Hello, As the pain is like throbbing in nature which is not allowing the knee to be any better I will advise to first take a hot water fermentation. Use the hot water bag wrapped in towel.  This will provide deep heating effect. Continue this along with the medicines you are taking. And also keep the pillow underneath the knee. If you aren't diabetic than please use icing for the lower back region.  This will provide the anesthetic effect and reduce the sensory functions by which the pain will come down.  As pain travels by the nerve, rather using a steroid shot it's better to use icing which is non-invasive and no side effects. Wait and see if the knee is any better.  If diabetic you can use hot water bag in the lower back which will slow down the sensory system by dilation effect. Once the pain comes down kindly try doing knee bending and extending. If that is possible you can possibly do some exercises like static Qua Chat Doctor.  Kindly do on both sides the exercises, so the strength is equivalent.  In case you are able to perform extension and flexion of the knee, I think it's a ligament injury, and we ended to take up the MRI to rule out this.  Rehabilitation of ligament injury will be followed with Physiotherapist. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Jay In

Hi. Thanks for your query. Read and understood the history about your Mother. She had undergone kidney transplant 3 years ago, has UTI that is not getting under control, the ultrasonography shows kidney is fine, but they found a fatty lump on the liver. From this report one thing is certain that there is no cancer or so, hence nothing much to worry about. Fatty lump on the liver needs no active treatment.-To confirm that this is benign, it is better to get Contrast enhanced CT scan or MRI and keep this under observation.-Get Liver function tests done, and if no need to worry if these are normal.


Hi, Thanks for query, As your pregnancy test shows negative result the chances of delayed period is much more. Due to hormonal imbalance you get this type of symptoms too.

If you do not bleed repeat pregnancy test. Thanks.

Hi dear Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor. By low blood count do they mean low Hemoglobin?! Enlarged liver can be caused by many reasons that cant be counted here, but mainly due to Hepatitis Infection (A, B,C or E), it can also be due to Alcoholic or non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, history of medication Chat Doctor.  People with liver disease develop some sort of thing known as portal hypertension which could lead to bleeding in the Gastrointestinal system mainly esophagus or stomach.  Based on your question it seems like the Doctors are still running some other tests to confirm, so please don't overthink and try to stop worrying, until the doctors give you a final diagnosis and treatment. Wish you all the best and hope your partner gets better soon.


Hellos per your description of the lump it seems to be a Neurofibroma. Need not worry, it's a benign condition, and it is mostly a cosmetic concern rather than pathological.

Definitive treatment for this is only surgical excision of the lump. Need not worry about this too, as it is only a day care minor surgical procedure. Thaank you.


Hello, If you are suffering from an acute bout of cervical pain that was not really there before recently (even though you do have the remote history of the accident) and you believe there is a lump of some sort above the collar bone then.

Hi there, low back pain is one of the most common complain in people who work for long hours especially the on lifting heavy stuff.

Hi there, I have understood your concern and I will suggest you the best possible treatment options. As you were on demo proverb injection and shifted on oral contraceptive pills, there must be no definite date of last menstrual period. As such if contraceptive pills were started well before the medicinal effect of demo injection gets over, then chance of getting pregnant is almost nil. But if it has not happened, you might have had egg release and pregnancy might have been there. I will suggest you to get USG done to know about the exact gestational age and viability of the pregnancy. As you do not want to continue with the pregnancy, you can opt for termination of pregnancy with abortion pills under medical supervision safely till 9 weeks of pregnancy. Once you are done with the pregnancy termination, you can get proper counseling done for future contraceptive use. I hope this answer helps you. Thanks. Chat Doctor.

Hello Clara, Thanks for posting, If you and your siblings did not develop any complications at birth due to mother and fetus incompatibility then you have nothing to worry about now.  Hemolytic disease of the newborn (the condition is known medically as erythroblastosis fetal is) occurs when there is an incompatibility between the blood types of the mother and the fetus/baby. There is also potential incompatibility if the mother is Rh negative and the father is positive. Now since you are lady, what you need to know now is your own blood type to be able to determine if you will require additional medical care when you are pregnant to protect the fetus (from incompatibility). The Rh factor genetic information is also inherited from our parents, but it is inherited independently of the AGO blood type alleles. There are 2 different alleles for the Rh factor known as Rh+ and Rh-. Now, if your father is Rh+ and mother Rh- it means you will likely inherit an Rh+ antigen (your genotype will be Rh+/Rh-= the two alleles but the Rh+ will be the dominant). So I do suggest, you quit being worried and know for sure that you will have no major health risk when it comes to your blood type. Do however get tested (blood groups) just to be sure. Hope this helps

