Question 1

what is flebitis ?

Accepted Answer

You mean phlebitis?: Phlebitis is an inflammation of a vein with a clot.  There are 2 species of phlebiti (i think i made that word up). Superficial thrombophlebitis affects smaller veins and is annoying at best.  Deep vein thrombosis affects larger veins and is a medical emergency, as dvt's can send clots off upstream to the lungs and can be fatal.

Question 2

hi.whenever someone gets attached to me or i with them i start to experience all what they feel.its a burden on my heart & v.heavy feeling.kindly help?

Accepted Answer

Attachment: I'm sorry for how you feel when you get emotionally close to others. It sounds as though you are subconsciously afraid to form an attachment or commitment. Maybe you've experienced a recent loss of a loved one, or you have a past relationship that you are not over yet. You should consider talking to your regular doctor, and asking for a referral to a Psychiatrist or Psychologist to talk it out.

Question 3

my period cycle was35 days b/w jan feb.it changed.before it was 30days.this mnth ovulation date is 1-6 march.can i do home pregnacy test now?cant wait

Accepted Answer

Yes: If you ovulated on march 1, you should be able to detect pregnancy by urine testing at this point. If you ovulated on march 6, testing may not be as accurate and you should retest in several days. If confused, blood pregnancy testing can also be helpful and is more accurate. Good luck.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

Not at all: Bv can not cause infertility.  It is an overgrowth of bacteria found in the vagina.  See your gyn to discuss other causes of infertility.

Question 5

i was urinating a lot and i was feeling dizzy. but it is mostly gone now but, only thing different now is my left lower back now hurts. it been like this for a week. i mostly feel it when i walking around. when sitting i don't feelit?

Accepted Answer

: I answered this question before.
If pain is relieved with some position and exacerbating with certain activities, pain is likely due to a muscle strain, joint or nerve pain, not due to internal organs such as urinary system or bowel tract. If pain has persisted for one week you should see a doctor because most of the common problems I noted above, if simple, should be resolving by now.

Question 6

boils, risens or cyst. i continue to get boils under my arm, sometimes my leg area. this happens 4-5 times a year. i seen my doctor when it appeared to come in the private area and was advised by the hospital it was a bartholin's cyst and follitis.
