Please, what can I do because its beginning to bother me. Thanks

Some quick questions which should guide our advice :
Any pattern associated with this pain? (maybe more when you wake or when ur active)
Does the pain seem to move to your back or shoulder?
Does the pain seem to ache or is it sharp or dull?

Hello docs in the house ..my dad has been complaining of severe lower back ache ..he's been to the hospital and was told to do xray but no defect was found as he was told everything is perfect ..but he complains so much about the back pain ..he screams whenever he wants to stand up ..he can't sitdown straight except with a support ..same thing if he wants to stand ..also he finds it hard to twist his waist ..he is 57yrs ... Please what can he do and use? I really feel so bad when ever I see him groan in pains ..hoping to hear from the docs in the house soon .. Thanks

It's usually not advisable to settle with just one opinion especially if there doesn't seem to be a way forward.
I'd advise you seek another opinion from a different hospital (preferably a teaching hospital).
Your dad may be experiencing a nerve compression syndrome usually due to a slipped disc.
There is also a condition called vertebral arthrodesis and may not be picked up by an X-ray, except a CT scan or MRI is done.
Take your dad to a federal hospital near you.

Must one get a referral before one can see a urologist. Can I go for scan on my own as sfa shows oligospermia. Doctor is just giving hormonal drugs and antibiotic fr 5 months now..
From online reading I feel isolating varicocele possibility as a cause is important now. Drs in d house I beg Kindly guide me on what to do.

You can see a doctor on self or medical referral however I'd advice you don't do any scan till you have seen the urologist.
Speaking from personal experience, if a patient I haven't evaluated brings a scan which I didnt order for, it spoils my mood and I may have to re-order for another scan especially if it was done by a centre whose scans i'm not comfortable with.
Varicocele isn't a historical diagnosis, the most important part of the diagnosis is on examination.
Bottom line : go and see the urologist ffs

jadajada:
pls, do you know if there is herbal remedy or alternative treatment for it?

First it's pertinent to know how you came about the diagnosis of GOO. drlayla has told you most of what you need to know but let's get down to the basics sef

gbengaoyeladun:
hello doc in the house, i had hepatitis b, my eye is yellow in colour likewise my urine also. Pls which drug i can use to treat it .

Easy mate, how long have you had the hepatitis?
What tests have you done? Decision to give drugs and the type of drugs depends on some factors. So let's take it one by one.

it happens that for sometime I have been having frequent indigestion and bloatness after eating and most times feel uncomfortable until I vomit. I went to a hospital and the doctor said is GOO but I shld go for barium test to confirm. He also ask if I had history of ulcer, which is the major cause And that if it's confirmed that the only solution is surgery.

Sometimes when am active and also when I lay down at night. Its moves more to my shoulder and the pain is inbetween sharp and sometimes dull. I always place my hand on it whenever I feel the sharp pain. Its really confusing because I havent really noticed the pattern. I still felt the pain in the morning while sitting down that was the reason I sent the message. Thanks

From your description, it doesn't appear like cyclical breast pain which usually comes at some routine time of the month and affects both breasts.
This one looks more like non-cyclical and not to freak you out two common conditions come to mind both of which can only be confirmed when your breast is examined.
You may also need to do an X-ray or mammogram for confirmation. (the doctor would decide that after examining you)
So I'd advice you make your way to the hospital and get examined.
Meanwhile you could use some pain killers for relief.

Well, a GOO is best diagnosed after you do either a scan or an X-ray (barium meal). As it is, it's not impossible that you have GOO buh until confirmed by the barium meal, it may just be a case of indigestion (acid peptic disease).
I advise you go ahead with the barium meal.

drlayla:
u need to do a urine mcs

Lol, not unexpected. I'm in the north and would confirm the current rate tomorrow. Last time I sent for that invg was 3months ago.
If you subtract tfare plus accommodation money, it would be roughly same.

X-ray isn't necessary at this stage, you may only be experiencing muscular strain and spasm.
You can use a painkiller for 2/3 days.

Good then. Subclinical hepatitis mostly requires lifestyle adjustment. Run away from alcohol and don't use drugs not prescribed by your doctor.
Very importantly, practise safe sex.
