I recently found out I have an inguinal hernia and my doctor recommended surgery. Are there other treatment options like Ayurveda or homeopathy that could work? I'm also worried about how this might affect my sexual life since I'm not married yet. What could happen if I don't get it treated now will it cause more problems later?
Craniotomy means opening the skull to remove a clot or relieve pressure; recovery depends on damage extent but early surgery improves outcomes.

I'm dealing with a pilonidal cyst that's started oozing a bit of pus and has been bleeding. I'm wondering if it's something that can heal on its own or if I should consider heading to the doctor's office. Is it something I should be worried about, or can it resolve without medical intervention?
A pilonidal cyst may not heal on its own and may require medical intervention. You can try keeping the area clean and dry, and using warm compresses to help with drainage. However, it is recommended to see a doctor for further evaluation and treatment. In some cases, antibiotics may be prescribed, and in severe cases, surgical drainage or removal of the cyst may be necessary.
