Your wife's weight loss course will commence with dieting, exercise, and lifestyle modifications.
And in the event that they don't return desired results, only then she will be granted some medical or surgical treatment, but that would be parallel to her ongoing efforts pertaining to her diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes.

 

  • To move on to prescription based remedies, she would be required to meet one of the following criteria:
    1. Her body mass index (BMI) is equivalent of or greater than 30
    2. Her BMI is greater than 27, and additionally, she has medical complications linked with obesity, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, or sleep apnea
       
  • Before prescribing any medical remedy, the doctor will assess her on the basis of her health history, as well as possible side effects which could likely occur based on whatever symptoms she's showing.
    Weight loss medicine licensed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) include the following, but she will have to be monitored & permitted by her doctor as well:
    1. Orlistat (Alli, Xenical)
    2. Phentermine and topiramate (Qsymia)
    3. Bupropion and naltrexone (Contrave)
    4. Liraglutide (Saxenda, Victoza)

When she will stop taking her prescription medication, she might observe that she has regained more or all of her weight. And there could be side effects & risks as well, so keep the doctor updated on a routine basis.
 

  • Endoscopic surgeries: less invasive surgical procedures concerned with limiting her overall intake of food, we have given some gist below, just for your reference:
    1. Planting stitches inside her stomach so as to reduce its size and the amount of food which she can consume.
    2. Or inserting a small balloon within her stomach, which is then filled with water to limit the space available. This helps you feel fuller quicker.
       
  • Bariatric surgeries: These are surgical methods that have the same function as our endoscopic surgeries, but with more invasive procedures.
    1. She will qualify for them if earlier methods failed, but for this she would also have to be extremely obese (BMI of 40 or greater), and if her BMI happens to be between 35 to 39.9, then her serious weight-related problems will be taken into consideration as well.
    2. Following are the procedures which she can be counted for: gastric by-pass, adjustable gastric banding, biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch, and gastric sleeve.
       
  • Vagal nerve blockade:
    1. It involves implanting a device under the skin of the abdomen, which transmits intermittent electrical pulses to the abdominal vagus nerve, same helps in communicating to the brain when the stomach is empty or full.
    2. Adult individuals who have not been able to lose weight and who have a BMI of 35 to 45, coupled with some obesity-related disease, are also eligible.
       
  • Proceeding to weight loss treatment cost, the surgical procedures will cost anywhere between Rs. 2,25,000 to Rs. 7,00,000. Whereas dieting-related consultation can vary from rs. 1,200 to rs. 20,000.
     

For more information regarding obesity, you can visit experts and use our page to find them: Dietitian/Nutritionists in Bangalore, she will start out with these specialists but as she advances to further stages owing to her complications, she will be referred to other doctors as well. Let us know if you reside in a different city, to recieve better recommendations.

Female | 13

A hernia is when an organ comes out of a hole in the muscle, making a bump and hurting you. After the surgery, it frequently occurs. The recommendation is to consult your physician without delay. Your doctor might also propose surgery if the hernia is not corrected. Do not lift heavy stuff or strain your belly as it may worsen the hernia during this period.

Household chores after hysterectomy?

Female | 41

To start with light household chores after a hysterectomy and avoid the strenuous activities. For the first weeks, do not lift anything more than 10 pounds to avoid putting stress on this area of surgery. Reintroduce activities such as cooking or light cleaning gradually, but never bend, stretch or lift heavy weight. If you feel uncomfortable or tired, listen to your body and rest. Generally, 6 to 8 weeks after the doctor’s recommendations a gradual return to normal activities is prescribed.

If a cut was applied at the time of delivery, stitches were not applied due to the patient's condition becoming worse, so is it possible that the wound can be healed by applying stitches again after five years?

Male | 36

It is possible to stitch a cut, even if it happened many years ago. When a cut isn’t stitched at the start, the wound may continue to bleed, could leave a scar, and may take a longer time to heal. If the injury is still causing issues like pain, redness, or discharge even after 5 years, it might need proper treatment to heal completely. It’s best to have a doctor examine the injury and advise on the most effective treatment.

Female | 22

HIV is a virus that can be transmitted by blood. Acknowledging the low probability of contagion in your case, because the wound is almost healed. In case you get some symptoms like fever or body aches, then don't be scared it doesn't mean that you have AIDS.

How to sit after hysterectomy?

Female | 43

After a hysterectomy, sitting is merely the time to facilitate your recovery. Do not proceed with the bend-over technique – use your legs to squat and rise. Pick sturdy chairs with high backs and armrests. Avoid the heavy lifting, forcing pain and take regular breaks. Talk to your doctor for customized recovery plan with particular recommendations as to the proper posture. Pay attention to your body and try focusing on gentle motions along with relaxation.

I feel numbness near the treated area; is this temporary or should I be concerned?

Female | 65

Numbness in the treated area is normal after surgery. This may be because the medicine used in the process has some temporary effect on the nerves. Apart from this, you may have a tingling or pins and needles sensation. Usually, this numbness heals by itself as your body recovers. If the numbness symptom lasts for a long time or increases, you should notify your doctor.

Male | 37

Laparotomy is a type of surgery where the doctor makes a large incision in your abdomen to see inside and fix any issues. It is done for serious problems such as a blocked intestine, organ health issues, or tumors. During the operation, the doctor opens your abdomen and carefully checks and treats the problem. Following your doctor's advice is the best way to achieve the health results.

I am Manish, 20 years old. I have high fever (100°) and mild headache since yesterday. Please recommend some medications.

Male | 20

Having a high fever and mild headache can make you feel pretty crummy. These symptoms can be due to an infection, like the flu or a cold. Taking acetaminophen can help bring down the fever and ease your headache. Rest, drink plenty of fluids, and keep an eye on your temperature. If your symptoms don't improve or worsen, it's important to reach out for further advice.
