I took a pregnancy test and there were two lines, but one of them was really faint. Should I take this as a positive result or a negative one?

I've been dealing with some issues down there and I'm really worried. There's a small pimple on the tip of my vagina that's super annoying and sometimes it even hurts. Plus, I've been experiencing a lot of dryness, irritation, and this extra white discharge. I'm not sure what's going on, but I could really use some advice on what to do. Any thoughts?

The cost of a hernia operation at Hinduja Hospital in Mumbai can range around 1 lac for laparoscopic hernioplasty . Other reputed hospitals in Mumbai may have similar pricing. As for the admission duration, patients typically stay in the hospital for 1-2 days after a laparoscopic hernia surgery. However, this may vary depending on individual cases and the doctor's advice. It's best to consult with a doctor or the hospital directly for a more accurate estimate of costs and admission duration.

I'm experiencing this strange feeling in my mouth; it's like the skin is tightening and my tongue feels really sensitive. Could this be some kind of infection from having oral sex, especially if my partner has a UTI or an STD?

The sensation of skin tightening and a sensitive tongue could be due to a variety of causes, including irritation, allergic reactions, or infections. While some STDs can affect the mouth, such as oral herpes or syphilis, a UTI is unlikely to cause these symptoms. Its best to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.
