Is he just really unlucky to have all of these allergies and should I be worried about the nose bleeds? | Doctor: Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. For nose bleed when it bleeds hold baby in sitting head stooping forward and pinching the nose or apply ice or cold water externally on node. It will control bleeding. For finding cause of nose bleed more detailed history and physical exam is needed. Sometimes it can occur with cold cough or nose picking habits especially in children with allergies. Generally allergies get worse with allergen exposure. Keep bed sheets and Pillow cover clean or you can wrap it in plastic so that the dust doesn't come out when child sleep. Wash curtains at least once in 2 weeks. Keep dust and smoke exposure as less as possible. Do pest control. Keep dogs, cats and pet out of house. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. | <s>[INST] Description: Is nose bleed in a toddler a matter of concern? [/INST] Doctor: Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

The other day, I saw a commercial on TV with three symptoms of diabetes. They were: being tired all the time, constant thirst, and urninateing frequemtly. I know for a fact that I've been expiriencing the first two, but I'm not so sure about the third.

Our family friend suggested me to consume Kalarchikai medicine, powdered mixed with pepper and honey to have it for one mandalam (48 days). I have completed nearly 44 days by consuming one small ball of the mixture every morning and before two weeks I got my periods. Then I had checked whether the cysts were dissolved by having an abdomen scan. But still, small multiple follicules have been seen in it with both ovaries enlarged. Kindly suggest me what I can do further. I got married before one and a half years and I am much worried about my pregnancy. I have gallstones as well. | Doctor: Hello. I just read your query. See Kalarachi Kai choornam is helpful in amenorrhea. As far as small cysts are concerned they are unmatured eggs which failed to induce menstrual cycle previously, as a result, they got collected in the ovary and they will remain in the ovary. Now, you have got your periods you can start trying for conception. But I advise you to do it under the supervision of a nearby gynecologist because egg size is important while conception and that you can know by ovulation study. Ovulation study is performed under the supervision of a gynecologist. For gall stones, surgical intervention is required generally. Medicine is not of much help. | <s>[INST] Description: Q.

Description: Suggest treatment for mouth breathing due to enlarged adenoids in a child | Patient: We are living in Bangalore and my 4 year old son have enlarged Adenoid (for last year and half). Due to this he s prone to cold and his body resistance to infection is little low. We consulted few ENT specialists w.r.t removal of enlarged Adenoid via surgery. We got mixed opinions on that. As I understand Adenoid is first level of defense in the respiratory track and it s removal can have unfavorable consequences in longer run. Also there s chance of getting it back between age 6-8 yrs. We are following Homeopathy & Ayurvedic treatment (off and on) for last year or so. My son is some-what better w.r.t frequency of getting infections. But still he snores a lot and breaths with open-mouth most of the times. We are just worried if this prolong mouth-breathing will do some damage to his internal organs and ears (due to some-what frequent chest & ear infection). | Doctor: Hi, Your child sleeps with mouth open, this means that the tonsils are quite large at the age of 4 years. If there is difficulty in breathing or not able to swallow anything then the child should be operated. Tonsillectomy is a common operation and there are some minor complications like nasal discharge, sorethroat, ear ache, but these symptoms usually subside over 3 weeks. In my opinion, you should go for tonsillectomy. I hope this has helped you. Take care.

Description: Can cold, cough, runny nose causing eating and sleeping difficulties be treated? | Patient: Dear sir my son is 7 yes old. He is suffering from cold & cough from long time...almost by birth. Every now n then he has continuous cough or runny nose. He is not able to speak, eat or sleep properly. We have taken opinion of 6-7 pediatricians. Every one says he has allergy. Doctors prescribed him ascoril syrup montair tablet n asthalin nebuliser in case of severe conditions. He feels good only after taking nebulizer. Pl advise what to do? How to get rid of this cough...and pl tell us is asthalin safe for my son to give once a day ? | Doctor: Cough and cold are common in children. It is basically a viral infection and generally associated with an allergic reaction. Some children are more prone to catch cold. However, the propensity gradually comes down with age.Give the child steam inhalation as an alternative to nebulisation. Continue giving montair LC (monteleukast + levocetirizine) during the episodes. Asthalin contains salbutamol that reduces the bronchospasm that causes the wheezing. You need not worry. It is safe to be given to children. Give it as an inhaler using a spacer device when the episodes of cold occur. | <s>[INST] Description: Can cold, cough, runny nose causing eating and sleeping difficulties be treated?

