detergent or any other cleaning products even if I maintained this and complete the treatment for a month after withdrawing the treatment with the doctor permission it would appear again. It was on the fingers near the nail and also between the fingers joints with water blisters it oozes out then dry and cracks. It hurts like burn some time especially when I use my finger to touch or peel onion or ginger or garlic it aggravates. Since it was lockdown I cannot go to the hospital and the doctor asked me to use the ointment until it looks normal then told me to stop using it. I followed him but after stopping it appear again but I do not know whether I could apply the same ointment which I used for treatment for two months because he said it will make the skin thinner. | 2,218 | Hello.

I had also gone to a doctor yesterday's night and he injected me & given tablets,,, At morning 4:00Am, i tried to open mouth but after a once try i was successfully open mouth for 2 tries. after that once the jaw locked till now | 2,227 | Hello, 1. Any previous history of dental treatments like fillings, tooth removal, root canal treatment? 2. Habits history? ( tobacco chewing, smoking..) 3. Any associated tooth pain? 4. Any recent fall injury? This lock jaw could be due to several factors like tensed jaw muscles, wisdom tooth issues, jaw joint issues or could be a condition called OSMF which is caused by a long term pan chewing habit. Initially this condition is treated with painkillers and muscle relaxants. Please continue using the tablets for the said number of days. This will take atleast a week to come back to normal state. However, a clinical examination is required to diagnose and treat it suitably. And do not open mouth forcefully because this can restrict the mouth opening still more and delay the recovery. Please continue the meds and report back to your doctor for review and practice the mouth opening exercises that your doctor had instructed. Good day! | Q. I am unable to open my mouth more than two fingers wide. What to do? |

First, you have to give yourself scrotal support (a langot /relatively small V shaped underwear) to support your testes from hanging. Second, start medication as in the prescription (see attachment). Are you a diabetic? Do you have any urinary complaints (night frequency, burning micturation, poor stream)? Any previous history of accident, trauma, urinary catheterization? Are you on any medications? Are you a smoker or alcoholic? If you can click a photo of both testis then it will be great. Last the ultrasound you uploaded has photos (attachment removed to protect patient identity), if you can upload a picture of the report then it will be better. | Q. I have mild pain in left testis with discomfort while walking and mild abdominal pain. Please help. |
Hi doctor, I am 28 years old. I have been suffering from breast pain for the last one year. The pain was only on the left side breast. Consulted with a surgeon, took a scan and found fat necrosis and lymphadenitis on the left side and was told it was cyclic pain and was given vitamin E tablet and Neurobion forte for three months and a review after three months. A few weeks later, I found a small swelling under my left armpit and there were three to four small red bumps in that arm as well. I usually get these rashes on the left arm. Is this a matter of concern? | 2,229 | Hello. Do not worry, I will give you the solution to your problem. Before that, I need some extra information from you. Whether you are married and have any child? I need your scan report also to see the exact condition. You can attach photographs of that here.

