Last month, I had done small excisional biopsy of oral lesion in inner cheek. I had been diagnosed with mild to moderate Dysplasia. Within 20 days I feel a small white lesion has grown by the side of originally biopsied area. I discussed with doctor and he suggested me for wide excisional laser biopsy. What is the chance of cancer in this biopsy? Do I still have chance of re occurance?

Answered on 23rd May '24
Dysplasia indicates abnormal cell changes that could potentially lead to cancer if not treated. A wide excisional laser biopsy is recommended to remove the affected tissue and reduce the chances of cancer or recurrence. Only a pathologist can determine the chance of cancer based on the biopsy results.

I'm little concerned about exposure to pure toluene. I think I accidentally inhaled toluene vapours while working with it on solvents. Although nothing seems to be affected, but what precautionary measure should I take now? I don't huff toluene or inhale intentionally for addiction. But, I work with toluene as an artist to restore damaged brushes or wipe of paints
Male | 31
Toluene exposure can cause dizziness, headaches, and lightheadedness. Move to a well-ventilated area when using it and wear a protective mask. If you feel unwell, go outside for fresh air immediately.

Male | 17
It is not normal to experience leg and back pain, along with twitching or nerve pain, when you already diagnosed with epilepsy and anxiety. These symptoms may not directly related to your smoking habits, but they could also be symptoms of a more serious condition. Please consult a neurologist. They can diagnose and treat any underlying medical condition.

Male | 31
It is hard to figure out the reason of your symptoms without a physical exam and medical history review. But the chance of you having a viral infection such as a flu, which may cause you to have fatigue, constipation and body pain, cannot be ruled out. I suggest that you approach a specialist for further examination and for treatment purpose.

Can stem cell therapy cure kidney disease 100%
Male | 41
Stem cell therapy shows promise for treating kidney disease, but its ability to cure the condition 100% is not guaranteed. Factors like the type of kidney disease, patient's health, and treatment approach play a role. While there have been positive results, realistic expectations and consultation with specialists are important due to ongoing research in this field.

I need good medicine for high toc
Female | 48
High TG is synonymous with high triglyceride levels in the blood. This would require you to consult a doctor, ideally, a specialist on lipids or endocrinology. The doctor may suggest such drugs as statins and fibrates accompanied by recent exercise and a balanced diet.

Okay, I have a staphylococcus infection that I am treating. I took a Rocephin injection because other drugs were resistant. After the injection, I was prescribed a drug called ciprofloxacin. I have been experiencing some pain while taking ciprofloxacin.
Male | 20
You're experiencing pain while taking ciprofloxacin, which occurs occasionally during your treatment. This pain may be caused by irritation in your stomach due to the medication. Prolonged exposure to ciprofloxacin can lead to discomfort. It's important to inform your doctor about this so they can advise you on the next steps.

Good Morning I am a male, 29years from Southwest Nigeria, I have some illness I have been noticed for a while and i need advice. I always love football before but for a while I leave that activity due to academic pursuit but anytime I tried it now I get tired easily as if I will faint and slump. And moreover I get cold easily and which doesn't allow me to breathe deep as I should, but I noticed that anytime I take hot water or use hot water to bath I felt relieved but I don't think I should be using hot water for the rest so I am seeking a proper consultation
Male | 29
Anemia occurs when your body doesn't have enough healthy red blood cells to carry oxygen, leading to fatigue, cold sensitivity, weakness, and shortness of breath. While hot water may temporarily improve circulation, it's not a long-term solution. I recommend seeing a doctor for a blood test to check your red blood cell levels. Anemia can be caused by factors like iron deficiency or illness, and treatment may involve dietary changes, iron supplements, or other medications, depending on the cause. Getting proper medical care is essential to address your symptoms.

Hi doc.. can u get HIV through blood draw if the new syringe ( needle + syringe set packed) if someone poke through a infected needle with hiv blood?
Male | 36
Getting HIV from blood drawn with new needles is really hard. HIV doesn't last long outside bodies. If you poked yourself with used HIV blood needles, there's a risk though. HIV symptoms are like flu: very tired, swollen glands. So always use fresh needles and syringes!
