Question 1

I had an incident last year where I was playing cricket and got hit in my right testicle by a ball. I experienced pain for about two weeks and used cold water to help manage it. The pain has gone now, but I've noticed that my right testicle hangs lower than my left one. Is this something I should be worried about? Do you think I need to see a doctor?

Accepted Answer

I understand your concern about the injury to your right testicle.

Possible Causes of the Difference in Testicle Position

1. Hematoma or Blood Accumulation: After the injury, blood may have accumulated in the scrotum, causing the testicle to hang lower.
2. Testicular Atrophy: The injury may have caused damage to the testicle, leading to atrophy (shrinkage) or a change in its position.
Yes, it's highly recommended that you consult a doctor, preferably a urologist, to assess the situation and provide guidance.

Question 2

I'm dealing with this macular amyloidosis and it's really getting on my nerves. I've got these pigmentation issues popping up on my upper back, legs, and hands, and now it's spreading to my neck too. The itching is just unbearable in these areas. Im really looking for some guidance on what kind of treatment I should go for. Is there any real cure for this?

Accepted Answer

Macular amyloidosis is a chronic skin condition that can be challenging to treat. To help manage the pigmentation and itching, I recommend using a topical corticosteroid cream such as Clobetasol propionate 0.05%. Apply a thin layer to the affected areas twice daily for up to 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Loratadine 10mg once daily to help with the itching. It is important to keep the skin well moisturized, so I suggest using a gentle moisturizer like Cetaphil. Avoid scratching the affected areas to prevent further irritation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

Question 3

My wife's got this recurring corn growth on her finger that we had removed at Nano Hospitals on B G Road about a month back, but it seems to be coming back in the same spot. I'm starting to get worried and thinking it's time to consult a proper physician. What should we do to make sure this doesn't keep happening?

Accepted Answer

The recurrence of the corn growth on your wife's finger after surgery at Nano Hospitals suggests that the underlying cause may not have been fully addressed; consult a dermatologist
