I'm a 37-year-old male who developed a urethral stricture after laparoscopic surgery for a urethral stone. Right now, it's just starting and I only have minor issues like slight difficulty passing urine. I really don't want to go through another surgery are there any homeopathic treatments that could help manage this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
homeopathic treatments may provide some relief for certain conditions, there is currently no scientific evidence to support their use for urethral strictures. Urethral strictures are typically managed through surgical interventions like dilation, urethrotomy, or reconstructive surgery (urethroplasty). Given the potential for progression and complications, it's crucial to consult with a urologist to discuss the best course of action for your specific condition.

I'm alone with my father-in-law since my husband is out of town. He has an enlarged prostate, and I'm worried because he doesn't sleep well at night. I thought about giving him Avil 25, but I read online that it's not safe for someone with an enlarged prostate. I'm really concerned about what I should do. Do you think it's okay to give him this medication, or should I consider something else? Please let me know what would be best.
Avil (Pheniramine) should be used with caution in patients with prostate enlargement due to its potential to worsen urinary retention. It would be best to avoid giving Avil 25 to your father-in-law without consulting a healthcare professional. Instead, you can try non-medical interventions to help him sleep, such as creating a calming bedtime routine, ensuring a comfortable sleeping environment, and avoiding stimulants like caffeine close to bedtime. If his sleep troubles persist, it would be advisable to seek medical advice for a more suitable sleep aid.

my foreskin doesn't pull back and it's really uncomfortable should i get surgery for this and how much would it cost
If your foreskin doesn't pull back and is causing discomfort, it could be phimosis, a condition where the foreskin is too tight to retract. While some cases of phimosis resolve on their own, surgery might be necessary if conservative treatments don't work. The cost of surgery can vary depending on the procedure and your location, but you can expect to pay between ‚Çπ5,000 and ‚Çπ35,000 in India