Description: What causes shortness of breath while doing tasks? | Patient: Hi I am a 22 year old Asian woman and I have noticed that I am becoming increasingly short of breath after doing small tasks such as walking around the house, showering, going up and down the stairs. I am also pretty sure that I have a murmur in my pulmonary area (it sounds systolic but I m not 100% sure. I am still just a medical student). I also get palpitations infrequently, but when I do it is usually when I am at rest not stressed or doing anything in particular. The most bothersome thing is the shortness of breath. it does get relieved when I sit and rest for a bit though. I have noticed it for a while and it is not very severe but it is definitely more noticeable now. I am just not sure what to make of all this. any help would be appreciated | Doctor: Thanks for your question on HCM.In my opinion you should investigate yourself to rule out pulmonary and cardiac cause.In your case possibility of cardiac causes like valvular heart disease are more as you are having murmur too.Pulmonary diseases like asthma and bronchitis can also cause such symptoms. So I give you plan of action.1. First consult cardiologist and get done ECG and 2D Echo to rule out valvular heart disease.2. If this is normal than consult pulmonologist and get done chest x ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test) to rule out asthma and bronchitis. 3. If all of the above are normal than it must be anxiety related. | <s>[INST] Description: What causes shortness of breath while doing tasks?

Description: Is biopsy test the only way to confirm prostrate cancer? | Patient: hi...saw my urologist today..PSA has been erratic for a few years up and down. Today it was the highest it s been at 4.98. The digital exam was normal. Soft and smooth he said. We re going to retest in 6 weeks and he says no sex or masturbation 2 weeks before the blood test. Thoughts? How can we tell if it s BPH instead of cancer or is there no clear cut way unless you have a biopsy? | Doctor: PSA levels upto 4 is perfectly alright. BPH patients show upto 10 which is also ok. the PSA levels are only indicative of the prognosis and the extent of the disease but are never diagnostic and confirmatory. Malignant changes give a hard palpation on examination. But according to reports PSA levels greater than 40 are more likely to be Malignant. Biopsy are always diagnostic. If you are willing for a invasive procedure go for a biopsy. | <s>[INST] Description: Is biopsy test the only way to confirm prostrate cancer? [/INST] Doctor: PSA levels upto 4 is perfectly alright.

Anticholinergic spray like ipratropium can be taken in your case to help with nasal congestion however you shouldnt take any medication with pseudo-ephedrine because they are associated with malformations in pregnancy especially during the first trimester.2-regarding the feeling that you will stop breathing there are two main factors for it : 1- your tonsils are enlarged making your airway narrow 2- your nasal discharge can go backwards and these secretions can block you airway, taking anticholinergic nasal spary in addition to elevation of the head during sleep will help remarkably in this symtomsI want to reassure you that this is not a serious medical condition and it is most likely self limited.Best regards | <s>[INST] Description: How to treat nasal congestion and burning sensation in the throat?

Description: Q. I feel pain and irritation in eyes after wearing contact lens for 14 hours. What shall I do? | Patient: Hello doctor, I am out on a business trip. Yesterday, after 14 hours flight in which I wore my contacts (which are 30 days disposable Air Optix ) for about 20 straight hours, I took them out. After that, the vision in my right eye became cloudy and blurry but no pain. No issues with my left eye. It was difficult to get the contact out of my right eye. It was somewhat stuck to it. I just woke up and the vision is a little better in my right eye, not quite as cloudy and blurry (but still not normal). But now there is some pain and irritation. This is after about six hours of sleep. Is this something that warrants me getting immediately back to my place to see my eye doctor or can I wait to see him when I get back (early next week)? I do have some Prednisolone pills with me that I have been taking for a sinus infection. Presumably, those would help with the eye swelling if that is an interim option? | Doctor: Hello. This might be due to dry eyes. The contact lens should be worn maximum for 8 to 12 hours only. The contact lens wear for a long time also cuts down the oxygen supply to cornea, which gets oxygen from the atmosphere. If the eyes are not red, discharge, watering you can continue wearing contact lens. If there are redness wear spectacles. You can use Teardrops four times a day. You can continue your treatment for sinus infection. Do as told above and let me know. | <s>[INST] Description: Q. I feel pain and irritation in eyes after wearing contact lens for 14 hours.

