Question 1

None: Be happy that you have a light flow.

Question 2

hi, my queries are related to mensural cycle. i'm on periods now (1st day 21yrs old). no blood flow in pad. but could see blood when i wipe it. (i'm still virgin) what can be the causes and remedy to overcome this problem?

Accepted Answer

: Menstrual irregularities are not uncommon and anovulatory cycle is a common cause. If you miss more than two periods it would be time to see your doctor. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time. You may consider implanted contraceptive or an IUD.

Question 3

blood flow blocked to lower leg. what happens without treatment and time frame for this event?

Accepted Answer

Emergency: Arterial blockage will result in rapid loss of sensation after early severe pain, them loss of movement and rapid onset of muscle and nerve death requiring amputation as lifesaving measure. Need to act ASAP as minutes can make a huge difference in recovery by restoring perfusion to tissues. Venous blockage can be just as severe but will demonstrate early swelling and may take longer for severesign

Question 4

would transcranial doppler be very helpful in detecting brain blood flow irregularities?would treatment be vasodilators if brainblood flow is reduced?

Accepted Answer

Doppler for flow: Some may be able to comment on this better than I, but the transcranial doppler study is unable to measure all of the arteries, as some of them are very deep within the head.

If vasconstriction was found, it would not necessarily lead to vasodilator medication.

Perhaps it makes sense to return to what started the idea of blood flow irregularity.

Question 5

vas.dr, blocked sub clavicle artery, 1 of 4 arteries to brain has reversed blood flow and is trying to supply l arm w/blood. said i need neurosurgeon? what would be the procedure to remedy this?

Accepted Answer

Subclass steal: I specialize in these problems. I would think you need to see vascular surgeon not neurosurgeon. This is called subclavian steal. Suspect you have low BP in that arm. Discuss with your family doctor.  Most likely it is your left arm. Give us more details.

Question 6

had hypertension emergency reaction to pseudoephedrine.ever since, chest pain &terrible blood flow. is this endothelial dysfunction? whats treatment?

Accepted Answer

Disbalance in vessel: Blood vessels are lined by cells call endothelia. They make chemicals that both relax the vessels (vasodilator) &amp; constrict them. Usually, the chems are kept in balance. in some individuals, the endothelium has a bias or predisposition to one or the other. The slightest thing can set it off. In your case, pseudoephedrine causes walls to overly constrict, raising blood pressure. Avoid OTC cold meds

Question 7

23y/o with left calf lymphedema with decreased blood flow after tga repair. he's now having severe left thigh cramps.  can the two be related? he's being scheduled for a vis soon. suggestions for treatment?

Accepted Answer

Thigh cramps: After trauma to the femoral artery, thigh discomfort caused by the development of neuralgia or femoral nerve pain is a recognized complication. It may resolve after months. The vascular surgeon can advise you best and can rule out clots or pseudoaneurysm.

Question 8

my wife had a miscarriage last friday(good friday) after 12 weeks of pregnancy. after treatment at the hospital, she had a blood flow with heavy clots for about 5 days. just last night as she was urinating, something like a heavy blood clot in the size of

Accepted Answer

Miscarriage: It would not be unusual to pass a large clot of tissue after such a tragic event. Make sure she does not have a fever  or increasing abdominal tenderness which would be of concern.

Question 9

what can i eat naturally to treat scanty or light period ? to increase blood flow?

Accepted Answer

: There is no food which will regulate amount of periods. Eat a healthy diet and drink water . If symptoms persist see a Gyn for cause.

Question 10

i m not getting a proper blood flow during my periods from last 2 months tell me some remedies to increase the blood flow during mensuration

Accepted Answer

Please see your gyn: For an exam, blood work and an ultrasound because it may be normal for you not to have much blood flow, as long as your uterine endometrial lining is thin and not thick that is fine, and most women would rather have little to no bleeding assuming everything is ok.
