Question 3

Bumping into : something.  It is likely that she bumped into something. It should resolve over days to weeks, depending on the size of the bruise. It will also go through color changes. If she develops more bruises without trauma, she should see a doctor.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

Itching: I see hepatitis in your profile.  Hepatitis can cause elevated bilirubin which can cause itching.  Some meds cause itching, like narcotics. If you are itching without a rash, these are more likely.  If you have rash where you itch, get the rash diagnosed.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Maybe: Lupus is a complex autoimmune disease in which the body is attacking its own tissue.  Lupus is famous for affecting different people in different ways.  The effects can be so different from person to person that it does not even look like they have the same diagnosis. ANA is only a screening test that tells us more tests are needed. See a rheumatologist!

Question 9

i have some rashes on my hips and those are very itchy. i feel pain n burning sometimes. i can't even sit or sleep properly.  kindly help me out asap.

Accepted Answer

Hip rash,pain: Painful rash is seen in shingles, but it usually occurs on only one side of the body at a time. Noticeable itching with rash is more suggestive of an allergic reaction to something that comes in contact with your hips. A dermatologist is best qualified to evaluate, advise and treat you. In the meantime, try applying a cortisone type ointment and take benadryl(causes drowsiness) claritin(nondrowsy

Question 10

my hips sway too much while walking (like females)
i drag my legs while walking causing pain
my thighs rub each other while walking causing rashes?

Accepted Answer

Y hips sway walking: I am not sure about your body weight.  If you are overweight, losing weight by diet and exercise may alleviate some of the problems.  Consulting an orthopedic surgeon in your area would help, if body weight is not the issue.
