Several studies have shown that chronic inflammation in the lungs caused due to asthma may be a factor in causing lung cancer. That means when asthma, is combined with other causes, may increase the risk of lung cancer.

Answered on 23rd May '24
If you don’t want pregnancy, then you will first have to get your sonography done, to see for how many weeks you have been pregnant. Second, how to approach this issue also depends on the number of months for which you have been pregnant, and if it's in the range of medical termination then you will be prescribed pills for same. You can approach gynecologists - Gynecologists in Bangalore, let the clinicspots team know if your city is different, and I can be consulted as well. Take care.

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?
Dr. Leena Jain
Plastic, Reconstructive, Aesthetic Surgeon
Answered on 23rd May '24
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.

Hi, I am 41 year old man, and I need to remove fat from my face as well as double chin. Looking for the surgery but off course with scissor. So what would be the easiest way to Remove it and how long does it takes?
Dr. Deepesh Goyal
Aesthetic Medicine
Answered on 23rd May '24
According to me, it is liposuction. It can be done in 1-2 hrs. But please note, liposuction is only recommended if you want to remove small amounts of fats. Many people mistake it as a weight loss procedure. I suggest you to visit a doctor for proper examination. Based on that, it will be decided whether you eligible for liposuction or need some other procedure to remove fat from your face and double chin.

traumatic headache
I have been getting chronic headache since my childhood. There were times I cried due to pain. Also I met with a serious accident and survived at the age of 8 and have near about 16 stitches on my head. I used to feel the symptoms more particularly when I work. I am an NIT Graduate worked in MNC and lost job bcoz of this headache and unable to concentrate. Whenever I masturbate the head ache is much more. So I reduced masturbation a lot as well.

From what we know, this policy is applicable for hospitals in Rajasthan. We do not own any clinic and use this platform to solely educate people about possible treatments and their costs as well as nearby facilities available for same. You can try to find hospitals on our page - Best Hospitals in Rajasthan. However, you may have to consult them to know if they allow that policy.
