000003500 | Hello dear, thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. In my opinion we should first rule out cardiac cause for your chest pain. So get done ECG. If this is normal then no need to worry about cardiac cause. Uncontrolled asthma is the cause for your chest pain. And your burping can be due to HERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease). HERD can cause poor control of asthma. So In your case control of HERD and asthma is needed. So consult pulmonologist and start inhaled treatment for asthma and proton pump inhibitor for HERD. Once your asthma and HERD is control, your chest pain will also be subsided.Don't worry, you will be alright. | |
000003501 | Hello, Thanks for your query. Nausea or vomiting may be side effects of the general anesthesia or I.V. sedation. Nausea may also be caused by motion sickness during your ride home, prescribed antibiotics, pain medication, and swallowing blood. As you talk and eat more during recovery, you may notice bleeding that comes and goes or taste blood throughout the day. This is common. Rarely will you need to use gauze. If a clot has formed above the level of the gum tissue, and it is bleeding continuously, carefully wipe excess clot away with gauze, push clot back into the socket site, and hold direct pressure over the site for five minutes. I do hope that you have found something helpful, and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care | |
000003502 | Hi, Thank you for posting your query. The level of physical activity would depend on the status of your spine. If your TB has healed and the spine/vertebrae are stable, then, there is no problem in doing exercises. This can be confirmed by doing an MRI scan of the spine. Please discuss this issue with your treating doctor. I am sure that with one and a half years of good treatment, your disease would have healed, and you should be able to start exercises. I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow-up queries or if you require any additional information. Wishing you good health, Chat Doctor. Ly/ | |

000003504 | Hello and, Dementia is the loss of memory. Dementia will not interfere with walking or any other physical activity. Dementia is characterized with inability to memorize things, objects, conversation, people, etc. The loss of memory can be for things in recent past or for very old memories. The urine infection would have cleared away with the antibiotic treatment. Inability to walk can be due to some other cause, e.g. muscular problems. You need to consult an orthopedic for clinical evaluation to know the cause of inability/difficulty to walk. Thanks and take care Chat Doctor. | |
000003505 | Hello, Welcome to the magical world of health care, I went through your query, and Steroid medication (corticosteroids) is the preferred treatment for polymyalgia rheumatic. Don't suddenly stop taking steroid medication unless a doctor in charge of your care tells you It's safe to do so. Suddenly stopping treatment with steroids can make you feel very ill. Some people are prescribed immunosuppressant medication, such as methotrexate. This is used to reduce or suppress the immune system (the bodies defense against infection and illness). It may be helpful for people with polymyalgia rheumatic who have frequent relapses or don't respond to normal steroid treatment. Your doctor may recommend painkillers, such as paracetamol, or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor. I hope my advice would have been useful, in decision-making regarding your treatment, still if you have any clarifications or doubts feel free to contact back. Thanks. | |
000003506 | Hello, Thanks for the query, Please note that these MRI findings should be interpreted with caution as these finding are commonly seen in patients with back pain. The treatment for such patients largely depends upon the clinical signs elicited by a neurologist. If there is pain alone, the patient will improve with medications and physiotherapy. But if the patient has neurological deficit along with pain, he/she may benefit with surgical removal of the disc which is causing the problem. The cause of the problem is degenerative changes in the disc bones and muscles and ligaments. Hope this helps Best wishes Chat Doctor. Chat Doctor .com/doctors/ | |

000003509 | HI. Read the history carefully. It says the pain is sharp- 2-5 minutes-increases on stretching-dull pain around scrotum and so on.... As your investigations are negative I would think of a muscular cause and may be an entrapped nerve causing the sharp pain and referred to the scrotum. I would advise undergoing the high resolution ultrasonography of the abdominal wall; mark down the site of pain when you get an attack. This will help for a pointed investigation. | |
000003510 | Hi ! Good morning. I am Chat Doctor answering your query. With your history, it is typical of a sebaceous cyst with a black dot on it, which discharges a smelly cheesy material on squeezing. This is a benign cyst without any fear of turning into a malignancy. However, to prevent other complications like recurrent infections, abscess formation, it is advisable to get it operated and send it for a histopathological study to confirm the diagnosis. If I were your doctor, I would refer you to a general surgeon who after examining you physically and a preoperative check-up, might advise you to get it operated soon. 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. Wishing you an early recovery. Chat Doctor. | |

000003516 | Dear patient hip arthritis is likely possibility. Diagnosis can be done from X-ray of the pelvis with both hips anteroposterior and frog leg views if it is advanced. Mri of the right hip may be needed for early stage disease. If X-ray is normal and MRI is showing arthritis changes it means disease is early and replacement can be delayed. If X-ray changes are obvious total joint replacement is the best option. It is very rewarding surgery with excellent results. Prosthesis shelf life is also long nowadays and long term studies are also available. Other option is joint fusion which is absolute procedure and gas poor results. | |

000003518 | Hello, Low sodium or potassium levels can create anxiety, weakness and dizziness etc. As your symptoms bear a temporal relation with low potassium, I think you should discuss this with the doctor who is giving you the medicine. There are other choices available in market which donor cause significant reduction in potassium while also prevent its rise at the same time. So, it will be wise to consult this with the treating team and not stop the medicine on your own. Even high potassium level is dangerous and should be balanced. I hope the reply is useful for you. | |

000003537 | The pain is different for the two situations, sitting / pooing. If you think he is in pain the moment just before pooping then it's a probably an analysis fissure from constipation and warrants SYVICOL if you think the pain is always when he sits on it, then he probably has an injured coccyx, and this is confirmed by an x-ray. These injuries take a long time to heal because of its position.

000003538 | Hello! I read carefully your query and understand your concern. If you don't have upper abdominal pain, heartburn,nausea, vomiting,weight loss, and you are eating well without problems I think your stomach is fine. This pulsating sensation in your stomach may due to your anxiety because when you are in stress your heart beat faster, the pulse increase and blood pressure in major body arterial, such as abdominal aorta and your neck arteries, is elevated, and you might feel this like a pulsating sensation on stomach and neck. Despite this I suggest consulting a physician, so he can do a physical examination and evaluate if this pulsating sensation is objective(he can feel this by palpating/touching your abdomen) or it is just your sensation. If this is due to anxiety you will feel better after the confirmation of your doctor. Hope my answer has helped. Take care. Chat Doctor. | |

000003540 | Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor.First I would like to inform you that you have not mentioned the reference rang for bun of your test result, because it varies from one lab to another. Ideal range for bun is 7-21 mg/DL. An elevated BUN in the setting of a relatively normal creatinine, which is your case, may reflect a physiological response to a relative decrease of blood flow to the kidney without indicating any true injury to the kidney. So, in your case you are advised to take plenty of fluids orally to increase blood volume. Best of luck. | |
000003541 | Hi, Emergency contraception taken at the time of the intercourse would help to possibly prevent pregnancy, should it be the fertile period.