Hello doctor, I have a few medium-sized pimples on my penis. It was only one pimple a few days ago but now it has grown to four. I have started drinking garlic water after watching few suggestions on youtube. | 2,230 | Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. According to your description, there are multiple things that could present as such. It could be molluscum contagiosum, genital warts, or herpes. Sometimes even physiologic changes such as pearly penile papules can also present like this. If you are sexually active it could be an STD (sexually transmitted disease) as well. Kindly revert to me with photos and sexual history so as to aid in diagnosis and treatment. | Q. I have a few medium sized pimples on my penis for about a few days. What could it be? |
Hello doctor, Patient V is a 35-year-old woman. Many years ago, she suffered from increased perspiration during night, from the child. When 7-year-old this was continuous making several changes of clothes a day necessary. The situation was worse during physical or emotional stress. In addition, she had polydipsia but urine volumes were normal. She was underweight even though she had polyphagia and was with tiredness and asthenia. The latter was increased in recent years. She tried many treatment types but none successful and improvement in her condition was not seen. By the time the patient was 37 kg, 160 cm and was eating 3,000-3,500 calories per day. Her blood pressure was normal with 100 beats per minute. Her temperature was 36.8°C - 37.8°C but sometimes rose to as high as 38.4°C. No thyroid toxicity or thyroid gland enlargement was present. Normal blood tests, except for an elevated 24-hour urine creatinine but it was noted that her basal metabolic rate varied between 140 and 210 percent above normal. Specimens of muscle tissue were taken under local anesthesia from the patient. The latter showed that respiration could proceed at a nearly maximal rate in the absence of ADP. When ADP was supplied in excess, phosphorylation to produce ATP proceeded as normal. I have to diagnose this patient, but I am in a dilemma because I think that from the details I have for her as mentioned above, the biochemical pathway that is likely to be dysfunctional is glycolysis or glucose. I am more towards the thought that she has a dysfunctional glycolysis pathway. Am I right for this or not what do you think? Also, can you please suggest me what might be the underlying cause for the symptoms of hypermetabolism seen at her and what can be an evolutionary advantage for her? | 2,231 | Hi. I have gone through your case details. I am with your thought process of diagnosis. Let us try symptom analysis and the clinical syndrome that patient v has. The major symptom is hyperhidrosis that is increase sweating. This can be due to primary hyperhidrosis or secondary hyperhidrosis. This is less likely primary hyperhidrosis. Generalized sweating is mostly due to an underlying systemic illness or as a side effect of medication while focal sweating is generally due to a neurologic disorder or primary hyperhidrosis. In this case, it is generalized sweating, we need to find out are there signs and symptoms of: • Infection (acute or chronic). • Neoplasia. • Metabolic/endocrine disease (diabetes, thyroid, pheochromocytoma, carcinoid). • High catecholamine state (respiratory failure, heart disease, pain, drug/ETOH withdrawal). • Drug therapy (Propranolol, antidepressants, Pilocarpine, Physostigmine). • Neurologic disease (dysautonomia, diencephalic epilepsy, hypothalamic lesion, structural brain abnormality). In your case, it has a high metabolic rate with the childhood-onset disease process. So metabolic, endocrine, and high catabolic state is likely diagnosis. In the metabolic, it is more mitochondrial metabolic disorder likely diagnosis. The mitochondrial damage results in defects in the electron transport chain can affect any tissue. Tissues requiring the highest levels of energy production are the most severely affected. Certain “red flags” which should immediately increase the suspicion of a mitochondrial disorder. These include short stature, neurosensory hearing loss, progressive external ophthalmoplegia, axonal neuropathy, diabetes mellitus, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and renal tubular acidosis. Hope this insight will help you. Primary hyperhidrosis. Secondary hyperhidrosis, Metabolic myopathy. Mitochondrial disorder electron chain transfer. Morvan syndrome (autoimmune). Serum lactate. Muscle biopsy for metabolic myopathy. Mitochondrial disorder. Genetic analysis. Mitochondrial disorder. As per diagnosis antioxidants, vitamin E, and Riboflavin. Avoid excessive exercise to keep hydrated. | Q. What is the possible diagnosis of increased perspiration which gets worse with stress? |
Hello doctor, My daughter went ice skating last month and she fell a few times but she was able to stand up and skate again. The next day, saw bruises on her legs especially the knee area but that disappeared after a few days. She mentioned that she still feels some pain but she can walk, move around and jump with it so I thought it is fine. However, recently, I noticed that she cannot stretch it to its maximum. Although she can move around with it, she says there is still a pain when she stretches it too much. What do you think is the problem? It is not broken, right? We cannot have it x-rayed due to lockdown. | 2,232 | Hello. If she is able to walk putting her full weight, she might not have a major fracture. But I want to ask you a few more questions to come to a conclusion. Is there any swelling around the knee now? Is there any history of massaging it every time she fell? Is she able to straighten out her knee completely now? Probable causes here can be some joint fluid in her knee which is causing an inability to stretch completely. If she is limping now also, if she is complaining of pain with every step, we should think of any ligament injury. Or else if she does not have any pain on walking, do not worry she does not have any fracture. | Q. After a fall, my daughter has got knee injury with difficulty in stretching. Can this be fracture? |
Hi doctor, I am a 30-year-old woman. I was diagnosed with PCOS last year and according to the doctor's prescription, I have been taking contraceptive pills since then. Now I and my partner want to have a baby for which I stopped taking the pills last month and we had unprotected sex during my ovulation time. For this month I was supposed to get my periods on 6th but until now I have not got my periods and today is 12th. I also did the pregnancy check which came as negative. Now I am not sure whether to take contraceptives to have periods or to wait until sometime. | 2,233 | Hello. I recommend to wait some more days because there are false negative result from a urinary pregnancy test. Or you can exclude a pregnancy with a b-HCG (beta-human chorionic gonadotropin) blood test. | Q. I missed my period with negative pregnancy test. Shall I continue my OCP? |

Hello doctor, I have multiple small cysts in both ovaries (PCOS). Our family friend suggested me to consume Kalarchikai medicine, powdered mixed with pepper and honey to have it for one mandalam (48 days). I have completed nearly 44 days by consuming one small ball of the mixture every morning and before two weeks I got my periods. Then I had checked whether the cysts were dissolved by having an abdomen scan. But still, small multiple follicules have been seen in it with both ovaries enlarged. Kindly suggest me what I can do further. I got married before one and a half years and I am much worried about my pregnancy. I have gallstones as well. | 2,238 | Hello. I just read your query. See Kalarachi Kai choornam is helpful in amenorrhea. As far as small cysts are concerned they are unmatured eggs which failed to induce menstrual cycle previously, as a result, they got collected in the ovary and they will remain in the ovary. Now, you have got your periods you can start trying for conception. But I advise you to do it under the supervision of a nearby gynecologist because egg size is important while conception and that you can know by ovulation study. Ovulation study is performed under the supervision of a gynecologist. For gall stones, surgical intervention is required generally. Medicine is not of much help. | Q. Will Kalarchikai cure multiple ovarian cysts in PCOD? |

Hello docor, My father is a CHF patient, he always had normal kidney function levels but suddenly in one month, it got increased. Also, recently he was having 100 pus cells in the urine test. He was having burning too. But until last month it was fine and suddenly these numbers. He was admitted for shortness of breath for edema before two months, when he got admitted also the numbers were perfect now suddenly everything increased creatinine, bun uric acid, etc. What could be the problem? They are saying it is because of CHF but suddenly how it gets increased in a few days? | 2,240 | Hello. Patient with CHF (congestive heart failure) has a baseline tendency for renal dysfunction. Also, the diuretics like Lasix which is on cause renal derangements which are usually reversible. Now in his case, the cause appears to be multifactorial. Over and above the baseline tendency, it is probably a urine infection which has initiated this and his infection was severe. Urine infection alone can cause renal dysfunction and probably it is a precipitating factor. Any infection can worsen CHF, which subsequently needs elevation in dose of diuretics and all of these can cause renal dysfunction. So, it is multifactorial and contribution from all three factors. But good thing is, usually this dysfunction is reversible and settles with time. I hope his urine infection was adequately treated and subsequent urine tests were clear. I hope this helps. | Q. My father has CHF with sudden increase in creatinine and uric acid. What could be the problem? |

