My recent USG showed an enlarged prostate at 75cc along with fatty liver and cholelithiasis. I might need surgery any idea about the cost and recommendations for a good hospital?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The USG findings of an enlarged prostate at 75cc, along with fatty liver and cholelithiasis (gallstones), indicate multiple health concerns. The enlarged prostate, specifically benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), is common in older men and can cause urinary issues. Fatty liver, also known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), is often linked to metabolic issues and can progress to more serious liver problems if not addressed. Cholelithiasis, or gallstones, can cause pain and digestive issues and may require medical intervention. It's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and management plan for all three conditions

I've been having this dull burning feeling at the top of my penis after I pee and I'm sure it's not an STD since I've never been married or had sex. There's also a slight burning in the hairy area above my penis on the outside. Do you have any idea what this could be or how I can get rid of it? I've been taking homeopathic medicine for internal hemorrhoidscould that be causing the problem?
The dull burning sensation youre experiencing could be due to mild irritation or an inflammation in the area, possibly from sweating or friction. Its good that you're being cautious, but homeopathy for hemorrhoids shouldnt affect this. Try to keep the area clean and dry, avoid tight clothing, and use a soothing cream like aloe vera. If it persists or worsens, a doctors consultation would be helpful.

I'm a 27-year-old guy from Chennai and I've been feeling like my penile frenulum seems a bit too short. I recently heard about frenuloplasty, but I'm not sure where to start. Could you advise on who would be the right specialist to consult and where I might be able to get this procedure done?
Dengue is not contagious in the classical sense, as it cannot be spread directly from person to person. However, it can be transmitted through: 1. Mosquito bites: The primary vector for dengue is the Aedes mosquito, which feeds on the blood of infected individuals and then transmits the virus to others. 2. Blood transfusions: In rare cases, dengue can be transmitted through blood transfusions from an infected donor. 3. Organ transplantation: Dengue can also be transmitted through organ transplantation from an infected donor. To prevent dengue, take the following precautions: 1. *Eliminate mosquito breeding sites*: Remove standing water from containers, flowerpots, and other areas around your home. 2. *Use mosquito repellents*: Apply insect repellents containing DEET, picaridin, or oil of lemon eucalyptus to exposed skin and clothing. 3. *Wear protective clothing*: Wear long-sleeved shirts, long pants, and socks when outdoors, especially during peak mosquito hours. 4. *Use mosquito nets*: If you're sleeping outdoors or in an area without screens, use a mosquito net to cover your bed. 5. *Install window and door screens*: Make sure screens are in good condition and free of holes. 6. *Use air conditioning*: Mosquitoes are less active in cooler temperatures, so using air conditioning can help reduce the risk of bites. 7. *Get vaccinated*: If you live in or plan to travel to areas with high dengue transmission, consider getting vaccinated. The Dengvaxia vaccine is available in some countries for individuals aged 9-45. Symptoms of dengue typically appear within 3-14 days after being bitten by an infected mosquito. The symptoms can range from mild to severe and may include: 1. *Fever*: High temperature, usually above 104F (40C). 2. *Severe headache*: Pain is often described as piercing or burning. 3. *Pain behind the eyes*: Eye pain is common, especially when moving the eyes. 4. *Joint and muscle pain*: Pain and stiffness in the joints, muscles, and bones. 5. *Rash*: A red, patchy rash may appear on the skin, usually 2-5 days after the onset of fever. 6. *Nausea and vomiting*: Some people may experience stomach upset, nausea, and vomiting. 7. *Fatigue*: Feeling extremely tired and weak. In severe cases, dengue can lead to: 1. *Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF)*: A rare but life-threatening complication characterized by severe bleeding, low platelet count, and blood plasma leakage. 2. *Dengue shock syndrome (DSS)*: A severe complication of DHF, characterized by a sudden drop in blood pressure, leading to shock and potentially life-threatening complications.
