I recently found out I have an inguinal hernia and my doctor recommended surgery. Are there other treatment options like Ayurveda or homeopathy that could work? I'm also worried about how this might affect my sexual life since I'm not married yet. What could happen if I don't get it treated now will it cause more problems later?

my hiv1 rna viral load result says target not detected does this mean im undetectable and is it safe to proceed with piles surgery now
An undetectable viral load test result means the amount of HIV was so low that the test was unable to detect any HIV or could only find a tiny trace. This result might also be written as 'not detected' or 'target not detected'. There is zero risk of HIV transmission during sex

I'm dealing with a pilonidal sinus and am debating between laser surgery, pilonidal plasty, or traditional surgery. I've heard that recovery might not be complete with laser surgery. Any advice on whether laser surgery is effective for this? I'm feeling a bit worried and would appreciate your guidance.
Both laser surgery (pilonidal laser treatment) and traditional surgery can be effective for pilonidal sinus. However, laser surgery may not always fully resolve the issue, and there's a chance of recurrence. Traditional surgery, while more invasive, typically offers a higher success rate for complete recovery. It's best to discuss with your doctor to determine the most suitable option for your condition.