We are in big Confusion now. Can you help us on this. What shall we do.. | 2,244 | Hello, Based on the description you mentioned , it appears your wife has missed miscarriage. I am really sorry to say that in such case, the fetus fails to grow, as the fetal heartbeat has stopped. Even if you do not take Medications to abort it , it will eventually be removed by the body (as in it will abort itself in due course of time). It upto you, to wait for it to happen on its owns, or you can consider going for the medications for the abortion as advised by your gynaec. In case you wanna wait for it to happen spontaneously, it is advisable to get weekly blood tests monitored as advised below and you can wait for maximum 2-3 weeks for it to expel spontaneously or else it would be better to go for evacuation from your Gynaec. Hope I was able to solve your query. - Blood group & Rh antigen testing. - Complete hemogram with platelets & Coagulation profile weekly once if waiting for spontaneous expulsion. - Condition & Options explained. | Q. As there was no heartbeat in the 9th week, the doctor asked us to abort. What to do? |
My teenage daughter has struggled with bad breath for at least two years. She has impeccable teeth cleaning habits and visitors dentist every 6 months. I can’t help but believe It has something to do with sinuses or perhaps tonsils. Any ideas/thoughts on this? This causes her to be very self conscience. Thank you for any help/advice you can offer. | 2,245 | Hi, How are you. Sorry to hear about your daughter. Teenager has a problem of not having good oral hygiene. I will give some tips and hopefully it will be reduced. Buy an electric toothbrush if you dont have one. The good thing is the all electric brush has a timer in it. When you start it with pushing the button it will stop after 2 minutes so dont turn it off before that and if possible continue for a little bit more. Start from one side of mouth by placing it at the junction of gums line and tooth and keep the head of brush there for at least 4-5 seconds, do not move the brush in scrubbing motion nack and forth. After 5 seconds move to next adjacent area and keep it there again for 5 seconds. In this do the complete mouth, the outter surface of teeth, inner surfaces and the biting surfaces. Use of floss is very important, at least once a day all the teeth. Buy listerine zero mouth wash 15ml for 30 secs at least. Use 30 mins after brushing and not right away. Chew xylitol gum. If you have any other question please feel free to contact. Thanks | Q. My daughter has bad breath despite impeccable teeth cleaning habits. Why? |
Hello doctor, I have a cough for almost eight days. My cough was not frequent and I have no fever till now. I feel like something is in my throat sometimes. Can it be a COVID-19? I take Azithromycin 500 mg once a day after meal and Rhinokast F before sleep. | 2,246 | Hello. Do you have any recent travel to countries or areas with COVID-19? How about any recent exposure to someone who is positive with COVID-19? If your answer to these questions is none, then it is least likely for you to have COVID-19. COVID-19 initial symptoms would include cough accompanied by fever. On top of that most patients would also experience difficulty breathing. Since you mentioned you did not have a fever, it is least likely you have COVID-19 at this point. However, if symptoms, persist, worsen or new onset of symptoms such as difficulty breathing, and fever further consult is advised. | Q. I have a cough for about 8 days with no fever. Can this be COVID-19? |
Hi doctor, I have major sleeping problems where I do not get sleep at night sometimes until late or sometimes at all. I also have a lot of mood swings where I am really happy at times and the next second my mood switches. I feel very confused about my behavior and in general, I do not like interacting or making conversations with people. So I get really conscious and think about scenarios about how to say what. I keep worrying a lot about different things and have difficulty focusing on things and especially because of irregular sleep I am having problems. I get scared of sleeping at times and have nightmares at times when I do. | 2,247 | Hi. I am so sorry to hear about your situation, I can imagine how hard it must be for you. With the little information that I have, I think your sleep issues are just an external expression of underlying anxiety. It is the fear that is keeping you awake so to help you with your sleep issues. First, we need to take a few measures to help you in increasing your relaxation levels which would calm you down. For that, you can try why deep breathing exercises like box breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, meditation before sleep. You have to maintain your sleep hygiene which essentially means regulating your bedtime and your process of going to sleep which in common language is called night rituals. Once you have established this then you need to work on your anxiety. As you have also mentioned that you were sent for anger management 10 years ago, I would suggest starting psychotherapy as soon as possible which will help you understand the negative thoughts which are causing all these mood symptoms. Taking care of anxiety and anger is one thing, then the next step is finding the root cause of it and getting rid of it will help you solve the issue permanently. So I would suggest you to start psychotherapy. You can find a local counselor or we can start therapy online via video consultations. I hope this helps. | Q. I have major sleeping problem with mood swing and behavior change. Please help. |
Hello doctor, I am a 28-year-old male. I am having mucus collected in my throat region for almost two weeks now. As long as I remember, maybe from 10 years or so, I have been suffering from this condition which some have called bronchitis, dust allergy, etc. Any change in weather, any perception of dust, any smoke and fragrance from vehicles, agarbattis, powders or scents, exposure to cold and cold items cause this secretion of mucus in my throat area. It usually is just a mucus collection in my throat for days together. Usually, no cough or fever or throat pain or running nose. The collection is more in the morning after I wake up from sleep. The condition is more prevalent in cold weather. I was outside of my home town for a few years but did not face this issue as much as I do it when I am visiting my home town. I want a permanent solution for this. I have not undergone any major tests or anything for this problem. It is more like visiting a local doctor when symptoms occur and take medicines for infection. I am taking Montek FX (Fexofenadine and Montelukast) and Flomist nasal spray from 10 days. While the condition has improved, I am still not back to the normal and I still can feel the mucus is sitting in my throat region. Kindly help. | 2,248 | Hello. After going through your query, it seems you are suffering from allergic bronchitis. Usually, this condition is precipitated only if you are exposed to the particular allergens called triggers. Also, environmental pollution makes the situation more worse. As you said, it is very obvious that symptoms recur in your home town but never appeared in other places where you stayed. So it is very important to find out the particular trigger in our surroundings and avoid outside pollution as much as possible. To rule out any other pathology and possibility of asthma, it is advisable to do a chest x-ray and spirometry test. If the reports suggest the possibility of asthma then there is a need to start an anti-inflammatory inhaler called controllers. Expectorants work magically in any kind of bronchitis and help in expelling the thick mucus out. Allergen avoidance remains the main priority. You can continue tablet Montek-Fx and Flomist nasal spray. Rest of the medicines as follows. Environmental pollution and allergic triggers. Chest x-ray, spirometry test. Asthma. Allergy. Tablet Loxof 500 mg (Levofloxacin) daily once for five days, TusQ-X 10 ml 1-1-1 for seven days. Continue Montek-Fx and Flomist nasal spray. Avoid environmental pollution and known allergic triggers. | Q. I get mucus in throat with bronchitis which aggravates during cold season. Why? |
For about a year now, I have experienced a lot of thick white mucous in the back of my throat. This inhibits swallowing, forcing me to hack it up and spit it out. I think this can make my voice scratchy but other than that I am not experiencing any other symptoms. I have gone to an ENT previously and I believe i tried a proton pump inhibitor but it did not have an effect. | 2,249 | Hello . Good to hear from you. I understand your situation. There are two reasons for your complaint mostly. One as the doctor who has seen you previously suggest must be because of a reflux from your stomach. Second might be because of something called as a post nasal drip. For dealing with the reflux, just a ppi would not help. You should make certain life style changes such as: 1. Avoid spicy food. 2. Eat on time. Your stomach should not be empty for for than 2 hours. 3. Do not sleep soon after you eat. Give atleast 2-3 hours of time between your meal and sleep. 4. Try to keep your head end elevated by a couple of inches while sleeping. Now regarding your post nasal drip, do have frequent episodes of cold/nasal discharge..? If yes take the necessary medications for it. So I would suggest you with the following medication: 1. Continue your ppi( like pantaprazole 40 mg once daily before breakfast). 2. If u have a cold, take an antibiotic( like amoxicillin 500mg twice daily for 3 days), an anti histamine( like levicetrizine 5mg once daily before sleep), a nasal decongestant( like oxymethazoline thrice daily in both nostrils). Reflux X Ray PNS , Direct laryngoscopy Acute rhino sinusitis GERD Medical, life style changes Follow up in one week after the life style changes n medication suggested. | Q. A lot of thick white mucus at the back of my throat inhibits swallowing. What is the cause? |

