I've been dealing with gynecomastia and want to know which specialist I should see for this. What's the usual treatment process would I need surgery or are there newer options with faster recovery and minimal scarring? If surgery is the way, what type of doctor should I consult for it?

For gynecomastia, you should consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon for surgical treatment or a cosmetic surgeon, or an endocrinologist if you suspect hormonal imbalance is a factor. Surgery is often the most effective solution, with liposuction and mastectomy being the main procedures. Newer, less invasive techniques offer faster recovery and minimal scarring.

I'm dealing with a Vitamin D3 deficiency and my doctor prescribed some Vitamin D3 capsules from Mankind that I'm supposed to take weekly. But after taking them, I've been feeling like my head is heavier and I'm constantly thirsty. Is it normal to feel this way? Could there be a problem with how I'm taking them, or is there a better way to boost my Vitamin D3 levels quickly? Any advice would be great.

For a 20mm kidney stone, medication alone may not be effective. Consult your urologist or nephrologist for alternative treatment options. They may recommend: - Alpha-blockers (e.g., Tamsulosin) to help pass the stone - Potassium citrate to help dissolve the stone - Pain management medication (e.g., analgesics) Surgical options, such as lithotripsy or ureteroscopy, may also be considered.
