Windvane...Take your brother Dr for Sexually Transmitted Infection screening.(STI). Test will reveal infection cause and appropriate antibiotics. Avoid self medication to prevent resistance to treatment and complications.

[quote author=ArabianPrince post=39583044]@munalight. Are you overweight? If yes then you need to shed some weight.

If what you described is what it is...then your condition is called stress incontinence.

If in addition you are not able to hold your wee before you get to the loo...then that is Urge Incontinence. Having both condition is called. Mixed incontinence.

However, it is not common in your age group, unless you have had multiple birth in the past or you had a procedure. Your pelvic floor muscle is weak

You need ....Pelvic Floor Exercise. Just Google for how to go about the exercise.

Am nt overweight, no birth or procedure...thanks alot.

You are quite young to have low testosterone issues. Have you actually gotten your testosterone level checked and it is low or are you guessing? If not, get level checked first. If you have, then report back number or analysis of your hormonal assay etc.

Have you seen a medical professional for this complaint at all? Reply back or just PM me.

I don't know what you were being treated for w/ antibiotics; save for TB or other lung infection. What are the results of the chest xray you got? I mean what did it say? Also, do you have difficulty breathing?

Pain control if it's just ligament/muscle strain that is causing pain. But, the cause of pain needs to be confirmed before treating.

What is your gender? And describe the details of this pain: where exactly? how long? sharp? dull? etc...

What does this rash look like? Itchy? painful? Can you post a pic of the rash or? Just the rash and nothing else, so I see what it looks like. Either that or give me good description to go with. I can tell ya 'cause I cannot see it.

Most recurrent rashes are either contact dermatitis- in that case, search for the culprit and stop that thing( clothing, lotion, detergent, soap, perfume etc).

The other is perhaps eczema; then try 1% hydrocortisone and apply good moisturize neutral lotion on it.

Stress incontinence is likely though you are not the typical risk factor associated with it. But, it happens:

Try these:

Pelvic muscle exercises to strength your pelvic floor structure, in turn helps hold urine
Loose weight if you are obese
Drink less water and establish a bathroom schedule depending on the time of your incontinence
Can also be fitter for something called pessary or tampon when you don't want public embarrassment

Kennett

are you sexually active? If you are, get STD screen to be sure. Are you uncircumcised?

boils indicate you may be harboring lots of staph coupled with less than ideal hygiene practices.

If it is just skin infection, then I would advice topical antibiotics and anti staph. bath wash/rinse to limit amount colonized on your skin.

then practice good hygiene, keep area clean and dry.

Does your mother have any medical problems? Diabetes? Heart disease? High blood pressure?

Any pain in the leg/foot? What is the condition of her leg/foot as in is it normal looking or is it pale, hairless, cold, discolored? Any wounds?

I suggest seeing a medical professional for thorough exam especially if any aforementioned factors are present?

Thanks alot...can surgery be done to correct it?
Re: Doctor in the House: Free Medical Advice Available by Nobody: 11:07pm On Nov 03, 2015

There is surgery. But, you should try conservative approaches first. If what I suggested do not work, there are medications.

Also: limit alcoholic beverages if you partake, and stop smoking. Do get screened for diabetes.

I would get her checked out by a doctor just in case. Also, her orthotics should be investigated, as in the shoes she wears. Any injuries she is involved in? Physical activities and the like?

Get her blood pressure measured, sugar levels and have someone listen to her heart with a stethoscope and leg/foot examined and pulses checked.

Nitro XX :- It is very important to consider how much area you've available before you get any gear. Certainly you'dnot wish to learn later the gear that you just obtained can not fit on your home. The amount of exercises that the equipment can do should also be one among your criteria that are prime. If your device has different features, you will not need to buy a new one just in case you bored or get tired with your overall workout plan.

Honestly, it depends on a lot of factors. There is no fixed answer and everything is individualized. What was the indication for the first CS? Is she breast-feeding? Once her menses have become regular and there is no mitigating health condition, she may attempt pregnancy

Drug resistance and counterfeit drugs are often issues in developing world! You clearly still have malaria parasites in your blood stream that need to be eradicated! The only thing I can say is get tested again and target treatment based on what kind of malaria mad treatment that is effective! Try not to self treat. See a medical professional

Paying too much for a gym association.According to gyms, their equipment ? fancy, Sytropin glowing computerized and hydraulic machines ? are the by yourself way to construct muscle safely and effectively.

Carrying extra weight around the waist is common for people with pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes, but it doesn't have to be that way. As a matter of fact, trimming your belly fat will not only help you look and feel better, it can also help reduce your risk of heart attack and stroke.

Making your abdominal muscles stronger has another advantage as well. They support the lower back and hold you upright. Continual poor posture puts these muscles to sleep, leaving you with a belly bump as well as an aching back.

A good ab workout will lighten your midsection and emphasize other large muscles of your body in a way that increases your metabolism (to burn fat) and improves your posture ( to make you look younger and leaner).