Hello doctor, I have a large, red, painful cyst-like bump on the left side of the clitoris. It hurts to walk, sit or stand. I have been doing a warm compress three a day and a hot shower once. It seems to be getting more painful. I cannot go to the doctor because of COVID-19. Please suggest. | 2,256 | Hi. From your history and pictures (attachment removed to protect patient identity), I gather that it is vulvitis, which has got localized to a single point. Usually, infection starts in the vagina and later it gets localized. It forms a blister and over time it forms a pustular lesion (pus as in your picture). Steps to solve this: 1. Avoid tight undergarments. No undergarments at night, so the area will be dry. 2. Abstinence until the infection resolves. 3. Have a course of antibiotics which will reduce infections and pain. Take tablet Azithromycin 500 mg two tablets after food, Fluconazole 150 mg after food, capsule Amoxicillin and Clavulanic acid 625 mg twice daily for five days. Use pain killers with Serratiopeptidase. 4. Use vaginal wash, douches, and avoid any vaginal discharge soiling the area. Do not use any local antibiotic ointments, this will form antibioma. To reduce the local edema and pain, you can apply little Glycerine and Magnesium sulfate ointment over the painful area. Then place a small gauze over it. This will immediately reduce the pain. Apply twice daily for three to five days. | Q. I have a large painful cyst-like bump on the clitoris and it hurts. Please suggest solution. |
Hello doctor, I am experiencing severe pain in the first molar teeth. I did the filling one year back. I had three Combiflams to reduce the pain. Please advise. | 2,257 | Hello. As per your description, it seems that there is a reinfection in your treated tooth. Do you see any discoloration over that tooth?

Hello doctor, I am 32 years old. We are planning to extend our family whenever I will be perfect in health so that there should not be any health issues to the baby and the mother. I would like to elaborate on my health condition so that you can advise us on how to improve my health condition. Please note that the below tests have conducted before three months and after that, I have gone through some medication for one and a half months. 1.

Boobs itching and enlargement of area around nipples: for the past four to five years, I have been observed that area around my nipples has enlarged, and that area is really very dry and itchy. Although, there are no lumps in the breast and armpit. I visited a gynecologist but they told that it is a dermatology issue. Hence, I also visited a dermatologist and the doctor suggests that it is just because my skin is extremely dry and it can be cured after applying good moisturizer in the long run. But I have not seen any improvement till date. I really want to be healthy and want to get rid of the above issues before conceiving the baby. | 2,259 | Hi. First thing, I would like to tell you that you are a healthy individual. Even though you were anemic before, now you have made good progress in your hemoglobin.

Tablet Azithromycin 500 mg once a day for three days, Candid V6 pessery every night intra vaginal for six days, tablet Omeprazole 20 mg twice a day for three days. Avoid sexual intercourse until recovery from infection. Follow-up with the above said investigation after 3 days. | Q. I am trying to conceive with recurrent vaginal yeast infection. Please help. |
Hello doctor, I am 38 years old. I am having pain in the neck and it has gone to my left arms and there is stretching like pain. I have consulted an ortho doctor who asked to do MRI as initially post taking x-ray and doing physiotherapy for a week did not give relief. I took MRI and now due to Covid-19 OPD doctors not available. He asked to check with spine specialist what needs to be done. The pain is severe in the upper arms and it is from the last one week. I would like to share the MRI report for reference. Please suggest some medicines. I am diabetic too from the last three years. | 2,260 | Hello.