Description: What causes rashes and black spots with discharge from it? | Patient: hi. I was diagnosed with genital herpes several years ago .recently I had an affair and I noticed shortly after I was beginning to break out in rashes across my chest and dark spots across my hands and feet which disappear and reappear frequently. I self medicated with amoxicillin 500 two pills a day for 6days. I do believe i may have already had some sort of bac. infection because i noticed a significant increase in energy in my regular daily activities after taking the meds. Yet I notice I still have a discharge and rashes on my body. what concern should I have | Doctor: My concern is that you have secondary syphilis. You've already had one STD, which puts you are at risk for another, especially now with the recent affair. Secondary syphilis means the syphilis germ has been in your body awhile and is now spreading. It typically presents with many different types of rashes. Syphilis may respond to penicillin, which amoxicillin is a form of, but unless you receive an adequate treatment for a longer period of time, you will not get rid of it. I recommend you see your doctor and get tested for syphilis, and get the appropriate therapy if you have it. Hope this helps. | <s>[INST] Description: What causes rashes and black spots with discharge from it? [/INST] Doctor: My concern is that you have secondary syphilis.

Description: Are frequent fevers signs of infections? | Patient: Hello Doctor. My mom has a fever. A week ago she was prescribed by her doctor to take a water pill and another prescription to lower her blood pressure because it was quite high. A few days later, when the temperature got very hot, she felt dizzy and fell to the ground. Her temperature was high. She had a fever of a 101. We cooled her down and gave her tylenol. She s now complaining that her legs are weak and she cannot stand without help or walk. Her fever leaves and then comes back after she eats. I m thinking that it s some kind of viral infection that she has or it s some kind of bad side affect from the new medication. We wanted to bring her to Emergency but she refuses. We bargained with her and she said that she will go tomorrow in the morning. I was just wondering if the symptoms that I have stated could be some kind of virus and would she need antibiotics? | Doctor: Hi,Thanks for posting the query, I would suggest you to get her blood examination done.Take the medications for blood pressure regularly.With the blood reports get the checkup done by a Physician.Take care! | <s>[INST] Description: Are frequent fevers signs of infections?

Description: Suggest treatment for asthma in kid | Patient: My 6 yr old has chronic asthma, mostly activity induced. She takes a daily control med and has rescue med to be used prior to physical exertion. She is complaining she couldn't breath but doesn't appear to be having difficulty. She said her heart feels like its racing. Her pulse is 128. Should I give her the rescue med? I know this can also increase her heart rate. | Doctor: Hello.Thank you for asking at HCM.I went through your query and would like to make following suggestions for your daughter:1. It is true that rescue medication for asthma can increased heart rate. So if her pulse rate is 128, it should be given under doctor's guidance.2. If she does not appear to be in difficulty and she complaints of not being able to breath, she could have nasal obstruction. I would like to know whether she has any nose symptoms - running nose, sneezing, nasal congestion, etc.In that case, treating the nasal congestion would help her rather than rescue asthma medication..Hope above suggestions will help you.Wish her the best of the health.Thank you & Regards. | <s>[INST] Description: Suggest treatment for asthma in kid [/INST] Doctor: Hello.Thank you for asking at HCM.I went through your query and would like to make following suggestions for your daughter:1.

Description: Q. How can I reduce my blood pressure without medicines? Please suggest. | Patient: Hi doctor, My BP is normal. But when I go to a doctor, my BP becomes high. I checked for two times, and my BP was found to be high. I am not taking any medicines. My ECG is normal. How can I reduce my BP? Please suggest. | Doctor: Hi. The standard BP (blood pressure) ranges between 110 by 70 mmHg to 120 by 80 mmHg. I think your BP is within the range and any reading above this normal range is considered to be abnormal or high. High BP can be temporary or transient depending upon the triggers. A person can have high blood pressure if the BP remains consistently and persistently high for one to two weeks. In this case, tests like ECG (electrocardiography) can be done before the medications are given. You can reduce blood pressure by reducing the intake of salt, fatty foods, do a lot of exercises, and have a good sleep. Be relaxed. | <s>[INST] Description: Q.
