Why is my chest so bony with hyperthyroidism?
With hyperthyroidism, your metabolism speeds up, causing weight loss and sometimes making your collarbones or ribs more visible. It's not uncommon to feel this way, but we can help. I recommend you see a endocrinologist for a thorough evaluation and possibly some blood tests to check your thyroid levels. In the meantime, try to eat a balanced diet with extra protein and healthy fats to support your weight.

Recently my father diagnosed with diffused cerebral autrophy with chronic microangiopathic changes involving deep hemispheric white matter (fazekas Grade 2 white matter hyperintensities) Kindly suggest what to do ?
Currently there is no specific treatment for managing white matter lesions/hyperintensities. The goal is to treat the reason of the damage and cease the progression and worsening of the disease.
Depending on the reason of damage, the doctor will start you on blood pressure lowering or cholesterol lowering medicines.
In case you have a social habit such as smoking, then it is suggested to quit smoking at the earliest for preventing any further damage.
Consult a neurologist for further treatment.

Why is my penis retracting and barely visible?
There is a possibility that you may have a condition known as 'penis retraction'. This happens when the penis gets smaller and is not easily seen. One of the common causes is anxiety, stress, or cold temperatures. It is also important to check if there are any other medical reasons like Peyronie’s disease behind this problem. You can calm down, keep yourself warm, and see a urologist if it does not go away.

Sir i have been through testicular torsion surgery last week.. It has been around 8 days.. And today I have an urge to masturbate and i did it.. So is there any problem?
Generally after surgery, it's recommended to avoid any activities that can put strain or pressure on the surgical site to allow for proper healing. Engaging in sexual activities including masturbation could potentially impact the healing process, especially in the early stages of recovery. Consult your surgeon who performed the surgery for better guidance.

Is Diaformula effective for treating Type 2 diabetes in Uganda?
Managing type 2 diabetes typically involves lifestyle modifications, such as maintaining a balanced diet, regular exercise, and sometimes medication. Medications can assist in controlling blood sugar levels. Regarding Diaformula, there is limited clinical evidence to support its effectiveness, so it’s crucial to evaluate such treatments carefully. Common symptoms of diabetes include increased thirst, frequent urination, and fatigue. I recommend discussing any new medication with your endocrinologist to ensure it aligns with your overall treatment plan. They can offer personalized guidance and support as you manage your condition.

Could my muscle pain near clavicle and neck cracking be related?
You might have muscle pain coupled with pressure on the neck and the shoulder region. Muscles are likely to be tensed or strained bringing about such signs. The issue of muscle dropping below your clavicle and squeezing your neck could result from sitting or standing with drooping shoulders. You can ease them by keeping the right body posture always, engaging in mild stretches that won’t hurt much, and using warm towels on those affected spots.

Wearing Acrylic Nails for Tonsillectomy
Acrylic nails aren't recommended before tonsillectomy surgery. Those fake nails could harbor germs, making hand hygiene tricky. During tonsillectomy, doctors remove tonsils, often due to infections or breathing issues. Clean hands prevent surgical site infections, so natural nails are only for this procedure. Wait until you've recovered fully before getting acrylics again.
