Question 1

petechial hemorrhage in strangulation, what to do?

Accepted Answer

Don't get strangled: Hemorrhages caused because valsalva against a closed glottus and increased intravascular pressure

Question 2

what is a venous angioma and a petechial hemorrhage?

Accepted Answer

Petechiae: Petechiae hemorrhage spots come from extremely small areas where you are bleeding into your skin. Many different things can cause petechiae. Some of the more common causes include: an injury, autoimmune disorder, reaction to medication, liver disorder, or bone marrow disorder. But it could also be something as simple as a nutritional deficiency. Try supplementing with vitamins b12, c, folic acid.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

Strangulation?: Petechial hemorrhages may be from strangulation or seriously increased venous pressure.  May want to ask about extracurricular activities!

Question 4

have spiral fracture 5th metatarsal & in 4th week with walking boot. have swelling & bruising but noticed petechial hemorrhage today.  is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Small vessels will burst after injury.  Recommend to keep area wrap with ace bandage.

Question 5

is there any treatment for petechial hemorrhage post vomiting?

Accepted Answer

No but no big deal: They happen with increased pressure and are not a big deal and will go away in a day or so.

Question 6

i had mri & they found a hemorrhagic cyst on my ovary and a left hematosalphix. got to wait a month before i see gyno.  any suggestions of what to do?

Accepted Answer

See the doctor: Except in unusual cases, neither of these is an emergency. Important yes; emergency no. Wait to see the doctor to get the best advice, and good wishes.

Question 7

is it still worthwhile to have an mri--even without gadolinium contrast--to determine if my kidney mass is a hemorrhagic cyst vs. a neoplasm?

Accepted Answer

Kidney mass: I believe that an MRI can make that distinction, but this question is best answered by the radiologist. Your attending physician can confer with the radiologist and get advice about what imaging test is best for further evaluation of the mass.

Question 8

what does "multiple cavernomas, most with chronic hemorrhage changes" in an mri brain report mean?

Accepted Answer

Cavernomas: Another name is cavernous hemangiomas. They are abnormal vascular lesions with small compartments containing blood products. They do not have large feeding arteries or draining veins like AVM's, but may have venous angiomas. If symptomatic, treatment is surgical.

Question 9

i had a clear mra of my neck yesterday. does that mean there's not hemorrhage or clot? or do i need an mri for that, instead of an mra?

Accepted Answer

: An MRA documents the flow of material through the studied vessels. It would pick up a blockage (clot). If there were active bleeding from the vessels studied it would be found.

Question 10

i have a small hemorrhage in my pituitary. my endocrinologist said to wait for 6 months for another mri. ive been on the medication called gabergoline for almost 2 years and the tumor in my pituitary is not decreasing in size and its growing more?

Accepted Answer

: Obtain a referral for a "second opinion" from a neurosurgical physician, as progression of "growing" pituitary tumors can eventually affect hormonal function and visual abnormalities.