! You are taking Zoloft for the anxiety and depression, but I do t think it is well controlled with 50 mg and so, you have been advised to increase Klonopin. I do not feel that this will be the correct way to handle the situation as increasing Klonopin will not help the real purpose of handling the illness effectively. What should be done in such case is -- that the dosage if sertraline should be increased to 75-100 mg and then if required to 150 mg daily. This will help to handle the illness and is also not addictive like Klonopin. Once the illness is well controlled for some time, we should plan to reduce the dosage of Zoloft. Moreover, once we increase the Zoloft, then need to take Klonopin also reduces, or may even be not needed at all after some days. Do get your blood test done, and check your blood pressure. Sleeplessness can be handled by taking collided at nighttime in spite of Klonopin, as this is non-addictive in nature. Hope this helps you, Pelase feel free to ask more questions for further clarification


HI, thanks for using Chat Doctor You need to consider completing the course of antibiotics for a 7-day period.

You should have a lab urinalysis done to determine the best antibiotic to treat the infection and take the medication for the complete recommended time to clear it. I hope this helps

Hello there, Thanks for writing your query, According to your clinical history I suspect you had a PIN RETAINED amalgam restoration over your tooth. Usually post with crown preparation is done only after the tooth is devitalized by root canal procedure. In your case as you have mentioned you have no symptoms of pain and discomfort related to the tooth, we need to check the vitality of the tooth before replacing the crown. Exact diagnosis can be made only after clinical examination and evaluation by taking radiographs.  If needed, Root canal procedure is done to disinfect the tooth by removing the infected nerve tissue and the root canals are cleaned, shaped and filled with permanent restorative material. Once the treatment is completed, the tooth can be restored by a post and core preparation with a prosthetic crown coverage. I hope this helps, take care.

In your case, insulin is definitely a possibility. The symptoms that you have described plus the low sugar levels and high insulin levels, all point towards the possibility of insulin. It is a tumor arising from the pancreas from the cells that produce insulin in the body. The only definitive treatment is removal of the tumor surgically. For this, we have to locate the tumor first. For this, you should get a contrast enhance CT scan of the abdomen done. If it is normal, then an upper GI endoscopy with endoscopic ultrasound should help locate the tumor. Meanwhile, always keep something sweet like biscuits or sugar handy and eat it as soon as you feel the sugar going down. Don't miss any meals.

Hello! I read your question carefully and understand your concern. I am sorry for your father. Unfortunately there is no effective medication in this situation. The best treatment would be physiotherapy which helps move his paralyzed limbs and relieve the stiffness. Another treatment I would recommend is a good anti hypertension therapy, in order to obtain a normal blood pressure. This would prevent a second hemorrhage which would be devastating. A low salt diet is necessary to maintain a normal blood pressure. For the speech problems looped is very helpful. Thank you for using Chat Doctor! Best wishes!

Hello dear, The size of penis is genetically determined, and it does not increase after a certain limit. But one thing should be known that the size of penis does not determine the potency of an individual. So, do not get influenced by any over the counter medication which claim to increase the size of penis or improve performance...it may be harmful. Though medications like Calls & Viagra increase blood flow to penis & maintains erection, it can be improved by having a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, fish, nuts & honey. Avoid stress...practice meditation.this helps in improving concentration & builds up the confidence level. Avoid smoking & alcohol. You can also do oil massage of the penis...it increases blood flow & maintains the erection. Wishing you a Healthy Life. Take care.

Hello and welcome to ChatDoctorI have read and understood your query hope this will help you. Dengue fever is caused by DENGUE VIRUS transmitted through bite of mosquito ANDES EGYPT.

Hello! Welcome and thank you for asking on Chat Doctor! I carefully passed through your question and would explain that your symptoms are not related to any cardiac disorder. Anxiety or high blood pressure could be the cause of this symptomatology. Have you measured your blood pressure during these episodes? I would also recommend performing a complete blood count for anemia and thyroid hormone levels for possible thyroid dysfunction which can mimic this symptomatology. If the above tests result normal, and your blood pressure is normal too, you should consider anxiety as the main cause of your symptoms. In such case, I would advise consulting with a specialist of this field, in order to help you manage better your anxiety. Psychotherapy and an antidepressant could be helpful! Hope you will find this answer helpful! Best wishes,

It is never wrong to have a doctor look!  Statistics show that if a child hits her head but never loses consciousness, never throws up, cries right away or returns to play right away, and doesn't seem sleepy or unusually out of it after a head bump, then the chances of a serious injury being present are extremely low.  Most likely the nose/mouth got hit somehow on the way down or right when she hit, and that lead to the bleed.  If it stopped right away, it is usually no cause for alarm.  Again, if anything at all seems off, it is always right to have the doctor take a look.
