Accepted Answer

Hemorrhoids : Hemorrhoids are a common problem, which result from increased pressure in the veins of the anus causing the veins to swell, making them itchy and painful. The most common cause is straining during bowel movements due to constipation.  Hemorrhoids may exist either inside or outside the body - internal hemorrhoids occur just inside the anus, at the beginning of the rectum, whereas external hemorrhoids occur at the anal opening and may hang outside the anus, these can be detected by examining the anal area to see if tissue is protruding outside of the anus.

Itching from hemorrhoids can be treated with a number of over-the-counter medications, these tend to soothe the hemorrhoids and some add the action of Hydrocortisone to reduce inflammation.  Cold compresses can improve the discomfort, ice cubes broken into small pieces, place in plastic and cover with a thick towel, and then sit on it.  I would be cautious of using ice cubes into the rectum due to the trauma of insertion and the direct application of ice to the skin can cause skin damage from frostbite if exposed too long.

If these hemorrhoids are consistently symptomatic, you may wish to see a general or colorectal surgeon who can band the hemorrhoids.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

: Sexually transmitted diseases are past from one person to another. If one person has an infection, they may pass it to a sexual partner. Sexually transmitted infectious diseases do not pop up spontaneously. An infected person transmits them to another

Question 4

Accepted Answer

Get rechecked: Please see your doctor again for a persistent kidney infection. They need to review your urine testing/cultures. If feeling worse tonight would do to the emergency room

Question 5

my feet smell very bad and my socks turn yellow, i've changed my socks and shoes through out the day, but it's stii the same result. help?

Accepted Answer

Foot fungus!: It sounds to me like you may have a very bad case of good old-fashioned athlete's foot, which is a fungal infection in the skin of your feet. I would start with one of the athlete's foot spray powders. Spray it liberally into your feet each day and in your shoes. Wash your socks often in hot water with bleach. If it doesn't clear up, see your doc for more aggressive treatment.

Question 6

rashes appears on foot with itching now on hands its about 9 days ago itching disappear but stii rashes exit he is only about 19 month should i b fear?

Accepted Answer

A photo is helpful: to diagnose a rash.  In a toddler with rash on feet and hands, two things most common:  dyshydrotic eczema, which is a type of eczema caused by excess sweating of hands and feet, or a coxsackie virus, called Hand Foot Mouth which is a benign short term viral illness, usually with sores in the mouth as well. Since the itching is gone, OK to wait a few more days before evaluation unless rash spreads

Question 7

what is s.t.i?

Accepted Answer

STI = STD: STI usually stands for sexually transmitted infection, same as sexually transmitted disease, or STD. The main STIs are chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, trichomonas, gential herpes, genital human papillomavirus (HPV), and HIV (the AIDS virus). There are several others as well, mostly minor or uncommon.

Question 8

sister said i have mci. what is that?

Accepted Answer

MCI: Mild cognitive impairment can present in different ways. Pure amnestic(short term memory loss) mci is  now known to be pre alzheimers- 12-15% of these patients will progresss to ad per year. Non- amnestic mci where other areas of brain function are affected is not pre ad; it may remain stable. Both types of mci need close follow up to monitor for progression of illness.

Question 9

can someone who had s.t.i have a baby?

Accepted Answer

Yes: In majority of cases, no problem with conception. Females may have scarring of fallopian tubes which can lead to greater risk of ectopic (/tubal) pregnancy, so need close following by obstetrics.

Question 10

i did a cheap test this morning it said no?

Accepted Answer

Pregnancy Tests: Even inexpensive home pregnancy tests are quite accurate. Have you missed your period? Most women test after they miss a period? You can repeat test in a week if still no period. Take care.
