View allI've had gynecomastia under just my right nipple for the past 13 years it stays the same size but hurts when I press it. Does ayurveda offer any treatment options that don't involve surgery?
For gynecomastia, Ayurveda may offer herbal treatments or massage therapies to reduce breast size, but surgery is generally more effective if the condition persists.

I'm trying to understand my recent test results and I'm a bit worried. My Anti Thyroid Peroxidase antibody is over 1300, but my Anti Thyroglobulin antibody is within the normal range at 28. Also, my T3 is 1.26, TSH is 5.43, and T4 is 8.01, which are all within normal limits. But my Vitamin D levels are low at 12. What do these findings suggest? Should I consider getting a thyroid scan done?

My mom, who's 52, has been experiencing this burning sensation all over her body for about two months now. She's seen a couple of doctors, including a neurologist, and had tests done for sugar, BP, cholesterol, and nerves, but everything's coming back normal. The doctors recently told her she has hypothyroidism and she's been on medication for it for the last 25 days, but there's still no improvement. I'm really concerned and not sure what to do next. Could you offer any advice?
Since she has already consulted with a neurologist and undergone various tests which have come back normal, it may be worth considering neuropathic pain management. Medications such as Gabapentin (Neurontin) or Pregabalin (Lyrica) can be prescribed to help alleviate neuropathic pain. The dosage would depend on her individual condition and should be determined by her treating physician. Additionally, topical treatments like Capsaicin cream can also be used for localized relief. It's important to continue working closely with her healthcare provider to find the most effective treatment plan for her symptoms.