Hello doctor, I just want to consult about my skin condition that happens annually. Every year, my hands has this condition where it will itch and form rashes with liquid inside then skin itself. Most of the time, it starts on December then end on February, however it differs every year. This year it started on March and up to now. I experience this every year, as in yearly so I assumed it is normal. It is not hereditary, I assume, because none of my family members is experiencing it other than me. My mother told me that maybe it is because of cold weather which I agreed. It is there for the past 11 years. I have never consulted any professionals about it since it does not look severe. However, I am curious what is this condition called. | 2,261 | Hi. Seasonal itch and swelling over the exterior parts of the palms, soles ear, nose occur due to a type of cold allergy called perniosis orchilblains. Lesions for increased itchy sweling occurs mainly during the start of cold weather and end of the cold weather when there is temperature change in the environment. I am not sure which part you are living in as you have not mention. Treatment for this is avoidance of cold exposure, wearing warm clothes. Calcium dobesilate gel twice daily. Diltiazem 30 mg tablet BD for 2 weeks during the lesions. For itching you use Loratadine10 mg once daily for two weeks or whenever there is itching. Apply aloevera moisturizing cream over the hands multiple times with rubbing of the hands and feet and the parts so that good circulation bring warm blood flows into those area. | Q. I have itching and rashes in hands during specific climate. Please help. |
Hi doctor, I have had this issue for two to three months now and my symptoms are changing. It started with my throat feeling like it was closing every now and again and between my ears and jaw was sore for weeks. My tongue feels swollen and irritated all the time with little red dots around the edges. My tongue also gets sore around the edges mostly in the morning. I have had blood test and after that one doctor told me it was in my head but my recent GP says it is definitely not. I cannot get to see a specialist due to this Covid-19 mess and my symptoms are worsening and now my throat around my glandular area is sore and throat feels restricted and swollen. I do not have trouble swallowing food or drink but just swallowing saliva sometimes gives a choking feeling. No one so far can tell me what is going on. Please help. I am currently on Pantoprazole 20 mg and Advil. | 2,262 | Hello. Having read through your symptoms I think, if any of doctors could not find any particular cause it might be what we call as burning mouth syndrome with globus sensation. It may be due to certain local conditions like ill fitting dentures, jagged sharp or carious teeth. It may occur due to acid reflux or in disease like diabetes. Even post nasal drip due to sinusitis can cause burning in mouth.Prolonged intake of any medicine can cause this. However, do you have any of these? Of these gastric acid reflux is often the most important cause. Do you smoke? Can you attach a picture of your throat and tongue lesions. | Q. I feel choking with swelling and irritation in the tongue. Please help. |
Hello doctor, Is beta blood hCG test (quantitative) done post 12 days of missed periods considered as accurate? My hCG level came less than 2. Does it mean that I am not pregnant. | 2,263 | Hello. Based on the present hCG levels, it suggests that you are not pregnant at present (or today), as beta hCG level is quite low. But if you frequently have irregular periods and there had been history of sexual contact, (and if you had delayed ovulation then there may be chances of pregnancy, or in other words chances of beta hcg increasing in next few days , depending on the time of ovulation and sexual intercourse). And if your cycles have been previously regular, and if this is the first time it got delayed, then you need to evaluate for the causes of it. Please get back to me if you have further queries with the exact timeline of events and your suspicions based on the event. Meanwhile you can take medication for withdrawal periods as already 12 days have lapsed from your expected date, or you could wait for another 3-4 days, and if still not getting periods you can start taking it and evaluate yourself for the cause for delayed periods. Ultrasound abdomen and pelvis, complete hemogram, thyroid profile, serum prolactin level. Tablet Meprate or Deviry 10 mg twice daily for 5 days and then stop. (This medication is not harmful even in case you turn out to be pregnant later). To wait for withdrawal bleed within next 7-10 days. To get blood tests done on 2nd or 3rd day of periods. | Q. Will testing beta hCG after 12 days of missed period give accurate pregnancy results? |

Hello doctor, I have multiple small cysts in both ovaries (PCOS). Our family friend suggested me to consume Kalarchikai medicine, powdered mixed with pepper and honey to have it for one mandalam (48 days). I have completed nearly 44 days by consuming one small ball of the mixture every morning and before two weeks I got my periods. Then I had checked whether the cysts were dissolved by having an abdomen scan. But still, small multiple follicules have been seen in it with both ovaries enlarged. Kindly suggest me what I can do further. I got married before one and a half years and I am much worried about my pregnancy. I have gallstones as well. | 2,268 | Hello. I just read your query. See Kalarachi Kai choornam is helpful in amenorrhea. As far as small cysts are concerned they are unmatured eggs which failed to induce menstrual cycle previously, as a result, they got collected in the ovary and they will remain in the ovary. Now, you have got your periods you can start trying for conception. But I advise you to do it under the supervision of a nearby gynecologist because egg size is important while conception and that you can know by ovulation study. Ovulation study is performed under the supervision of a gynecologist. For gall stones, surgical intervention is required generally. Medicine is not of much help. | Q. Will Kalarchikai cure multiple ovarian cysts in PCOD? |
Hi doctor, During masturbation I just rub the tip of the penis and not the entire penis. Is it a wrong way of doing? I do not get excited during sex and unable to ejaculate.

Hello, I’ve been having symptoms for a long time now, about 6 years. Something constant that I feel is a “pressure” or imbalance on the upper left side of my body. I get brainfog frequently. Other symptoms come and go. Sometimes my upper rib feels tight when inhaling, sometimes I get dizzy and heart races/palpates. I’ve had some exams done recently and found out I have an inflamed supraspinatus tendon. Since that, Ive tried doing exercises and stretches but they haven't helped that much. I’ve even tried palpating the tendon but it doesnt even feel tender. Recently I’ve tried doing some neck stretches and the next day my upper left shoulder went almost completely numb. One thing I feel I have to mention is before these symptoms starting appearing, I had an incident at the gym where I pushed too hard doing an exercise and something happened that my vision went dark and I had constant pain on shoulder/neck area for a few weeks. I apologize for the wall of text but I’m at a standstill. Whatever this is, it’s keeping me from being able to function in everyday life. I’m currently a shell of my former self. | 2,270 | Hello, After going through the detail you provided, its clearly a symptom of jerk you felt at the gym while excercise. i advice you to stop doing any excercise related to shoulder or neck. take accelofenac paracetamol tablet twice a day fir 3 days and consult in person with any physiotherapist near you. you need personal attention and proper treatment. a physiotherapist will guide you during this time on how to perform excercise properly during pain and if needed he will apply IFT and ULTRASOUND to reduce pain and for relaxing muscles. stay safe. thank you. | Q. After doing some neck stretches, my left shoulder went completely numb. Why? |

