<s>[INST] What could be the reason for stomach pain in child? [/INST] Hi, It seems your kid is having viral diarrhea. Once it starts it will take 5-7 days to completely get better. Unless the kid's having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting. You need not worry. There is no need to use antibiotics unless there is blood in the motion. Antibiotics might worsen if unnecessarily used causing antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. I suggest you use zinc supplements (Z&D drops 1ml once daily for 14 days) & ORS (Each small packet mixed in 200ml of potable water and keep giving sip by sip) as hydration is very important and crucial part of treatment. If there is vomiting you can use Syrup Ondansetron (as prescribed by your paediatrician). Regarding diet - You can use cerelac. Any flavour will do. Avoid fruit juices as they might aggravate diarrhea. You can give zinc supplements & ORS apart from normal vegetarian porridges & soups. Hope I have answered your query.

Stage 4 lung cancer encompasses several lung cancer types, and includes cancers that have spread to only one distant region or those that have spread extensively.

<s>[INST] Q. My daughter has scabies, which did not subside with medication. Please help. [/INST] Hello. Please continue the Atarax syrup (Hydroxyzine) only if there is itching. You can repeat HH mite cream (Permethrin) if itching is significant. It has to be applied to the whole body below the neck. Avoid the head, face, neck, anal and vaginal areas. Also, avoid regions where the skin is scratched. Over the scratched regions, you can apply Flutivate (Topical Fluticasone). Clip the nails of the baby, before the application, as the eggs of the scabies mites are generally present in the nails, which might cause a reinfection. Apply at night, and wash properly the next morning. All the family members should undergo the same treatment, even if they do not have symptoms. All the bed sheets and pillow covers and clothes of the family members should be washed separately. Fresh bedsheets or pillow covers should be used the next morning. I suggest you use HH mite soap (Permethrin topical), till complete recovery after this application. Itching may continue even for a week or two after HH mite application. So, if you have already followed the above procedure during your previous application, you can just use soap for now and wait for recovery. If you have not followed the above procedure, you can repeat the application of cream. For more information consult a paediatrician online --> </s> |

<s>[INST] Q. Can Yasmin birth control pill be used as an emergency contraceptive pill? [/INST] Hi. How are you doing? Yes, as you have heard, Yasmin can be used as an emergency pill. Even if you have not ejaculated into her, she stands a chance of pregnancy if the pre-seminal fluid, the clear fluid that comes out before semen, which is rich in young healthy sperms, comes in contact with her genitals. As soon as possible, earlier the better, I suggest taking four tablets of Yasmin (combination of Ethinyl Estradiol and Drospirenone) at the time, repeat four more tablets after 12 hours. This being a high dose of hormones, it will suddenly increase the inner lining of the uterus. Then as it is a single dose, the inner lining will fall off. This makes it unfavorable for the possible embryo or baby to settle into the uterus. She will get her periods within 7 to 10 days of the last pill. But do not keep repeating this frequently, it can disturb the hormonal balance and can reduce the effectiveness of the pill. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and start taking the medicines after their consent. This is an old method, but it is an effective emergency method. Just do not delay the pills. As time passes by, the effectiveness reduces. Hope I have clarified your query, do write back. All the best. For further queries consult an obstetrician and gynaecologist online --> </s> |

<s>[INST] What does Left axis deviation from ECG suggest? [/INST] Hello, The patient has had a left cerebral haemorrhage. The left side of the brain controls the right side of the body. Therefore the haemorrhage on the left side of the brain affects the right side of the body. A high blood pressure is probably the cause of the haemorrhage in this case. A normal BP is 120/80. So, of course, the BP was high for him. And this may have resulted in the haemorrhage. The recovery depends on the size of haemorrhage, the age of the patient, the deficit in the first place, the location of the haemorrhage and control of BP among several other factors. A control of BP previously by regular check-up may have prevented the condition. A headache may have been a common symptom that he may develop. However very frequently there is no preceding symptom. The ECG findings suggest that hypertension was starting to affect the heart chambers as well. The heart was probably starting to remodel itself in view of the blood pressure changes.

