My 2-month-old baby was diagnosed with moderate hydronephrosis in the left kidney showing a dilated renal pelvis and mild cortical thinning, possibly due to PUJ obstruction. The ultrasound showed the left kidney is 5.5x2.4 cm with a 14mm AP diameter of the renal pelvis and slightly reduced cortical thickness. The right kidney looks normal. Do you think surgery is needed or are there other treatment options we should consider first?

For a 2-month-old with moderate hydronephrosis due to a possible ureteropelvic junction (PUJ) obstruction, initial treatment often involves watchful waiting and monitoring, along with strategies to prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs). Surgery may be considered if the condition worsens, kidney function is compromised, or if other complications arise

View allCan I give my 10-year-old son the dynapar tablet more than three times a day for his ear pain? Are there any side effects I should be worried about?
It's not safe to give Dynapar more than 3 times a day for a 10-year-old, as it may cause side effects like stomach irritation or kidney issues. Stick to the prescribed dosage, and if the pain persists, consult a doctor for further guidance.

I've noticed that my nipples are getting swollen, and they're soft to the touch. When I press them, they return to normal for a bit, but then they swell up again after a few minutes. I'm 16, and I'm wondering if this is just a part of puberty or something I should be concerned about. Also, I've felt small clots behind both nipples, but there's no pain. Is this normal?
