Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. Your pain related to a hernia needs a thorough examination. If there are no complications seen during physical examination and ultrasound, then you can do surgery after a month. If there are any complications, then you need immediate surgery. For now, you can do TRUS (transrectal ultrasonography).
Hello, Welcome to cliniq.com. I see you have taken all the necessary medications for the fissure in anus. What I would like to tell you is you need to do two more important things. Firstly, since you have fissure and piles I can guess you might have constipation quite commonly hence you must be straining to pass the stools so I suggest you stop straining while passing stools. Next, add fiber to your diet.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I understand the problem your mother is facing. According to the history you have provided I believe she has developed injection site abscess though it is not uncommon in elderly people it can happen. Your doctor has started her on a single antibiotic injection, Oxidil (Ceftriaxone), but it is my opinion that it is better for her to undergo an incision and drainage procedure. It is a small procedure once wound is opened she will have immediate relief following by antibiotics.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I understand your condition. You say you are having bloodstained stools and there is no swelling in the anal region which is a good sign. Now, based on your history, I suspect you must have had constipation a couple of times. Constipation ultimately will lead to hard stools, which can cause a tear at the anal region.
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. From your history, I understand you might have developed an inguinal hernia, as it has occurred after lifting heavy weights, which is totally different from your previous diagnosis of hydrocele. Here, due to lifting heavy weights, the contents from your abdomen, mostly intestines or omentum, have descended into the scrotum. As you have said, it reduces when lying down. I think you are at an early stage with an uncomplicated hernia, which can be reduced.
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. I went through your detailed medical history and the reports you have mentioned here (attachment removed to protect patient identity). To tell you the fact, a small hydrocele is usually harmless, but it has the tendency to increase in size gradually over a period of time, at which point you might need surgery to help you. If the Doppler scans are not showing the varicocele, it might be at an initial stage. It is a good option to get your semen analysis done, which will help you to find out if there is any problem with your sperm, but it will not rule out the cause, which is a varicocele.
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. I understand your concern. I have seen many patients with similar pain. According to your treatment history, you have taken treatment for colitis or infection of the bowel. It is the common diagnosis observed and it subsides after taking antibiotics.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I understand your concern that you have a bulge in the left lower abdomen near the scar. You have done a CT scan, and it has been conclusive. It would be good to know if the bulge is decreasing when you lie down or increasing when you get up from your bed. If the bulge is increasing on coughing or getting up from bed, I can guess you might have had either a ventral hernia, which might have been reducible, and now it is not reducible that is probably the cause for your pain.
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. A breast reduction surgery is a cosmetic procedure, and you can get it done after a proper assessment by a plastic surgeon or a breast oncoplastic surgeon who are involved in cosmetic surgery of the breast, such as an augmentation or reduction or even reconstruction. Depending upon your need, you can get it done. But bear in mind most of the procedures which are considered cosmetic are usually not covered by insurance companies; hence you have heard of the term “push “ or a valid reason for your breast reduction procedure; however, if you want to spend your own money and get the procedure down, you can get it done as soon as you require it. Do rule out any other causes for your backache before you approach anyone for your breast surgery, as, at times, the cause for your neck and backache might be due to other causes.
Hello, Welcome to iclniq.com. You have not mentioned whether your daughter had an open or a laparoscopic appendicectomy. From the history you gave, I can imagine the appendix must have been severely infected as the doctor has kept a drain postoperatively which is quite helpful to drain any remaining pus and infected fluid. The pain might be due to many causes that need further assessment to rule out if it is just a post-operative pain which is quite normal or if it is due to sluggish bowel movement due to constipation. It is advisable to get an ultrasound abdomen to rule out any collection in the abdomen which might have caused the loose stools initially.
