It could be due to cystic lesion from thyroid gland as well. Need not worry much. You ...

Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion you should not worry much about this report. In Calcified lesion on chest x-ray, possibility of malignancy is very, very less.

Hello, your father probably had minor sensory stroke in the last week. The white spots that you are describing on MRI may be indicator of reduced blood supply to those areas causing damage.

My daughter had a bloody nose and after cleaning her up she got light headed and fainted. While she fainted her body started shaking like she was having a seizure. I blew slowing on her face while this was happening and she was only out for less then a minute, but what causes the body to shake like ths?
Hello, Unfortunately for physicians \"shaking\" is a very vague term, and it could mean many kinds of movements, ranging from tremulousness of the body, to flailing, to arrhythmic shaking to rhythmic shaking and all have very different implications. However, I will give you the most common cause of what you saw. Most l...

Hello, thanks for the query. I admit that your concerns about the baby are indeed well-informed.

Similarly, though very low, but sertraline can also cause some problems in baby like pulmonary hypertension. Though dat...
I used lidocaine topically a number of years ago and my face swelled up, had to go to doctor to get a shot to reduce swelling. Went to the dentist today. Had to have two cavities filled without anesthetic. If I am allergic to lidocaine, are there alternatives to use?
Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query. If you are allergic to lidocaine, you can get the treatment done under other local anesthetic agents like bupivacaine or anticline. Most of the time people will be allergic to the preservative(methyl paraben) used in local anesthetic agent not the lidocaine. So you...

Hi I would say there are rating scales available which could be used to make a diagnosis of Asperger's disorder, but they are not mandatory in many parts of the world for making a diagnosis. It would be considered the best practice in the western or developed world to use the rating scale, but again an experienced clin...

Hi as per of your case history it suggests to me that, the big vein on inner side of the chin may also be a DILATED DUCT of the Salivary gland, or a Muscle, or it may be engorged and dilated lingual veins which are present on underside of the tongue. The first and second probability seems to have more chances, as it is...

Hello, Sharp shooting pain can be due to ligament instability. Take hot water fermentation and do knee exercises. You should be fine.