Query regarding chronic cough almost dry not completely dry from last 5 days. Gets more persistent during sleep. No fever whatsoever. Took 1 tab of citrizine on day one thinking its allergic since no fever or stuffy/running nose. So ruled out allergy since then. No medication taken, just some otc antacid "digene". Mild heartburn. Twice at night coughing was so strong that I puked. Looks like GERD to me. Non smoker. Male. 25 years old. No history of any other illness. Height 167cm Weight 64 kg | 2,272 | Dear, Welcome to Icliniq. Thank you for providing a detailed history. I just want to clear one thing what do you mean by CHRONIC cough? The history you provided is of just five days so it is not chronic but you used word CHRONIC which means cough for months or years. So if it is just five days of cough then yes it is suggestive of some reflux episode which is leading to laryngeal irritation followed by cough and occasionally can lead to choking like sensation in sleep. I will like you to start the following medications and it will help out. 1. Cap.Deslansoprazole 30mg 1 cap twice daily before breakfast and before dinner for 2 weeks. 2. Syp. Rondec ( Dextromethorphan) 10ml three times daily for 10 Days. You need to avoid late time eating. Three should be a gap of at least 2 hours between dinner and going to bed. Avoid Smoking. Avoid Evening Coffee or tea. Thank you. Incase of any further query get back to me. | Q. I have a chronic dry cough and mild heartburn from the last five days. Please help. |
Hello doctor, I cannot concentrate because when I study I feel I am not able to memorize. I want any medication maybe for 1 month for concentration. My doctor gave me Bupropion but it is no good for me. | 2,273 | Hello. From your query, I can understand that you are having difficulties related to poor concentration. There can be different reasons for struggling with poor concentration. More information will be needed to clarify the etiology behind poor concentration so that you can be guided about getting appropriate medication and treatment. How long have you been experiencing concentration difficulties? Was it present when you were a child and did you have problems with studying whilst at school? Or did the concentration problem start in recent months or years? Are you experiencing any other difficulties? Are you sleeping well? Are you eating normally? Are you using any alcohol or recreational drugs? If poor concentration has been a problem since early childhood, you need to be assessed for neurodevelopmental conditions like ADD/ADHD. Following a comprehensive assessment, if you fulfil criteria for ADD/ADHD, stimulant medication can be considered to improve concentration and inattention difficulties. Stressful situations and conditions like depression, anxiety can also cause poor concentration. I see that your doctor has prescribed Bupropion which is a helpful antidepressant medication. Have you been having problems with low mood ? How long have you been taking Bupropion? If it is not effective despite taking for more than 6 weeks, discuss with your doctor about optimising the dose or alternative antidepressant needs to be considered. Also, physical health problems like low iron levels, low thyroid, etc can also cause concentration problems. So this needs to be ruled out as well. So, if you are able to provide further additional information regarding your symptoms we can guide you appropriately. | Q. How can concentration be improved? |

Hello doctor, My sister, a 15-year-old female patient complains of intermittent pain on R sublingual area and neck (submandibular area) graded 6/10 at rest and aggravated when eating to 8/10. Past medical history: She developed fever recently and was diagnosed with UTI and was given cough remedy. Persistence of cough prompted us to another MD consult and was diagnosed with pneumonia of the lower lobe. She was on antibiotics for 10 days. She started complaining of the pain on March 25. MD thought of tonsilitis and was asked to gargle warm water with salt. Up until now, there is still pain on the area. Grade 1 tenderness on the R submandublar triangle area, no fever, mild cough still, feeling of lump on the R sublingual area, pain when tongue presses on the area. Patient complies with MD recommnedation of drinking a lot of water and gargling. | 2,275 | Hi. It is 23 days now since the infection started, that is quite a long time. Her chief complaint is pain in the submandibular and sublingual region which can happen due to tonsillitis as well as infection of the salivary gland which is located in that region. Typically these are both treated by Antibiotics. The best way to differentiate is take a look inside her mouth with a torch and see if there is reddness in the tonsils. However, the treatment you need is a proper course of antibiotics and pain killers with antiseptic gargles and chewable Vitamin C. Acute tonsillitis, acute sialadenitis. Tablet Amoxicillin and Clavulinic acid 625 mg twice daily after food for 7 days. | Q. What causes pain and swelling in sublingual and submandibular area? |
Hello doctor, I underwent a hair transplant before three months. I might not be sure but I may have roughly massaged my head or while wearing t-shirts a scab fells off, will this result in failed hair transplant? | 2,276 | Hi. Hair transplant failure or success is evident within four weeks. The follicles which have been implanted into our skin of the scalp would die initially within two weeks or they lead to the growth of the good hair. After that you massage it or do anything it will not have any effect on the hair transplant, because the hair follicle by that time would have established at that place as the original ones. So the effect of rubbing, friction or any disease will be the same whether transplanted or not. So I do not think you need to worry about that. But what you should worry is that there is not any other infection like fungus on this lesion which I can see on your head. If there is anything itch or burning and the lesion is expanding kindly tell me with a clear photograph of the skin of the forehead. Regarding hair transplant, it is successful you need not worry about it. I hope this helps. | Q. I had a scab fall off from hair transplanted site. Is this due to hair transplant failure? |
Hello doctor, I am 27 years old. I have sinus issues like night time colorless running nose for about one to two hours. I also have throat pain and sneezing. Problem increases if I have milk or cold food. | 2,277 | Hello. To start with if you have throat pain with fever and cough or weakness in the body, please consider going to a Coronavirus OPD to get tested. Considering the present times, it is possible. Now assuming that you do not have the above symptoms, it is very likely that you are suffering from allergic rhinitis which is worsening your sinus problem. It typically presents with bouts of sneezing, more at a specific time in the day and related to some material for eg: dust. Apart from dust, there are many other materials that can cause allergic rhinitis also. Patients also may not have itching in the eyes, itching in the nose, eye watering, headache, watery nasal discharge. Since your CT (computed tomography) scan is normal, we can start with treatment immediately. However, remember that allergic symptoms have a high likelihood of reappearing after treatment is complete, so u will have to follow up after 7-15 days. Take tablet Levorid D (Levocetirizine) every night half an hour before sleeping for seven days. Duonase nasal spray two puffs in the morning and night for 15 days and whenever you feel symptomatic thereafter. | Q. I have sinus problem with runny nose in the night. Please suggest. |

