question:Hello doctor, I have multiple small cysts in both ovaries (PCOS). Our family friend suggested me to consume Kalarchikai medicine, powdered mixed with pepper and honey to have it for one mandalam (48 days). I have completed nearly 44 days by consuming one small ball of the mixture every morning and before two weeks I got my periods. Then I had checked whether the cysts were dissolved by having an abdomen scan. But still, small multiple follicules have been seen in it with both ovaries enlarged. Kindly suggest me what I can do further. I got married before one and a half years and I am much worried about my pregnancy. I have gallstones as well.
answer:Hello. I just read your query. See Kalarachi Kai choornam is helpful in amenorrhea. As far as small cysts are concerned they are unmatured eggs which failed to induce menstrual cycle previously, as a result, they got collected in the ovary and they will remain in the ovary. Now, you have got your periods you can start trying for conception. But I advise you to do it under the supervision of a nearby gynecologist because egg size is important while conception and that you can know by ovulation study. Ovulation study is performed under the supervision of a gynecologist. For gall stones, surgical intervention is required generally. Medicine is not of much help.

question:Hello doctor,Nine months ago, I used my iPhone flashlight to check my pupils in the mirror. I had the light extremely close to my eyes and was checking my pupils due to other issues I was experiencing. After I did this, every light source I saw was extremely different. Beams were coming down from every corner, all traffic lights were no longer circular, they were like starbursts. All car headlights were extremely bright now and the light was no longer flat in my view. This went up and down, like up towards the sky and then it fades off. When this happened, my eyes were blurry and burning. Now they no longer burn but I still experience the same thing. I have seen a retina specialist and a cornea specialist, both have said nothing is wrong. I am extremely frustrated because I know something is wrong. When I go to a bathroom, beams of light shine into the mirror. The best way to describe it is to picture a laser tag room but this happens from every light source that comes across. Please help. What could this be? Will it go away or get better over time? I am so confused as to what I have done. What I see is not normal.

question:Hello doctor, I have done CBC. My results are normal except lymphocytes 49 % also lymph are normal.
answer:Hello. There seems to be a slight increase in the percentage of peripheral blood lymphocytes. However, if the total count of white blood cells is within the normal range and if all other findings including ESR are normal, then this is nothing to worry about. If you have any other symptoms of inflammation or infection like fever, weight loss, night sweats, fatigue or loss of appetite, you may want to repeat the CBC test. An isolated abnormality in the count of blood cells is negligible if you do not have any remarkable symptoms. Hope this helps. For more information consult a general practitioner online -->
question:Hey doctor, I am suffering from a constant headache, irritability when someone speaks loud or in a noisy area, muscle pain near shoulders, sometimes dizziness, fatigue, tiredness, and crying spells. During my university lectures, I can sit for 10 to 15 minutes but then suddenly, I feel dizziness and something happens in my legs and I want to cry, sometimes crawling as my legs stop working. I feel I am nothing and cannot do anything in my life, frequent urination.
answer:Hello. it is all symptoms of depression. You need to take antidepressants medications for short time. You can do some other nonpharmacological way to deal with your depression. Start daily exercise for 30 to 40 minutes just go for a walk, eat healthy food, avoid junk food, take regular deep sleep, go or learn swimming if you can do, develop some good hobbies like painting, reading, writing, learn something new, spend time with family, make good friends, spend quality time with your friends, talk with new people, take cold shower, spend some time for yourself (just do what you want to do for 20 to 30 minutes a day), learn to do relaxation or meditation, and stay away from any type of substance abuse. Live your life, not just spend it. Be bold and confident, fight with your problem. You should check your thyroid hormone level, vitamin B 12 level, and fasting glucose to rule out diabetes. I suggest taking (antidepressants) tablet Escitalopram 10 mg once daily after breakfast or lunch. Do not take on empty stomach, it will cause stomach pain or gastritis. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and start taking the medicines with their consent. For more information consult a psychiatrist online -->
question:Hello doctor, I am a 50-year-old woman and have been diagnosed with mild scoliosis many years ago. My left shoulder is slightly higher than my right and right hip slightly higher than my left. Of late I am experiencing muscle pain and stiffness in the left side of my neck and the left shoulder. Is this something linked to scoliosis? What should be the remedy? Currently, I am taking Replace H and Thyronorm.
answer:Hi. Yes, quite possibly. Because you have a pre-existing imbalance in your upper spine, the muscle and ligaments are not subjected to similar stresses. This should be the first cause to be addressed through local therapies and strengthening of the weaker muscles. In addition, you will need to look at your current posture and aggravating factors if you want to avoid long-term problems and recurrence.
