I've been feeling anxious for the past month and have been taking meds plus doing yoga to manage it. I'm also scheduled for deviated septum surgery soon and that's adding to my worries how can I handle the anxiety around the procedure and recovery?

To manage anxiety before and after deviated septum surgery, consider a multi-pronged approach. Maintain your current anxiety medication and yoga routine, but also explore other coping strategies like stress-reducing activities, support groups, and open communication with your healthcare team.

View allCan you explain if homeopathy can really cure OCD and how long it usually takes to see results? I've been on homeopathic medicine for 5 years without success, and now I'm on allopathic medicine, which seems to be helping more. Is sticking with allopathy a better option for managing OCD?
It's essential to consult a gynecologist for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, consider the following: Maintain good hygiene: Clean the area with mild soap and lukewarm water. Avoid scratching or popping the pimples, as this can lead to infection. Use a gentle, fragrance-free soap and avoid scented products. Apply a topical antibiotic cream or an antifungal cream, as advised by your doctor. Schedule an appointment with a gynecologist as soon as possible to determine the underlying cause.

I'm really worried about my dad. He's 59 and has been having trouble getting a good night's sleep. He was given Alprax 0.25 by the doctor, and he's supposed to take half of that, 0.125mg, each night for 10 days, then stop. He's only taken it for two days so far, but he's already thinking about quitting it now. Is it safe for him to just stop taking it? I'm really concerned about possible withdrawal symptoms like seizures. Can you give some advice on this?
Your dad can stop taking Alprax 0.125mg after just 2 days without significant risk of severe withdrawal symptoms like seizures, as the duration of use was short and the dose was low, but he may still experience mild symptoms like anxiety or insomnia, which should resolve on their own within a few days.