Hello doctor, For the last six weeks, I have a feeling like a lump inside my throat on my right side. No pain, no problem with swallowing. It also feels a little dry if that makes sense, and it is worse when I workout with open mouth breathing. I think my tonsil is bigger on that side although I do not think it is inflamed as it is not red. ( I have photos I can show you).

Let us see after a week and you can get an online consult with me to let us know the progress and change any medicine if necessary.

Our family friend suggested me to consume Kalarchikai medicine, powdered mixed with pepper and honey to have it for one mandalam (48 days). I have completed nearly 44 days by consuming one small ball of the mixture every morning and before two weeks I got my periods. Then I had checked whether the cysts were dissolved by having an abdomen scan. But still, small multiple follicules have been seen in it with both ovaries enlarged. Kindly suggest me what I can do further. I got married before one and a half years and I am much worried about my pregnancy. I have gallstones as well. | 2,283 | Hello. I just read your query. See Kalarachi Kai choornam is helpful in amenorrhea. As far as small cysts are concerned they are unmatured eggs which failed to induce menstrual cycle previously, as a result, they got collected in the ovary and they will remain in the ovary. Now, you have got your periods you can start trying for conception. But I advise you to do it under the supervision of a nearby gynecologist because egg size is important while conception and that you can know by ovulation study. Ovulation study is performed under the supervision of a gynecologist. For gall stones, surgical intervention is required generally. Medicine is not of much help. | Q.

Hi doctor, My daughter is 2 years 8 months old and she is stuttering a lot for the last four months. Initially, it used to come and go but in the last three weeks we are noticing it very constant and she is struggling a lot to speak. She never used to have this problem before and she is a very talkative person. We wanted to know if this is temporary or it will be permanent and do we need to go for any speech therapy now itself? | 2,286 | Hi. Being parents overprotective is a common phenomenon that is observed. Do not point out the mistake like you have pause, oh see you struggled, by this the little one will be more conscious and surely avoid talking. Better talk to her in a normal way. Follow these points. 1. Tell her to inhale then say two to three words then again inhale to say some more. 2. Finger tapping while saying, one word one tap. 3. Tell her to count backward (20,19,18, etc). 4. Tell her to stop where she is feeling problem without trying to say it with stress. Stop then relax again start saying. Most important: It is not stuttering, it is a part of developmental process called normal non-fluency. | Q. My 3-year-old daughter has stuttering problem. How to correct this? |

Hello doctor, I went to the dentist recently and they told me I have gum disease and receding gums but there is no damage to my teeth or bone so I just have to improve my brushing. Since then I have taken their advice but my gums still bleed, my whole mouth is sensitive and I have noticed my teeth feel slightly loose. It is currently impossible to get to a dentist so I am concerned. Please help. | 2,288 | Hi. Yes, I can make out from x-ray and picture (attachment removed to protect patient identity), it is gum disease for obvious. Your lower front teeth have grown gingival inflammation better called gingivitis. Gingivitis needs to be treated by a procedure called gingivectomy, means removal of excess gingiva. Home remedies as such there are not many or much effective in this case yet I can understand the situation cannot permit you to go out. For now only until the situation gets better try the following: 1. Warm water salt rinse three to four times daily. 2. If you can get some guava leaves crush them and mix with warm water use as mouth rinse for one to two minutes and spit out. 3. Crushed cloves act as good oral treatment in pain and gum diseases or if you can get clove oil that will be great to apply. 4. For loose tooth, you can apply a mixture of table salt and mustard oil where there is loose gums and then later spit it out. 5. Rest, keep brushing teeth twice daily. Kindly use soft bristle brush and do not brush very hardly or for very long. You need to brush softly for one to two minutes only. 6. Before brushing apply toothpaste all over teeth and at place teeth attaching to gums, leave it for two to three minutes then do the brushing. After brushing must give soft finger massage overall teeth and especially gums. 7. Brush in a circular manner and not in up and down motion. I hope this helps. I advise you for a complete deep scaling and root planning as soon as things get better in your area. | Q. I have gum disease with receding gums and bleeding. Please suggest. |
Hello doctor, I have always had a weak urine stream. I had medicines several times for bladder infections, never feel like I fully urinate. But lately, I have a bigger issue, I find myself not able to urinate sometimes, I recently realized if I ejaculate then it is worse. Two nights ago, after sex I went to urinate and not a drop, by morning I felt like I was gonna explode so I was headed to the ER when on the way it finally released. I decided to wait till I got home (I am a truck driver) to go see someone, probably tomorrow. I am currently able to urinate. I am a 36-year-old male, been going to the doctor all my life for bladder problems but this too much. Please help. | 2,289 | Hi. I have a few queries before jumping on to the conclusion. Have you ever been catheterized? Any history of trauma? smoker? Or any chronic illness (diabetes or hypertension)? Any record of RGU or MCUG or ultrasound is done before? Have you been on any medications for this improper urination other than antibiotics? How many times in the past year did you take antibiotics for a bladder infection? Where do you live? If you have that much recurrent infection why you never get investigated thoroughly until now? Any blood investigations or urine culture done in the past? During sex what happens is bladder neck contracts just before ejaculation so that one can ejaculate properly, but in your case, it does not relaxes due to which you feel retention like condition. Before prescribing your medication I want to know certain answers to the above questions which are very important. | Q. I get weak urine stream with incomplete urination. Please help. |
Hello doctor, If nasal bone is absent due to trisomy 21, will that fetus suffer from mental retardation? Can mental retardation or other such problems detected by ultrasound at 30 weeks? | 2,290 | Hi. Absent nasal bone is a soft tissue in ultrasound to diagnose Trisomy 21. Absent fetal nasal bone is one of the strongest soft markers in the second-trimester ultrasound screening. Detailed prenatal diagnosis is advisable to rule out abnormal karyotype when absent nasal bone is associated with other ultrasound markers of fetal aneuploidy or structural abnormality. Nearly two-thirds of 15-22-week-old fetuses with Down's syndrome lack a nasal bone according to fetal-medicine specialist. For normal fetuses, the figure is 1%. This makes it unlikely that the test would wrongly diagnose Down's syndrome. Mental retardation cannot be diagnosed in 30 weeks scan. But if only an absent nasal bone is there with no other structural abnormality and NIPT (noninvasive prenatal testing) or amniocentesis is normal then please understand that the risk of isolated NB absence compared with non-isolated NB absence is much lower. | Q. Does absence of nasal bone due to trisomy 21 suggest mental retardation in fetus? |

