I'm feeling a bit concerned because I've developed multiple cysts on my left epididymis again. They were removed about three years ago, but now I can feel them coming back, and one of them is quite big, around 3cm by 2cm. It's not really painful, but there's definitely some discomfort. Should I be worried about these recurring epididymal cysts, and what might be causing them to grow back?

CT Value in COVID-19 RT-PCR Test

Interpretation

CT value: Cycle Threshold (CT) value represents the number of cycles needed to detect the virus.

Value of 21.27: A CT value of 21.27 indicates a relatively low viral load.

Implications

Infectivity: A lower CT value (like 21.27) may suggest a higher infectivity.

Treatment and isolation: Follow local health guidelines for COVID-19 treatment and isolation.

Next Steps

Consult a healthcare professional: Discuss your test results with a doctor to determine the best course of action.

Follow-up testing: Schedule follow-up tests as recommended by your healthcare provider.

My mom just got diagnosed with an 11mm kidney stone. Can this be treated with meds or will she need surgery? If surgery is needed, what kind would they recommend and how does it work?

For a kidney stone 11mm in size, treatment options often involve surgical procedures, as stones larger than 10mm are generally not expected to pass naturally. Common surgical techniques include Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL), Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS, and Ureteroscopic Lithotripsy (URSL). Medications can also play a role in managing pain and helping stones pass, but are less likely to be effective for larger stones.
