It seems to me that you have developed herpes zoster infection, but a dermatologist would judge better, so refer this page to find doctors - Dermatologists in India. If you find your diabetes interfering with or complicating your conditions then you can contact me anytime as well.

Male | 44

Stem cell therapy is helpful for treatment of type 2 diabetes, but it is not yet FDA approved and is under clinical trials. I advise you to consult a doctor in person. Based on proper evaluation , he will suggest whether stem cell therapy is right for you and discuss the treatment options that you can consider for managing your diabetes. I hope this proved useful.

i am 17 years old and im not sure if ive hit puberty. i have pubic hair but no facial or chest hair, and my penis and testicles have not grown, this is emberassing for me.

Male | 17

It's okay to be upset by the changes in your body in puberty. If there's hair down there, puberty has started. Other things like beards or chest hair might take longer to show up. It's also fine if your penis and testicles are kind of small right now - they grow at different rates for everyone.

I have diagnosed with hyperthyroidism in October 2023 , i get my periods on time till now but only problem is the flow change its very light and scanty only lasts for about 2 days earlier it was normal flow with 5 day cycle I am very irritated because of this , I live in hostel so when I get home back it was gradually become a little normal but then again the same when came back .pls guide some medications to normal it

Female | 19

Hormonal imbalances with hyperthyroidism can alter your cycle. This may lead to light, scanty menstruation. The good news is that when you return home, it becomes normal again but changes after some time. For you, adjusting medications could be useful in balancing hormones as well as enhancing flow during menses. Have a talk with your doctor about this.

sir muje calcium ki kami hai

Male | 25

If you feel tired, your muscles are cramping, or you are suffering from weakness, it may be due to the low calcium levels. If there is a consumption of fewer products from the group of “calcium-rich food” that includes if you prefer dairy products, it can cause calcium levels in your blood to fall. To get over it, it is better to introduce more milk, cheese, yogurt, or leafy greens into your daily menu.

Iam 43 year age and my tsh vale is 15 Which medican i use

Female | 43

The test result of TSH level 15 which is abnormally high implies that your thyroid is not functioning as well as it should. This can cause feelings of fatigue, weight increase, and feeling cold. More often it is caused by insufficient thyroid hormone production as the thyroid gland fails to produce plenty of its hormones. Consult a doctor for proper treatment plan.

Age:- 48 yrs Male, Got tested HbA1c n reported as>10% , & Mean blood glucose level is 263.3 mg/ dl.

Male | 48

It looks like the blood sugar level of this 48-year-old person is extremely high. If the HbA1c is over 10% and the average blood glucose level is 263.3 mg/dL, it means the diabetes is not well controlled. Common symptoms include frequent urination, thirst, weight loss, and tiredness. This could be due to not taking medications properly or not following a healthy diet. To manage this, eat a balanced diet, take their medicines as prescribed, and exercise regularly.

Hi .dr Please tell me that asghand testosterone increase krta women ka bhi? Mera testosterone already zyda but mery herbalist nay herbs ma asghand bhi include ki .mujy sumj nai a rhi kya yeh shi ha?

Female | 23

Asghand, also known as ashwagandha, can affect hormone levels, including testosterone. In women with higher testosterone, it might be beneficial but can also lead to unwanted symptoms such as increased hair growth or mood changes. It's essential to monitor your body's response when introducing new herbs. I recommend discussing this with a healthcare provider to tailor your approach, ensuring it's safe and suitable for your health needs. A professional can offer personalized advice based on your specific situation, ensuring you achieve your wellness goals effectively.

My mother is suffering from thyroid ,she had a mild stroke before some days now she is in bed .A physiotherapy is done every day at home.but she is very weak.we have done her thyroid test this is here T3-111.5 T4-9.02 TSH-7.110. Please let me know the exact power of her medicine.

Female | 68

It appears to me that she suffers from hypothyroidism because of a lack of energy amongst other symptoms. A high TSH means that the thyroid is not producing enough hormones. Possibly, she may have to adjust the dosage of her thyroid medication to correspond with these levels. Please ensure that she adheres to taking her drugs regularly as well as continuing physiotherapy for all-round healing.

Planing to take multivitamin tablet before going to sleep, every night. Is there any risky side effects? And if there is no risk Can i know how much dosage should i take as a 16 year old, 49kg boy.

Many people­ think about their health, like taking a multivitamin. Having it be­fore sleep is usually ok. But, you can't take­ too much. A 16-year-old boy weighing 49kg should follow the dosage­ instructions carefully. Overdoing certain vitamins may cause­ issues. For example, an upse­t stomach or headaches. If you notice anything unusual afte­r taking the multivitamin, like stomach pain or rashes, stop right away. Talk to a doctor.

Female | 26

It’s normal for their cholesterol levels to go up. Moreover, the thyroid medication you are on may be a contributing factor. Keep track of your cholesterol since it can sometimes be risky. Ensure you eat well and stay physically fit too. You should see a doctor about any worries you might have.

Iam 36 years old. Two days back my lips vibrating.. One hour there gone.. Then today morning same vibrating lips.. Not stop.. What is the reason.. I have thiroid and vitamin d deficiency..

Female | Anumol jeejo

Vibrating or twitching lips can be linked to several factors, including stress, fatigue, or low nutrient levels, especially with your existing thyroid condition and vitamin D deficiency. These spasms may also signal dehydration or anxiety. It’s reassuring that they often resolve on their own. However, to ensure your well-being, please consider consulting a healthcare provider. They can assess your overall health, check your vitamin levels, and provide tailored advice. Staying hydrated, managing stress, and ensuring a balanced diet are beneficial steps you can take.

Female | 23

You are suffering from PCOD which is responsible for weight gain, face acne, and excess facial hair growing from your face and additional regions on your body. PCOD is a hormonal imbalance that can cause these symptoms. Consuming a well-planned meal, doing physical activity regularly, and dealing with stress properly are also ways to eliminate the problem. Consult a doctor for further opinion.

I noticed unexpected weight loss of my body during last few months. Report tell us that haemoglobin is some sort in the body and ECG report suggests that everything is normal. One more concern is that in night, don't sleep comes..??

Male | 52

Excessive weight loss and too little sleep are some reasons that could be due to worry, an unhealthy diet, or maybe some other ailments such as hyperthyroidism. It is great to hear that your hemoglobin is within limits and your ECG is normal, yet it is probably useful to chat with your doctor to get an idea about what your dearth of sleep stems from. Don't forget to tell your doctor about all your symptoms and worries, so they can help you understand the best solution to your problem.
