Yes: Anytime a patient feels anything out of the ordinary after major surgery, it would be wise to see the operating surgeon. Doctor's typically want to hear about anything unusual after major surgery to given the opportunity to head off complications or diagnose them as soon as possible.

Question 2

i have an odor& ive been to the gyro and she said i'm fine.i've tried to use summers eve but my gyno said it was messing with things &making it worse.

Accepted Answer

Vaginal odor: Could be bacterial vaginosis which is treated with Flagyl .Ask for testing of bacterial vaginosis or overgrowth of mycoplasma ureoplasma or chlamydia  ( treat with Zithromax). Trichomonis  usually causes itching( Flagyl)  as does yeast (Diflucan) and gonorrhea is usually quite a bit of pus, but would test for those as well .  follow up at gyn , STD clinic

Question 3

i have a prolapsed bladder they gyro said i could have a bladder sling are there any risks and if i don't have surgery will it get worse?

Accepted Answer

Bladder: Hopefully your md is going to discuss the risks with you. There are risks with every surgery. You should have a lengthy discussion with your md and receive a written consent form to review as well. Yes, the sling has risks. Have you spoken to a urogynecologist about this? In general, bladder tends to worsen over time, but it depends on several factors. Seek qualified help.

Question 4

how to grow tall?

Accepted Answer

Exercise, eat, sleep: Most people reach their maximum height in their late teens. Without nutritional problems or chronic childhood illnesses, height is largely based on genetics and parental heights. Aside from eating right, exercising, sleeping well, and being happy, there's not much a person nor his doctor can do to increase height. In rare cases, growth hormone is approved for use in younger, extremely short kids.

Question 5

does gyne do dexa?

Yes: Typically, if you are post menopause, a DEXA scan is a good idea - to identify thin bones (osteopenia or osteoporosis). Since this is considered a silent disease, you need a study to identify it.  Additionally it is more prevalent in women.  As such, many gyn's will order one for you - either in their office or elsewhere.

can boy grow till 21 ?

Depends on  bone age: The potential additional length anyone can expect depends on areas in the long bones (arms, legs, fingers)called growth plates. This is where growth occurs and an active open growth plate means more growth is possible. An xray of the hands & wrists can be evaluated for bone maturity since there are many to see. If  bone maturity is average for a 18yo  growth is done.

Some growth expected: At sixteen your growth centers have some potential for growth and simple measures help the best.Follow a healthy diet, rest and exercise.If you want to know how much longer you have to grow, an x-ray of your wrist and hand can be analysed for bone maturity.If close to 16 you have a little left, if like 14 you have more.

Question 8

till what age do boys grow?

These are best studied in the wrist and hand where dozens of centers are visible on x-ray. The pubertal hormones accelerate growth and the closure of the centers. Most males will close their growth centers at a bone maturity of 17 years. Some with delayed closure will grow more, some into their early 20's.
