Question 1

I'm having some white discharge from my penis every morning and I'm really worried. There's no pain, but I'm not sure what's going on. Can you suggest any medication to help with this?

Accepted Answer

The elevated ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) levels indicate inflammation in the body.

Joint pains, leg pains, and finger pains suggest an inflammatory condition, such as Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) or Osteoarthritis (OA).

Normal sugar test results rule out diabetes as a cause for the symptoms.

Consult a Rheumatologist for further evaluation and diagnosis.

They may recommend additional tests, such as CRP, RF, and ANA, to determine the underlying cause.

Treatment will depend on the diagnosis, but may include anti-inflammatory medications, pain management, and lifestyle modifications.

Question 2

I'm currently in the hospital for a bad pain I was having, and they found a 5.7mm stone near my kidney. It shrank to 3mm, and now I'm thinking about switching to homeopathic treatment. Is it wise to leave the hospital for that? I've heard about this leaf called pather chatta that might help. Should I go for it, or could the pain come back?

Possible Causes_

1. _Insufficient lubrication_: As you mentioned, inadequate lubrication during sex can cause friction, leading to swelling and pain.
2. _Vaginal infections_: Yeast infections, bacterial vaginosis, or other infections can cause swelling, pain, and discomfort.
3. _Irritation or allergic reactions_: Exposure to certain products, such as soaps, douches, or condoms, can cause irritation and allergic reactions.
4. _Trauma or injury_: Physical trauma or injury to the vaginal area can cause swelling and pain.

_Self-Care and Remedies_

1. _Apply cold compresses_: A cold compress or an ice pack wrapped in a cloth can help reduce swelling and ease pain.
2. _Keep the area clean_: Gently clean the vaginal area with mild soap and lukewarm water. Avoid using harsh products or douching.
3. _Use lubricants_: Apply a water-based or silicone-based lubricant during sex to reduce friction and discomfort.
4. _Avoid irritants_: Refrain from using products that may cause irritation, such as scented soaps or bubble baths.

4. _Persistent symptoms_: If the symptoms persist or worsen despite self-care and remedies.

Question 3

I have a grade 1 varicocele on the left side do I really need surgery for this or are there other treatment options I can try first

Accepted Answer

A Grade 1 varicocele often doesn't require surgery, especially if it's not causing pain or other significant issues. Surgery might be considered if there are complications like reduced testicular function or infertility concerns. There are several other treatment options, including lifestyle adjustments and medications to manage pain and swelling
