I've noticed something odd with my stomach latelylike the left side is getting bigger than the right. During the day it's fine, but at night it feels like it's full of air and can be kind of noisy and annoying. And when I try to sleep, it's causing a really uncomfortable inner temperature increase, like my body's overheating and it makes me feel weak. Any idea what might be going on?

View allI'm experiencing a burning sensation after I pass stools, and it's happened twice just last week. The stool seems normal, and it's usually after I've had some spicy food. Should I be worried about this, or is it just the spicy food causing it?
Chondromalacia patella, also known as runner's knee, is a condition where the cartilage on the underside of the kneecap deteriorates and becomes soft. Unfortunately, chondromalacia patella is not permanently curable . The good news is that symptoms can be managed with treatment, and in some cases, people can experience significant relief. However, the condition can be progressive, meaning it can worsen over time if not properly managed. Given that you've been under treatment for over a year and haven't experienced the desired relief, it may be worth exploring alternative treatment options or seeking a second opinion from a specialist. In terms of adjusting your lifestyle, it's great that you're thinking proactively. Considering your history with sports, you may need to modify your activities to reduce stress on your knee joint. Low-impact exercises like cycling or swimming might be more suitable options for you.

Moving to a new country can be challenging, especially when managing a medical condition like ADHD. In India, you'll find several medications available for ADHD treatment. *Commonly prescribed medications* include: - __Methylphenidate__ (MPH): Available in immediate-release (IR), extended-release (ER), and long-acting (LA) formulations. - __Atomoxetine__ (ATX): A non-stimulant medication. - __Lisdexamfetamine__ (LDX): A stimulant medication, although its availability might be limited in India. - __Clonidine__: Sometimes prescribed off-label for ADHD treatment. To find a doctor in Kanchipuram, you can: 1. *Ask for referrals*: Reach out to friends, family, or colleagues who live in Kanchipuram for recommendations. 2. *Online directories*: Utilize online directories like Practo or Lybrate to find psychiatrists or neurologists in Kanchipuram. 3. *Contact your embassy*: Reach out to the U.S. Embassy in India for guidance on finding medical care in Kanchipuram. Regarding the cost of medication and appointments, it's difficult to provide an exact estimate without knowing the specific doctor or hospital you'll be visiting. However, you can expect the cost of ADHD medications in India to be lower compared to the U.S. Before your move, consider: 1. *Carrying a sufficient supply*: Bring a sufficient supply of your current medication, Vyvanse, to last you a few months. 2. *Obtaining a prescription*: Get a prescription from your current doctor that you can use in India. 3. *Researching Indian pharmacies*: Look into pharmacies in Kanchipuram that can provide you with the necessary medication.
