My father has central cervical stenosis and is partially paralyzed. A month ago, he developed a scrotal abscess that needed drainage. His sugar levels are too high for surgery, and the doctors say antibiotics aren't working because of his uncontrolled diabetes. What can we do in this situation? I'm really worried and don't know what steps to take next.

I'm a 43-year-old IT professional dealing with obesity and I've noticed that my fasting blood glucose level is at 148. I'm already on 1 tab of Asomex LT for hypertension which I take every night before bed. Can you suggest any medication or advice to help manage my high blood glucose levels? I'm starting to get a bit worried about it.
Fasting blood glucose should not exceed 100mgdl. The initial drug of choice for first line treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus is Metformin 500mg. However, in order to get a more comprehensive understanding of your condition, you should undergo a panel of tests including FBS, PPBS, HbA1C, and URE. This data will help to curate a more effective treatment plan for you. You should also look into lifestyle modifications such as diet control, regular exercise, stress management and cessation of smokingdrinking (if you are a smokerdrinker).

Yes, there are non-surgical treatments for gynecomastia, including addressing underlying causes, medication adjustments, and lifestyle changes. If your gynecomastia is due to an underlying medical condition or medication, treating those issues can help resolve the breast enlargement.
