Why is my penis and anus swollen with constant semen discharge?
I'm a 18 year old male and my penis and anus are swollen and red I have semen constantly coming out of my penis
Urologist
Answered on 13th May '24
This may be a sign of infection in your genital area. If your testicles are swollen, red, and have a discharge of semen all the time, it is not normal. This may be caused by a sexually transmitted disease or inflammation. These conditions require medical attention for healing. Therefore, it is important that you see a urologist as soon as possible for proper care and treatment.

Is chest pain after deep massage session normal?
Hello, today I had a deep massage session for my chest and stomach. The pain was horrible in my chest. Till now I can feel it in my bones when I move, so I’m just concerned about the pain. Is it normal? I tried to get up minutes before and I felt dizziness in my eyes and I couldn’t see clearly, I also felt coldness in my fingers and heard noises in my ears It was just for seconds

It's not normal to feel terrible chest pain after having a massage. Dizziness, blurred vision, cold hands and noises in the ears are not good signs following a massage. This could happen if certain areas were pressed during the massage or if blood circulation was affected. You should take a break, drink some water and use a warm cloth to calm your muscles down. Seek medical help if the symptoms continue or become worse.

Answered on 13th May '24
Having diarrhea or soft poop could be due to many things such as infections or food sensitivities while difficulty passing stool could mean constipation. You need to eat more fiber, drink plenty of water, and also go for a medical check-up to know exactly what is wrong with you.

Why am I bleeding lightly at 6 weeks?
Can u bleed at 6 weeks? Just a little and stop?
Gynecologist/Obstetrician
Answered on 13th May '24
Yes, it is possible to bleed lightly for 6 weeks of pregnancy, and at last, it stops. This is appendicle and known as implantation training. When the fertilized egg sticks to a uterus lining it happens. Remarkably, if the blood loss is minuscule and the patient does not feel pain, everything is okay. However, in contrast to this, long-term, or if the folks feel hard pain with bleeding, they have a hand-set in consultation with the gynecologist.

Why is my labia swollen, itchy, and discharging white crust?
I am a 24 year old female . After noticing crusty cheese discharge my labia has been itchy and swollen (stiff) and sticking out . My clitoris also looks swollen . What do I do ?
Social Obstetrics And Gynecologist
Answered on 13th May '24
It looks like a yeast infection, in my opinion. The symptoms are due to a type of bacteria. These bacteria love damp and warm regions such as the vagina. Instead of visiting a professional, you can try over-the-counter antifungals. To ensure that the area is always neat and dry. If the symptoms are still the same, be sure to visit a gynecologist for further guidance.

It may feel like you might be caught in a storm of emotional pain from your stammering-induced rapid and racing thoughts. This state, caused by genetics or anxiety, is a great relief; however, when one's thought process is a vast emptiness that only confuses one's speech. Mind overload can lead to stuttering. The assistance of a therapist in overcoming your stress and thoughts becomes crucial.

Why is my TSH level fluctuating so much?
Hi, I know there is a very slim chance that you will respond. But can I ask you a question; I have hasimotos (diagnosed 7 years ago). I function the best when my tsh level is around 0.8. I had a bloodtest 7 weeks ago and out of nowhere my tsh level was 2.9, I was also very tired etc. So my doctor and i decided to up my medication from 100mcg to 112 mcg. however the last 4 weeks ive been gaining weight like crazy. Atleast 3,5 kg.I also have a lot of energy, unstoppable hunger and feel very aggatated. I did another blood test and my tsh level is now 0,25.
General Physician
Answered on 13th May '24
Your body has probably become alerted to the changes in the medicine you're consuming, as evidenced by the switch of drugs. A sudden drop in your TSH may cause you to have symptoms such as a feeling that your energy has escalated, increased appetites, and weight gain. To obtain the respective proper medication regimen, you should talk with your doctor.

I had unprotected sex and took emergency contraceptives on the same day but my periods are 4 days late could I be pregnant?
Gynecologist
Answered on 13th May '24
Emergency contraceptives are effective in preventing pregnancy, but they're not 100% guaranteed. It's common for periods to be delayed after taking them. However, if you're concerned about pregnancy, it's best to consult a gynecologist for proper evaluation and guidance.

