Is Swollen Scrotum After Gallbladder Removal Normal?
I had a gallbladder removal surgery and my scrotum is swollen and filled with fluid after that. Is it normal or I need to take some treatment ?

General Physician
Answered on 9th Sept '24
It’s common to feel concerned if your scrotum enlarges after gallbladder surgery. This condition, known as a hydrocele, occurs when fluid accumulates around the testicle. It happens because your body needs time to absorb the fluids used during the surgery. Fortunately, most hydroceles resolve on their own within a few weeks. However, if the condition persists or causes discomfort, consult your doctor. They can recommend treatments such as draining the fluid or surgery if necessary and will guide you to the best option.

Hello, I want to get a surgery done for my 9 month old son for polydactyl (extra toes in both feet). What would be the cost for both feet? And is it general anesthesia or spinal anesthesia?
Male | 1
Polydactyl is a condition characterized by presence of extra digits in the hand, foot or both
It needs a surgical removal. For a child of 9, it can be done under general or spinal anesthesia and may need a day's anesthesia.
Will need to see the child to see if tendons or bones will need any alignment, cost can be quoted thereafter.

The injury is treated by rinsing with water, applying a bandage, and letting it heal on its own. You should take precautions to avoid germs from coming into contact with this cut. Keep it clean, and the healing will be faster.

Male | 19
When the skin sticks to an internal organ, this is called adhesions. Adhesions can occur following an operation and may cause pain or discomfort when lifting heavy objects. If these adhesions are causing problems, it may be necessary to consult a doctor regarding possible solutions.

DOG BITEN WHEN I WAS 15 YEARS OLD
Male | 40
It's understandable to have concerns about past incidents involving animal encounters. If you experienced a bite, be aware of potential symptoms such as swelling, redness, or pain in the affected area. Infections could occur, so monitoring for signs like increased warmth or pus is advisable. Causes may include unexpected fright or the dog feeling threatened. It's essential to keep the wound clean and to consider a physician for an assessment and possible preventive measures like vaccinations.

Ma’am My ultrasound repot not showing anything . Still suffering from left side pain . Kindly suggest me
Male | 54
It’s completely understandable to feel concerned about persistent pain. Several factors could contribute to discomfort on the left side, including muscle strain, digestive issues, or sometimes even referred pain from other areas. While your ultrasound didn’t reveal anything significant, it’s crucial to continue monitoring your symptoms. I recommend keeping a daily log of any additional signs you experience. It might be beneficial to consult a surgeon for further evaluation, especially if the pain persists or worsens.

Doctor, I have chronic constipation and gas problem for years. I have had two colonoscopy done in 2013 and in 2016. Both the times they removed benign polyps. I think I am due for another colonoscopy checkup now. Please advise.

Get a CECT (Abdomen+Pelvis) with oral , iv and rectal contrast or MRI pelvis for knowing the organic cause if there are recurrent benign polyps and consult the general surgeon with histopathology reports of earlier polyps.

Symptoms of ovarian failure after hysterectomy?
Female | 36
The symptoms of ovarian failure following a hysterectomy may include hot flashes, night sweats and vaginal dryness. Menstrual patterns may change, and if ovaries were taken out, they will stop menstruating. Mood changes may include mood swings and irritability. Besides, low levels of estrogen may cause changes in libido. Ovarian failure can also impair bone health, which may influence bone density. If these manifestations occur, it is critical to seek the advice of your health care provider for proper assessment and intervention.

Mera laparaotomy karwane ke liye doctor ne bola hai per mujhe ye bho bola jaa raha hai ki is operation me mere pait ko beech se poora khola jayega. kya ye sach hai?
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.

Ive had a ruptured appendix surgery last Sunday. Yesterday, I noticed that my incision produces fluids. I am taking celecoxib, cefuroxine and metronidazole. Is my incision infected?
Female | 19
If you notice any fluids leaking from it, this could mean there’s an infection. Other signs of infection may be redness, warmth, swelling, and pain around the area where the incision was made. Usually infections are caused by bacteria. It’s crucial that you get in touch with your surgeons as soon as possible so that they could adjust your drugs or give you additional treatment if necessary.

Can I drink mild alcohol after inguinal hernia surgery 7 weeks?
Male | 25
After surgery for an inguinal hernia, it's generally safe to consume mild alcohol seven weeks post-operation, provided you feel well and have no complications. Alcohol can affect healing if consumed excessively, leading to dehydration or gastrointestinal issues, which may hinder recovery. If you experience any unusual symptoms like increased pain, swelling, or nausea after drinking, it's wise to stop and consult your healthcare provider. Always listen to your body and prioritize your wellness.

I had my gallbladder operation in the year 2021 .Why I am having sharp needle like pain after drinking hot milk tea for 21 days .Near the incision area I have red swelling.
Female | 65
This could be a case of surgical site infection. Usually, this happens after surgery where there is an incision made thereby causing redness as well as swelling around where you were cut. It might help if you keep that place dry after cleaning it every once in a while but try not to touch too much or else there might be more pain. Make sure to visit your doctor so they can figure out what else needs to be done about this.

How long do ovaries work after hysterectomy?
Female | 35
If the uterus is removed, as in a hysterectomy with preservation of ovaries, they usually work normally until natural menopause. But this may differ from person to person and the surgical approach. You should talk to your gynecologist and with the surgeon that did your surgery for details about you case. They will inform patients about post-surgery ovarian function recovery.
