I've been told that lipomas can't be treated with just meds and mine is right in the middle of my forehead. The doc mentioned surgery could be risky are there any other options I could explore?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Lipomas on the forehead typically require surgery, but if your doctor is concerned about the risks, other options like liposuction or steroid injections could be discussed. A second opinion could help clarify if surgery is necessary.

I've always been self-conscious about my nose it's bigger and wider than I'd like, and even though people say I'm good-looking, it bothers me a lot. Is rhinoplasty the only option to reshape it, or are there non-surgical alternatives? How much would it cost, and how do I find a skilled, trustworthy surgeon for this?
It's understandable to feel self-conscious about your nose, especially if you perceive it as bigger and wider than average. Many people share this concern, and it's often related to societal beauty standards that favor more slender noses. However, it's important to remember that beauty comes in many forms, and your nose, regardless of its size or shape, is a unique part of your face. There are ways to address these insecurities and cultivate a more positive self-image.

I'm getting married soon, and I'm worried because I think my hymen broke during a school sports activity. Is there a way to get it repaired before the wedding? Would love some guidance on this.
I recommend consulting with a gynecologist who can evaluate your condition and suggest the appropriate treatment. In some cases, a surgical procedure called hymenoplasty may be performed to repair the hymen. This procedure can be done using local anesthesia and usually takes about 30-45 minutes. After the procedure, it is important to follow post-operative care instructions provided by your doctor.
