Mga sir ang pigsa po ba nakakahawa?

 

kapatid ko kc nagkapigsa sa kili-kili hehe.. pero di naman kami tabe matulog. nagkapigsa ako sa tagiliran ko after niya gumaling.

 

Thanks...di tuloy ako makapag SPA.. hehe :upside:

 

hindi sya dapat nakakahawa kasi un body nya un problem hindi masyado nacontrol un skin infection kaya sya ngdevelop ng pigsa. pero if you have an open wound and nadikit ka sa area na may infection sya there is a possibilty that you might get the infection also. you just have to take antibiotics clean the wound and as soon as lumabas yung nana try to squeeze it all out because it will help in controlling the infection

gud day po.

 

ano po ba ang remedy sa anal secretions? palaging basa ang anal area.

 

anong kulay nung secretions mo? parang nana ba? nagkarron ka ba ng parang pigsa before malapit sa butas ng puwet bka kasi mayroon ka nung tinatawag na fistula in ano.

 

opo...parang nana po. di ko maalala kung nagkaroon ako ng pigsa before malapit sa butas ng puwet. ... ang naaalala ko lang eh... nagsimula ito nung nagkamali ako at naiisuot ko ang underwear na hindi akin.

 

ano po ba ang remedy nito?

 

well as you describe it you might have a fistula in ano and the treatment for it is surgery. the thing is that this infection made a tract from inside your anus then out to the skin. this is causing the constant secretions unless the tract is removed then your secretions will not dissappear

Hi need help docs.

i don`t want to scare you bro, pero mas mabuti na mag-konsulta na kayo agad sa ENT specialist..

 

the symptoms you described might be attributed to a tumor growing sa panga ng father mo..

Pterigium is brought about by exposure to the elements, especially the sun. There is no full-proof way of getting rid of it, unless you decide to live and work only at night. the only way to get rid of it is through surgically removing the excess tissue, but then, there is a chance of the growth growing back after years/decades.

there are available eye drops, but these only delay the growth and spread.

congenital heart disease, DOC may butas heart ko. sabi ng mga doctor mag paopera ako. pero hindi pa ako handa. pag naoperahan ba ako mawawala yung murmur sa heart ko? and kung hindi ako mag paopera mga hangang ilang taon ako bago mamatay? Doc wala ako nararamdaman kakaiba sa heart ko i'm active and playing badminton.

 

thanks mga DOC.

actually, it depends kung anong klaseng congenital heart disease ang meron ka bro, whether you have a cyanotic or non-cyanotic kind of heart problem..

 

cyanotic meaning your heart problem causes bluish discoloration of your skin and mucous membranes due to lack of oxygen in your body.. non-cyanotic means no bluish discoloration..

 

when you say butas sa heart, i`m assuming that you have either a Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) or Atrial Septal Defect (ASD).. it`s good that presently you are active and that you don`t have any symptoms related to heart problems..

 

i`m not a cardiologist, but if you do have a hole in your heart, eventually if it is not repaired it will most likely cause serious problems in the near future.. my advice to you is to consult a cardiologist who has excellent credentials and explore all options that you may have..

sorry i saw this just now. but doc miggy's reply is spot on.

 

pterygiums are actually the conjunctiva (in lay man's terms, it is the covering of the eye, just like the skin covers your body) encroaching on the cornea (which acts like a clear window pane through which light passes to facilitate vision) which incidentally should be clear of this covering. once this encroachment happens, the cornea will become opaque (as opposed to clear) and will hinder clear vision.

 

eyedrops cannot remove pterygiums. nor could they hinder it's growth. what they could do is decrease the pterygiums bulk and it's redness (they have blood vessels) for it to be easthetically more acceptable.

 

and as discussed, removal of pterygiums could only achieved through minor surgery that is done under local anesthesia and is an outpatient procedure.

 

for the meantime, try shielding your eyes with sunglasses from the elements like dust, wind, and most importantly, the sun.

panga ang namamaga ? may sira ba ang ngipin ? any trauma sa affected area ? ilan minuto /hours/days nag blur ang eyesight ? san part ng panga (mandible) namamaga ? nawawala din after ilang days ? madami pa questions and kailangan pa ng physical exam to really diagnose his case. mayron ka picture habang namamaga ? namaga after eating burger (with cheese ba ? joke only) kung malapit sa tenga or sa ilalim ng tenga maybe parotid ang problem, either barado ang daanan ng laway or may stone. but then again, better consult your nearest ENT specialist for better management and treatment.

[dekimasen]

Doc nakakahawa po ba ang fistula in ano? while waiting for surgery, ano po bang dapat gawin para ma minimize man lang ang secretions? Bakit po kung minsan kulay dugo ang lumalabas?

[kanski]

^

 

hindi nakakahawa ang f.i.a. pero wala kang magagawa kundi hugasan lang ito ng maige. ang siste, kahit hugasan mo ito, may lalabas ding nana na may kasamang dugo yan mamaya-maya.

 

bali wala ang antibiotiko sa sobrang dami ng nana na meron dito. ang tanging sagot, gaya ng nabanggit ng ibang kasama ko dito, ay surgery. kailangan lagyan yan ng drain para tulyan mawala ang nana bago magsara ang fistula (daanan/butas).

 

for the mean time, try wearing adult diapers.

hi. hypertension per se can affect the diastolic function of your heart which is when your heart starts filling up with blood to pump out. Despite having a normal ejection fraction there may be instances that you may have signs and symptoms related to heart failure( easy fatigability/tiring, lower lextremity edema or manas etc). For some patients it may be difficult to initially manage hypertension. your cardiologist may combine a number of medications like beta blockers, centrally acting meds (catapres), angiotensin Receptor blockers etc and depending on your response, he may adjust them.

 

You may also trying life style modification which can help a lot- daily exercise, limiting alcohol intake and salt intake. Many studies have also shown a postive effect when patients diet and loose weight. a certain decrease in your weight usually translates to a decrease in your blood pressure.

 

Hope this helps. Diet, exercise, continue your medications and regular follow-up with your doctor is the norm.

 

PS. you may also try getting an ultrasound of your kidneys. somethimes the problem may be linked to narrowing of some vessels in your kidney or if not a kidney disease.