Should I be concerned about persistent nosebleeds?
It was cold. Blood is coming out of the nose. Even spit. It's been 2 days
General Physician
Answered on 13th May '24
Nosebleeds can happen because the air is dry or if you sneeze a lot. If you are spitting blood with a bleeding nose, it might be from the back of your nose. Sit straight up, pinch your nose, and breathe through your mouth. If it doesn’t stop, get help from an ENT specialist.

Why do I feel liquid and muscle stretching in head?
I feel liquid in head when i move my head and i feel muscle streaching inside of my head when i move my head
Neurosurgeon
Answered on 13th May '24
When there is liquid talking in your ear or you hear that whooshing sound when you move your head it might be due to the fluid in your inner ear. the canals of your inner ear might have shifted. This occurs because the balance mechanism in your ear has been tampered. A feeling like stretching could be due to the tension that has grown inside the neck muscles. Try using gentle neck exercises as well as relaxation exercises and when these sensations linger, seek medical assistance.

Should I Pursue Chemo for Aggressive Breast Cancer Spread?
Keeley Mums cancer has spread too far and has been deemed too aggressive for surgery. It started off in the breast and has spread to her brain, throat, lungs, liver and now also into her lymph nodes... She has been referred to oncology, who will look at her case and decide whether she is a fit for chemotherapy, and once they meet her they will decide if she is strong enough to go through it. IF mum is able to have the chemo, she will either be given a course of tablets to take, I believe they are one tablet a week. Or she will be given chemo via an IV and will have to go to once every three weeks for a few hours. If mum decides not to have chemo she will be referred to palliative care
Oncologist
Answered on 13th May '24
If breast cancer advances to the brain, throat, lungs, liver, and lymph nodes, it is advanced cancer. Breast Cancer naturally develops in the cells of the human breast. But when cancer cells are balooned in size, it is called breast tumor. Chemotherapy treatment is regarded as one of the most popular therapies for advanced Breast Cancer. Chemotherapy can be done as an outpatient procedure if your mom can physically handle the treatment..

Do I have Herpes? Tiny pink penile bumps
I think I may have the STD/STI virus called Herpes. There are tiny little pink bumps that have been on my penis for a while now.
Dermatologist
Answered on 13th May '24
It is really important to keep monitoring and watching any changes occurring in your body. These small pink pimples that you see might be due to Herpes. Having sores, blisters, and itching are the common outcomes when you get an infection. A virus caused by herpes simplex is spread by the transmission of proteins from the infected source to the recipient's body. But the only certain way till the moment it is still unconfirmed is to get tested by a professional health worker.

Why won't razor bumps go with ketoconazole cream?
I have this razor bumps that has refused to go I ve used ketoconazole cream but still no results
Trichologist
Answered on 13th May '24
At times, ingrown hairs cause little red bumps which can be annoying. I know that ketoconazole cream works great for some skin problems but I’m not sure if it would help with razor bumps. Maybe try using a mild exfoliating scrub to get rid of these pesky little bumps. Do not shave over them until they have cleared up! You might want to see a dermatologist who can give you some tailored advice if this doesn’t work.

Hello, I'm 20, female, I had protected sex on April 13 and 14, my period is 16 days late now, pregnancy tests came out negative, should I be worried?
Social Obstetrics And Gynecologist
Answered on 13th May '24
Feeling concerned is completely normal at a time like this. A late period can occur for many reasons even if protected sex was had and pregnancy tests are giving negative results. Stress, weight changes, hormone imbalances, or certain drugs could all affect your menstrual cycle. It might help to keep track of any other symptoms alongside checking in with a gynecologist if it continues being late.

Chest and back get hot . She was in hospital 3 weeks ago for RSV
Pulmonologist

These signs may follow an RSV attack. RSV is a virus which affects the lungs and breathing. Sometimes heat in the chest and back is caused by swelling of the airways. Taking a lot of fluids and rest will enable your body to recover. However, if these signs persist or worsen, it is necessary to see a pulmonologist for further advice.
