Question 1

im 26 weeks and 5 days my baby is kicking or moving very low. sometimes it feel uncomfortable to walk as it feels like something will drop from my vagina. is this normal or should i be worried?

Accepted Answer

Low lying fetus ?: At 26 weeks, it is possible that the feelings described can indicate early cervical change,  but painful walking is usually b/c of softening of the connecting tissue between the two pelvic bones in the mid-pelvis, normal in late pregnancy.  Check with your OB physician for an exam to make sure early cervical change is not a forecast for early labor.

Question 2

18 athlete.walk up a flight of stairs and hr goes to 140's and i feel heart pounding. sit down and sharp drop to 55bpm. goes to 75 min or so after?

Accepted Answer

Tachycardia : Exertional tachycardia can be normal but when it is exaggerated as described, we would want to make sure there's not something wrong with the heart rhythm.  A cardiologist would probably put you on a treadmill and monitor the EKG during exercise.

Question 3

a yr aftr tb meningitis my gf is unable to walk straight bt cn go upstairs . she used to twist her left paw. i thought it was drop foot so sent hr a splint. nw she started to twist her right paw, why?

Accepted Answer

See Neurologist: This sounds like a serious neurologic problem either caused by scar tissue or continuing or complicated infection. Don't delay-see soon.

Question 4

im confined to a chair or wheel chair most of the time but while in the chair my oral temp is 99.3 however when i stand and walk short distances my oral temp drops back 98.5. what could cause this?

Accepted Answer

: You are cooling or forehead or where ever you are taking temp.  Most accurate temperature is to measure the urine tenp immediately. See if you can find a mercury thermometer which is most accurate.

Question 5

does low levels of oxygen impair you ablity to walk straight?

Accepted Answer

Oxygen and walking.: If there is not enough oxygen getting to your brain because you have too little oxygen in your blood then yes it will be difficult to walk at all, much less in a straight line. If you are asking about what might cause you to have trouble walking in general, then there are explanations other than low oxygen levels. I suggest providing more detail and asking again, as well as discussing with your MD

Question 6

i feel a few drops of urine left after i am done, mostly they drop when i put my pants on or walk out of the toilet. any diagnosis? any med / exercise

Accepted Answer

Normal: It is normal to have some residual urine drops at the end of excretion. You can try kegel exercises but it is nothing to worry about.

Question 7

i have a foot drop thats why i can't walk properly what can i do?

Accepted Answer

See Physician: Such s podiatrist or orthopedist. Neurologist may be helpful depending on cause. You proably need a ankle/foot orthotic or brace.

Question 8

eat low carb and exercise 5 days a week, walk 5 miles a day, weights 3 days and swim 30 minutes 2 days a week for the past few years. lost 50 lbs but plateaued at around 220 any recommendations.

Accepted Answer

You're doing well!: going from 270 to 220 will have a significant lowering of risk of diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease. Of course, you will have  about 500 LESS calories burned per day due to the lower weight. Calorie count, estimates of how much net in/out is a first start. Sounds like with an 1800 cal diet, you should be losing.

See orthopedic Dr.: Hard to say.  Could be many causes- herniate disk, pinched nerve, muscular strain, etc.  See a Dr. to get answers asap rather than trying to wait it out or doctoring yourself
