Question 1

I'm dealing with drooling for the past few months and I've heard it might be from worms in the stomach. I've had worm issues before, so I'm concerned this might be related. How can I put an end to this problem once and for all? Also, I've noticed a big gain in weight over the past couple of years. Could these be connected? What should I do?

Accepted Answer

Drooling may be related to various causes, and its important to get an accurate diagnosis from a healthcare provider.
Worm infestations are treatable with medications, but they are unlikely to be the direct cause of drooling.
For weight gain, a combination of dietary changes, physical activity, and medical consultation is necessary to manage the condition effectively.

Accepted Answer

decrease in kidney size can be a good sign, but it's essential to understand the context.

_Interpretation_

1. _Variation in measurement_: The 0.9cm difference in kidney size might be due to variations in measurement techniques or equipment between the two diagnostic centers.
2. _Spontaneous improvement_: In some cases, a decrease in kidney size can indicate spontaneous improvement or resolution of an underlying condition, such as a cyst or inflammation.
3. _No cause for concern_: Since all other parameters are normal, and you're not experiencing any symptoms, this decrease in kidney size might not be a cause for concern.

_Recommendations_

1. _Consult your doctor_: Discuss the ultrasound reports with your doctor to determine the best course of action.
2. _Monitor kidney function_: Regularly monitor your kidney function through blood tests (e.g., serum creatinine, eGFR) to ensure there are no underlying issues.
3. _Follow-up ultrasound_: Schedule a follow-up ultrasound in 6-12 months to monitor any changes in kidney size or function.

_When to Seek Immediate Attention_

1. _Severe symptoms_: If you experience severe symptoms, such as flank pain, hematuria, or fever.
2. _Abnormal kidney function_: If your kidney function tests reveal abnormal results.
3. _Rapid changes in kidney size_: If you notice rapid changes in kidney size or function.
