Question 1

Ive been diagnosed with mild bilateral gynecomastia after seeing a doctor recently. Is there any way to treat this naturally or do I need surgery? If surgery is necessary, how much does it cost and whats the recovery like?

Accepted Answer

Mild bilateral gynecomastia can be addressed through natural methods, such as weight loss, exercise, and hormonal balance, but results may vary; surgical options, like male breast reduction surgery, can be more effective, with costs ranging from ?50,000 to ?2 lakhs (approximately $650-$2,600 USD) per breast, depending on factors like location, surgeon's expertise, and hospital fees.

Question 2

Hi doctor, my grandfather had COVID pneumonia and his HRCT score was 12/25. He was discharged 40 days ago but for the past 5-6 days, his oxygen level drops to around 92-93 while he's sleeping, and then goes back up to 96-97 when he wakes up. Should w...

Accepted Answer

It's not uncommon for oxygen levels to fluctuate slightly during sleep, especially after recovering from COVID-19 pneumonia. However, if the oxygen level drops below 90%, it could indicate a need for further monitoring. The elevated D-dimer suggests some ongoing inflammation or clotting risk, so its important to keep in touch with your healthcare provider to assess if further tests or treatments are needed.

Question 3

Hi Doc, my doctor mentioned that my child is allergic to climate change. We're giving her nebulization for now, but shes still coughing a lot. Is this normal? Should we be doing something else or giving her any other medication to help with the coughing?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like your doctor suspects an allergy triggered by changes in the weather, which can worsen symptoms like coughing. Nebulization should help with breathing, but if the coughing persists, it's important to follow up for additional treatments or medications to manage the allergy better.

Question 4

Hi, Im using Duolin (2ml) and Budecort (3ml) for my nebulization. Can I mix them together in one round, or should I be using them separately in different rounds? Would appreciate some clarity on this.

Accepted Answer

You can mix Duolin (2ml) and Budecort (3ml) in one nebulization session, as they are commonly used together for combined bronchodilator and anti-inflammatory effects. Just ensure you follow your doctor's instructions and the prescribed dosage for your condition.

Question 5

Ive been taking medication for tuberculosis for the past 6 months, but my latest x-ray still shows signs of TB. What should I do if the treatment doesnt seem to be working after all this time?

Accepted Answer

If your X-ray still shows signs of tuberculosis after 6 months of treatment, we'll reassess your treatment plan. It may involve extending your medication course or switching to a different regimen. We'll work together to ensure the best approach to fully eliminate the infection.

Question 6

Ive been having breathing problems for the last 5 years and have been using an inhaler along with Montair LC tablets. Is this something Ill need to manage long-term, or should I be looking into other treatments?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you've been managing a chronic respiratory issue for the past five years, using an inhaler and Montair LC tablets to help with symptoms. It's important to continue following your prescribed treatment plan, but if you're noticing any changes or worsening of symptoms, it may be worth discussing with your doctor to adjust your management strategy.