<s>[INST] Q. Does Nicotex chewing gum help in quitting smoking? [/INST] Hello. As you have been a chronic smoker since last 10 years smoking 10-15 cigarettes per day, the body is presently addicted to nicotine and hence if you intend to leave it for a day, the nicotine withdrawal sets in. This may include: These Nicotex chewing gums have nicotine in them in varying concentrations which allow a sustained but minimal release of nicotine while chewing. This nicotine is absorbed through buccal mucosa thus not allowing the withdrawal symptoms to become evident, but the benefit is that you are free from most of the side effects of smoking per se, especially the smoke entering into lungs which may lead to lung diseases in future. This is a substitute to nicotine supplementation and is being prescribed for chronic smokers who wish to discontinue it slowly by following the principle of slow desensitization. These are available off the counter and no prescription is required for the same. You may try it and try to reduce your smoking urges. In the end, Nicotex can just help you in a way but you need to develop a will to quit smoking and that is very important. You may try and see how you respond to it as every person responds differently to its use. It has been seen to give successful outcomes, but again will power is still the most important thing behind quitting smoking. </s> |

Your daughter is having repeated upper urinary tract infection which may be due to several causes for eg. reflux of urine, duplex kidney and ureter due to which urine from one ureter moves back and forth to other ureter (yo-yo reflux), some hold-up in the urinary tract (which may be since birth) or simply a body predisposition to certain bacteria. So one, she needs a thorough evaluation by a urologist or a pediatric urologist to find the cause of infections. If she cant void during the special X-rays, the procedure can be done under anesthesia and gentle pressure applied on lower abdomen to look for reflux. Two, her kidneys need to be protected from further infection related damage, so she may require long-term low dose antibiotics to prevent infection. go see a urologist early. good luck. </s> |

<s>[INST] A uretic stent placed, removed after colon resection surgery, still bleeding while urinating. Is it normal ? [/INST] Hi,Thanks for writing in.Research shows that ureteric injury is a feared complication in colorectal surgery, with a reported incidence of 0.2%–7.6%. This can be decreased by ureteric catheter placement that gives the surgeon the advantage of facilitating intraoperative ureter identification and assisting in immediate injury recognition and repair.Also this decision is controversial because of fear of ureteric damage during catheter insertion and postoperative urinary complications such as obstructive oliguria and urinary tract infection.I suppose there has been little injury to the urinary tract due to the stent placement in your father during surgery. It was an action keeping in mind the complication associated with the surgery. Further research done in 2012 shows that ureter stent placement is safe and justified in most cases. Unfortunately the stent has caused a little scratch in your father. The injury should heal soon.Hope this helps. </s> |

<s>[INST] How to stop stinging in feet due to diagnostic neuropathy? [/INST] Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. It would be diabetic neuropathy. Each treatment for it other than very high doses of narcotics has only about a 1 in 4 possibility of working. At all. It is hard to treat. Other drugs with novocaine like effects like lidocaine patches or creme or amitryptiline are other possibilities but they do not have a high likelihood of working either. It is a tough disorder. Sometimes if the diabetes is really badly treated, getting the sugar below 300 will change it. Mostly, it is the length of time one has had diabetes more than the amount of control of it that matters and getting diabetes under good control isn't helpful. Hope I have answered your query.

<s>[INST] What causes a 4-month-old baby to cry constantly and have bowel movements only once in a week? [/INST] Hi, This is called evening colic and is quite common in this age group. This happens when the baby sucks at the breast very fast and in eagerness to drink milk will gulp in air too. Unless the air comes out like burping or flatus this discomfort will be there and next time check if the baby is sucking too fast and gulping in air too. You will be more convinced. Usually, I don't advice any medicines for this as they give only temporary relief. The two best ways to relieve this distress is - 1. Do not put the baby in lying position after feeding till the baby burps out the swallowed air. 2. If still crying - put the baby in prone position and keep patting the back gently so that the baby passes off the flatus and gets relieved. Babies of this age may pass motion 10 days once or 10 times a day also. If the baby is active and feeding well, don't worry. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

<s>[INST] Suggest treatment for lower pelvic pain and testicle pain [/INST] Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.This type of pain and location is suggestive of epididimitis which is inflammation of part of testicle and this not uncommon in males especially in young age. This is usually treated with 10 days of antibiotics, usually ciprofloxacin and there are no permanent consequances. MAsturbation and intercourse should be avoided till pain persist, if possible since I may prolong inflammation course. Some more serious conditions such as tumors or torsion are rare but in doubtful cases you should do Doppler ultrasound or scintigraphy. In this particular case, I don’t think this is required and this should improve on antibiotic therapy.I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.Kindly regards. Wish you a good health. </s> |
