Awesome. Thank you .

first thing I'm going to do right now is run to the store to purchase a med tape.

Doctor, help me build stronger bones. I already drink lots of milk. Is there a capsule you recommend?

stop eating those nasty ass junk food that's in ya closet.

C2H5OH. Good diet is all you need to keep your bones healthy. I assume you are an adult and your bones have fully grown?

Yes doc.

by good diet, you mean?

Food that has vitamins to maintain the wear and tear of your body. If you are fat, try to lose weight. Regular exercise. Common sense things

Oyinda, thanks for your comprehensive post on ligament injury and treatment. Which branch of the health service are you

Dr in d house U are doing a great job,pls help me with my prob. When i was 13th (16 yrs ago),i use to observe dt blood comes of my male organ when ever i'm toilet (though i havent xperience sex b4) bt now dt i heard dt is a symptom of STD,i started observed my sperm & discover dt it shows some yellowish colour lk dead sperm cell. Pls wht can i do?.

Oyinda, glad you are able to read google! Worked that out, as the problem C2H5OH has to his thumb is ulna collateral ligament injury. Try and leave the medical answers to the doctors.

topheal, it is unusual to be passing blood each time pass urine. You need to be seen by a urologist. Do you have history of tuberculosis

ulna collateral ligament injury? tell me more doc. is it wise to go ahead with surgery, or would it be better to tape it up for a few months to let it heal? I was told by one of my doctors that taping the finger may not be a good idea, due to stiffness.

C2H5OH, before I venture into treating people I like to have appropriate tests. Depends on where you are based. Access to MRI will tell you how badly damaged your ligament is and whether it needs surgery. Good ultrasonographers can interpret the same. See a plastic or orthopaedic surgeon with interest in hand surgery or someone who is a specialist hand surgeon.

I mean dt blood drops after urine

balogun, good work you are doing here. whats your specialty? mine is orthopaedics and trauma. my interests vary from sports medicine to wellness ,fitness and health management.

HE FEELS AS IF THERE IS SOAP IN THE TIP OF HIS PENIS.PERPERISH AS HE SAY IT AND TODAY MORNING, ASTONISHLY,HE CALL AND TOLD ME THAT HE SAW WHITE LIKE LIQUID, LIKE SPERM BUT IT IS NOT SPERM ON HIS PENIS MOUTH/HOLE

HE IS CRYING WHEN HE WAS TELLING ME AND HE IS AFRAID TO GO FOR CHECK UP?

WHATS THIS SEX DISEASE NAME?

WHICH DRUG OR NATIVE HERB OR INJECTION CAN HE TAKE?

an elderly man told me of septrin injection or tablets, ?

it is ok to pass it on to my best friend?


HELP ME HERE, LET ME ADVISE HIM

PLS DOC, U CAN ALSO LEAVE UR GSM NUMBER OR OFFICE LINE  or YAHOO ID FOR ANY OTHER ADVISE / CHATTING

Kathy and Naijaking. My visit will probably be around the 19th October for about 1 week. Trying to book a place on 5th Avenue. Better than last time when I was there for only 3 days. Gives me chance to look around more. Will be nice to take you great docs to dinner and like I said we can put right all the wrongs of the world

Don faszy, always best to seek a genitourinary specialist for this and make sure your friend and girlfriend provide proper contact list to the doctor

By the way septrin ( co-trimoxazole) wouldn't be my first line of treatment. Important therefore to consult a specialist. Treatment with wrong antibiotic might not get rid of STD assuming that is what it is, but get rid of some of the signs your friend is exhibiting

listen to your doctor and go for the surgery. when is it anyways??

I haven't exactly talked to a "specialist" about an appointment for surgery per se.  I still need to setup an appointment to meet with podiatry and orthopedics, and they would be the ones to decide my fate.

I aint' scared of the surgery or nothing.  Can live with the pain but would rather not.  I am more concerned about the surgery limiting the mobility of my fingers.

were you referred to a specialist? how bad is the injury?

you really should read the link esp the non-surgical treatment section if there isn't any extensive damage and you want to skip surgery
http://www.eorthopod.com/public/patient_education/6566/pip_joint_injuries_of_the_finger.html

i'll suggest you go to the doctor/clinic to help you bind it as well. do just go to the store and do it your self. at least not for the first time

I haven't exactly been treating it. The injury keeps getting re-aggravated time and time again.

kindly send healty tips required for a pregnant lady

Dr Kathy on our ObGyn thread I am sure will be happy to give you advice. From personal experience, good food and prescribed vitamins. Appropriate exercise
