My husband is 67 years old. He has a problem of urination due to prostate enlargement. Doctor has suggested laparoscopic surgery

If the doctor suggested laparoscopic surgery then it means that he has prostate cancer. This kind of surgery is carried out by making small 5 incisions as opposed to a traditional surgery which would necessitate a very large incision, it also uses a special kind of camera to invade the patient's body so that it can help doctors get a clear picture of the state of their internal organs. It's less painful and barely requires a stay of 1-2 days, but it will have its own set of side effects post surgery which would be solved with not lifting anything heavy, having adequate walk & rest, and being on a liquid diet. He would be eligible for same only if the cancer isn't aggressive or if he doesn't has a history of open or laparoscopic pelvic surgery. Average cost may come around Rs.3,60,000. There are some options available for this kind of organ specific cancer treatment. We pray for his faster recovery & healing!

Male | 6
It sounds like your child has been experiencing a series of distressing symptoms, including skin rashes, abdominal pain, and general discomfort. These could be linked to allergies, infections, or gastrointestinal issues. The scrotum pain and redness in the eyes may suggest inflammation or irritation, possibly from an allergic reaction. It's essential to maintain hydration and follow medical advice on medications. Observing closely for any changes and ensuring a suitable environment can help. If symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a pediatrician for a thorough evaluation and tailored treatment.

Best formula milk fr 0 to 6 mnth baby
Female | 26
Deciding on the best infant formula for your baby's health and well-being is a major decision. During the first 6 months of life, you should give him a complete nutrient that contains essential vitamins and minerals. Try to avoid formulas for babies that contain corn syrup, high fructose syrup, or sucrose. Obesity and type 2 diabetes are two of the possible health problems that will cause serious damage to our kids.

I’m worried about my daughters certain movement she’s 2 and half month old
Female | 0
Babies usually have different movements when growing. Your 2.5-month-old daughter may show jerky, shaky motions. Her developing nervous system causes this. These movements normally go away as she ages. Contact your pediatrician if concerned about any signs.

Mere baby ne aaj subah pale yellow stool paas kiya hai sir. And Yesterday se vo sirf curd ,mother feed or pani pee raha. Kal banana bhi khaya tha chapati nai kha raha Plz tell solution Iam very worried .
Male | 1
This could be related to the liver, gallbladder, or a change in diet. The stool color might change if your baby isn't eating his snacks. To be safe, monitor your baby's stool color, and if the change persists, consult your pediatrician. Keep offering a variety of foods to find out what your baby likes to eat.

the patient in hospital is a young girl and doctor wants to take her C.T. scan but she is crying too much and it difficult to control her in that condition what would doctor do
Female | 6
Crying is normal when frightened. To make the girl calmer, speak softly, give comfort, and explain the scans like taking a picture inside her body. Ask her parent to hold her hand or be close while it happens. This might help her feel safer. Giving her a favorite toy or music could also distract her from the scan's happenings.

6 month old baby having fever and loose stools from since yesterday evening.but she was acitive. Righ now her temperature was 101'F. I had paracetomol drops 150 mg. How many ml or drops i need give her? Her weight is not checking. Her loose stools are not too much.she taking her feeds is normal. Vaiding urine normal.
Female | 6 month
The fever of 101°F can be controlled with paracetamol drops. I guess your daughter is 6 months old. The doctor's manual indicates 10-15 mg per kg of her weight, but since she was not weighed, I am dispensing a general rule or you have to consult your pediatrician for specificity.
The soft bowel movements and fever could be caused by a slight viral infection. Make sure she remains hydrated and keeps up with her usual meals. If you still have symptoms, please visit the doctor.

Son 13 year old vomiting pain on stomach and headache
Male | 13
The signs of a stomach bug can start with vomiting. Stomach pain and headache are also two other possible symptoms. Often, these bugs are self-limiting and go by themselves, for the time being, ensure he drinks as much as possible to avoid dehydration, and feed him suitable light foods. Should he not feel any better in several days, it's the best option to see a gastroenterologist.

My child has slow development of brain. Not socializing and can not make friends
Male | 15
Children develop differently, some take more time than others. Your child's social struggles may indicate delayed brain growth. Delays appear as learning difficulties, atypical behavior, or communication troubles. Multiple factors contribute: genetics, birth issues, early experiences. A specialist can help with tailored therapies and support. Creating an encouraging home and promoting social activities aids progress.

my baby birth weight is 3.1 now she is 9 months and her weight is 4.7 she is not gaining weight can i feed her similac neosure for weight gain
Female | 0
Babies double their weight by six months, so it's good you pay attention. If yours isn't gaining weight properly, reasons could include insufficient intake, medical issues, or natural smallness. Rather than calculating solo, discuss with the pediatrician - they'll identify the actual cause and recommend ideal steps for your little one's progress.

I 27 month old daughters urine has been smelling very strong lately. It has an overpowering smell of bamboo shoots.
Female | 27 months
Kids may sometimes have stinky pee. Some foods and drinks like asparagus make that happen. But if it constantly smells strong like bamboo shoots, it might mean your child has a urinary infection. Look for other signs like fever or pain peeing. Be sure your daughter stays hydrated by drinking plenty of water. And if that funky smell keeps lingering for days, then it's wise to get her checked out by a urologist.

My son is 6 year old. He is unable eat full meals. He complains he is full after eating half of the food especially rice. He is OK eating small meals. He says no non veg foods which he used to eat. I am seeing this issue especially after Covid for past 1 year . Should I worry about this? Should I just give more time? His weight is not at all increasing. He is at 22 for the past 1 year. His height has increased but becoming very lean. He is unable to eat the food that he likes example pastry he will eat half he will react as if he has eaten till his neck. Which specialist should I consult?
Male | 6
Your son seems to have eating troubles after Covid. This issue needs attention. Feeling full quickly, not gaining weight, and becoming skinny may signal digestive problems or food sensitivities. See a pediatric gastroenterologist for diagnosis and treatment plan. You're wise noticing his changed eating habits and seeking help early. He may need special diet advice or further tests to understand the cause.

My son 4yrs old suffering with Dengue and black motion.is it dangerous?
Male | 4
Your son's ailments sound concerning. Dengue fever, spread by mosquitoes, causes severe illness. Black motion likely indicates gastrointestinal bleeding, which can dangerously lower blood pressure. Ensure he remains hydrated, rests adequately, and seeks prompt medical attention for treatment monitoring.

An ear infection caused by bacteria or viruses is the most common reason. Colds can sometimes cause this too. To help, give pain medicine and use a warm cloth on the ear. If earaches persist, take your child to see a pediatrician for an examination.

Symptoms like limited movement, irritability, and feeding difficulties can stem from his condition. It's important to ensure he receives appropriate therapies, such as physical and occupational therapy, to support his development. Regular check-ups with a pediatrician will help monitor his progress. Creating a calm environment may improve his willingness to engage with activities. Please consult with a pediatrician who can provide guidance tailored to his needs.

My 3nd half years son is passing urine frequently
Male | 3
If he is drinking water, it's normal. But if he's not drinking more water, yet he's still peeing a lot then it might be due to a urinary tract infection. This can lead to pain and a constant need to urinate. Ensure that he's getting enough water and try to take him to a pediatrician for examination.

Your sister seems to be under the weather. The flu virus causes cough, bulgum, and occasionally ear pain. An ear infection may be present, causing discomfort in her right ear.
