The risk of HIV or Hepatitis B infection from the scenario you told me about is extremely low. HIV and Hepatitis B are primarily transmitted through the infection of the blood of the infected persons. The symptoms may include being feeble, jaundice, or flu-like symptoms.

Abdominal pain with masses on the intestine can happen for the reasons above like a tumor or a growth. In your case, the doctor removed several tumors, which made the operation more complicated. It is important to put your trust in your doctor in such cases to improve your health. It may take time for the recovery to happen, but if you adhere to their post-operative care instructions, you will have the best results.

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.

Answered on 19th July '24
Hearing about your missing belly button might be disconcerting, but be confident that your health will not be affected because of it. Your navel does not take part in your health's normal job, so you should be fine. Anyway, however, always watch for any discomfort or abnormality, such as pain or swelling in that specific area. If you do notice something different then you should consult a doctor.

Headaches and yellow mucus often suggest a sinus infection. Sinuses get blocked, causing head pressure and pain. Yellow mucus indicates your body is fighting an infection. Try using a humidifier, drinking water, and saline nasal sprays. If the mucus doesn't clear, see a doctor.

A wound not healing and yellow liquid oozing out could mean infection. Bacteria entering cut can cause this. It's a good idea to see a doctor soon. They'll likely prescribe antibiotics to kill germs. You'll also get tips to properly care for wound. Don't ignore it, get it checked promptly.

Can I Swim and Ride Water Slides After Pancreas Surgery?
Hello, I had pancreas surgery a month ago. I just wanted to know if I can go swimming and ride water slides after a month of surgery? The surgery was only 3 small cuts.
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 13th July '24
After a pancreas surgery, one should be more mindful that the person should not stay longer in the water and especially not undertake swimming and water slides that are heavy on the internal organ part and can be the cause of some complications. Allow your surgical wounds to heal and do not perform water activities for 2 to 3 months. It's quite natural to feel tensed and it's the right approach to not indulge in these things until you are fully healthy again.

If you are under 30 years old and your vaccines are up-to-date, you are at a lower risk for tetanus. Tetanus is caused by bacteria found in soil, dirt, or manure. People sometimes experience muscle stiffness, which can make swallowing difficult. Remember to check your immunization records.

A broken stitch can cause redness, swelling, or tenderness. This might happen due to the strain on the area during the moving. To take care of it, keep the area clean and dry.
