I've had a persistent cough for over two months now. It all began with painful swelling on the backs of my hands. I had a high fever that went away after taking medicine for five days, but the cough stuck around. Now I'm experiencing chest pain and shortness of breath with even a little activity, and the pain has moved to a sharp lung pain below my chest. I saw a pulmonologist, and my CT scan was normal, although my WBC count was a bit high. Today I went to a gynecologist because of lower abdomen pain and found out I have a left ovarian cyst. What could be going on? I'm really worried about how all these symptoms tie together. Is it something serious?

I've been dealing with some issues down there and I'm really worried. There's a small pimple on the tip of my vagina that's super annoying and sometimes it even hurts. Plus, I've been experiencing a lot of dryness, irritation, and this extra white discharge. I'm not sure what's going on, but I could really use some advice on what to do. Any thoughts?

The cost of a hernia operation at Hinduja Hospital in Mumbai can range around 1 lac for laparoscopic hernioplasty . Other reputed hospitals in Mumbai may have similar pricing. As for the admission duration, patients typically stay in the hospital for 1-2 days after a laparoscopic hernia surgery. However, this may vary depending on individual cases and the doctor's advice. It's best to consult with a doctor or the hospital directly for a more accurate estimate of costs and admission duration.

Tetanus Injection After a Cut: Guidance _Tetanus Risk Assessment:_ 1. _Dirty or rusty object_: Since the cut was from a kitchen knife, the risk of tetanus is relatively low. 2. _Blood exposure_: Blood was present, but this doesn't necessarily increase the tetanus risk. _Tetanus Injection Recommendations:_ 1. _Up-to-date tetanus vaccination_: If you've received a tetanus booster within the past 10 years, you likely don't need another injection. 2. _Clean and minor wound_: Given the cut is from a clean kitchen knife and is minor, a tetanus injection might not be necessary. _Precautions and Next Steps:_ 1. _Clean and dress the wound_: Immediately clean the cut with soap and water, apply antibiotic ointment, and cover with a bandage. 2. _Monitor for infection_: Watch for signs of infection, such as redness, swelling, increased pain, or pus.
