Focal gliosis in the right posterior periventricular region indicates:
- Gliosis: Scarring or reactive change in brain tissue
- Periventricular region: Area surrounding the ventricles (fluid-filled spaces) in the brain
Possible causes:
- Past injury or infection
- Stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA)
- Demyelinating diseases (e.g., multiple sclerosis)
- Tumors or cysts
Treatment and seriousness depend on underlying cause:
- If caused by past injury or infection, treatment might focus on managing symptoms.
- If related to demyelinating disease or tumor, treatment may involve disease-modifying therapies or surgery.
Recommendation:
Consult a neurologist or neurosurgeon for:
- Detailed evaluation
- Determining underlying cause
- Developing a personalized treatment plan

View allI'm wondering how soon I can have sex now that my kidney stent has been removed. I had a ureteroscopy and laser surgery on May 11, 2017, to take out a stone from my kidney, and they left a stent in for two weeks. It was just removed yesterday, and my urine is mostly clear now, with just a bit of blood. Can you advise me on whether it's safe to resume sexual activity and if there are any precautions I should take?
After the removal of your kidney stent, its generally safe to resume sexual activity once any discomfort or bleeding has subsided and you're feeling comfortable. However, it's important to listen to your bodyif there's still slight bleeding or discomfort, its best to wait a few more days. Always consult your doctor if you have any concerns.

Ive been feeling a bit self-conscious about my flaccid penis sizeit seems small to me. But when I get an erection, it almost doubles in size. My testis seem normal, but the fluctuating size of my flaccid penis sometimes makes me worry. Some days it looks normal, and other days it seems very small. Is this something I should be concerned about?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition known as a retractile penis, where the penis appears smaller than usual when flaccid but increases in size upon erection. This can be a source of concern for many men, but it is important to know that it is not typically a sign of any serious medical issue. However, if this is causing you distress or affecting your confidence, you may consider speaking with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance. In terms of medications, there are no specific drugs to address this issue. However, if you are looking to improve erectile function, you may consider medications such as Viagra (Sildenafil) or Cialis (Tadalafil) under the guidance of a healthcare provider. These medications can help improve blood flow to the penis and enhance erectile function. It is important to use these medications at the prescribed dosage and follow the recommendations of your healthcare provider.