Hi doctor, This is regarding my mother, who is 67 years old and has a previous history of slightly high BP and sugar and she is taking medicines for both. The issue is that on Sunday she experienced a burning sensation while urinating and then the sensation was gone, but on Monday night she again felt the burning sensation while urinating. She also said that the urine was darker yellow and also a bit warmer than usual. She has not been taking too much water, and I have told her to drink more water and see tomorrow if the burning sensation returns when peeing. However, since she complained I thought of at least contacting a doctor on a preliminary basis. What could be causing this sensation and if it persists what steps to take? | 2,292 | Hello. Sorry to hear about your mother's problem. Most probably your mother is having a urinary tract infection (UTI) which is quite common at her age but still not normal. I recommend (as she is diabetic as well as hypertensive) to get investigated. The following test should be done. CBC (complete blood count). RFT (renal function test). Urine routine and culture. Ultrasound abdomen with PVRU and HbA1c. I am going to start her on empirical treatment (see prescription) for three days so that she gets herself investigated meanwhile and relieved of her symptoms. But if there is any obvious underlying cause of UTI (which will get clearer after all investigations) we may have to act further. She is overweight, try if she can shed some weight with exercise. UTI. UTI. Plenty of fluids. After three days. | Q. My diabetic mother has burning sensation while urinating with dark urine. What steps should we take? |
Hello doctor, My child is 6 years old. Since one month he is repeatedly urinating for more than 30 times a day. We consulted a doctor and he prescribed for an antibiotic but it is not working. He went through urine culture and ultrasound, everything was normal. Is there any way to come out of it? Please help. He is currently taking Ofloxacin oral suspension IP 50 mg/5ml and also lactulose solution USP 10 g/15 ml. | 2,293 | Hi. See, your child is suffering from urinary tract infection (UTI) as per the symptoms. Can you please describe the other symptoms in more detail like any history of fever or chills rigor/pain abdomen/pus or blood in the urine or any stool abnormality? Any history of burning urination or any history of local inflammation in the genital area? Any previous significant history? Any history of similar complaints in the past? How is the hygiene of the genital area? Also, birth history of child? Is there any other chronic illness in child? Along with the above history kindly upload urine culture and sensitivity reports along with all other investigations done along with the date of investigation. If not done then get one complete blood profile, urine culture sensitivity, blood pressure, serum urea, creatinine, and electrolytes and follow up with reports. Till then continue with same antibiotics and lots of fluid intake. Give more vegetables and maintain proper hygiene. See, maybe antibiotics are resistant for the infection that is why it might not be working. So we need to change the antibiotics as per the reports. So kindly attach the reports in the same follow up. | Q. My 6-year-old kid is urinating frequently for about 30 times a day. How to stop it? |
Hello doctor, I am 30 years old. I am a healthy individual with no signs of BP or heart issues. I have done a healthy heart screening where they checked heart plus blood flow in legs, lipid profile, liver function test, vitamin D and everything is normal. My morning erections frequency is fine, (not every morning I get it) sometimes during afternoon sleep. I have a phimosis issue. Recently last three attempts I had an issue with erections and unable to maintain it. I am worried and piling up stress. Another issue is ejaculation. I feel I have delayed ejaculation as I am not able to ejaculate. When I masturbate I can ejaculate in the normal interval, I am not able to understand if phimosis causing delayed ejaculation and ED issue? Apart from the last three instances, I had this issue for a few months and then it resolved, I got erections for the next 10-12 sexual instances. In addition, I do not have diabetes, I used to masturbate a lot by watching porn (kind of addicted) a few years ago then the frequency reduced as I became more mature. I am worried if this is the reason for ED? When I start sex all my attention goes to whether I am getting erections or not. I eat a healthy diet and do cardio three times a week. Please guide. | 2,294 | Hi. I have gone through your query and find that you are physically active and healthy. You have phimosis but that is not causing you much problem. For the last few occasions you have erection problems and delayed ejaculation, it can occur because of many issues including the stress or performance or time hurry. Once you had one episode of ED (erectile dysfunction) or delayed ejaculation it can cause you anxiety and that can lead to ED for the next sexual activity. If the issue is not affecting you regularly or at least 50 percent of your sexual activity then it is not required any medical treatment. Just continue your cardio workout and take healthy food and take adequate sleep. | Q. I am facing ED and delayed ejection. Can phimosis be the cause? |
