have your blood pressure checked often,control weight,cut down fat intake,quit smoking and reduce alcohol intake,avoid hard drugs (they can cause stroke in a very young man),exercise even if its brisk walking of 30mins daily.Stay healthy. |

Chukzyfcb:i wonder why he had to drive at 140km/hr with a bend close by in the first place?if he is not familiar with the route,that's another reason to drive with caution.well for me,12 o'clock,left hand,at all times.I don't exceed 110km/hr though. |

Inshalord:those are not likely from an infection as they are not reddish or painful.Also,they cant be enlarged lymph nodes.skull xray??indication:multiple calcified skull lumps?i will advice u wait and see a dermatologist before u subject the kid to ionizing radiation in form of xray.A Dermatologist should know better.By the way,a dermatologist is likely to order a biopsy rather than xray.At least first if need be. |

onatisi:Take it easy,no doctor would stick a needle into the head of a patient with keloid.Its called LOCAL infiltration.it means,the injection is received by superficial tissues,surrounding skin is even spared.For example,if you have a scalp laceration,the edges will be infiltrated with local anesthetic e.g xylocaine so u wont be shouting aaaah,eeeeeh yiiiiii because of pain while the doctor stitches u up.it doesnt mean the doctor's needle will penetrate your brain.A keloid located at a part of the body where clothes cant cover is an indication for treatment if the patient wants treatment. 2 Likes |

keloid is a common abnormality of wound healing common in blacks especially those with family history of keloid.its management is tasking and recurrence rate is high.its common on the anterior chest,shoulder,back,ear lobes(can occur after ear piercing),neck.Surgery yields immediate result but it wl likely come back since the wound wl still have to heal.You had injection at the site once,bet its triamcinolone acetonide,a single dose isnt adequate,the result is better but slower to achieve but u must repeat the injection multiple times.Its expensive too.Other treatment options such as cryosurgery,laser may not be readily available.Some use chemotherapy too(5 flourouracil).You will be best managed by a plastic surgeon or dermatologist.take care. 1 Like |

The hospital saved the woman's life.In such a situation,most likely Severe post partum haemorrhage secondary to uterine rupture following prolonged obstructed labour,fast decision making intra operatively is very crucial.There is no time to dilly dally,but its sure the husband was told the situation of things.He probably agreed and signed under tension,but he later realized his wife would be without womb so he sparked after getting his wife back alive.A wife without womb(with children) is better than a dead wife with womb.About the bladder,its very common to have bladder affectation from prolonged obstructed labour,urethral catheter must be in situ for at least 10days to prevent vesicovaginal fistula(a very common condition in the north where teenage girls with underdeveloped pelvis get pregnant) I have Seen a doctor who donated blood to a patient to save his life but stl later got labelled bad.I personally have donated too,thank God they were appreciative.people who dont knw the ethics of medical practice will start blaming the doctors here. |

Car Talk / Re: Automatic Gearbox Problems by Drphemmy4u: 4:19pm On Aug 15, 2016 |
@kashif ,thanks for the prompt response sir,i was hearing a strange sound when gear is put in reverse frm drive and car wldnt reverse. during the job,i was shown a rounded metal with several teeth,with some of the teeth worn out.(the mech said the sounds was frm here) (it was removed frm inside the gear box),also,a rounded object with 8-10 burnt round plates was also replaced.(he said its D5,that i shld change it as well).The car drives fine now,no more issues.but i only decided not to drive it because wrong oil was replaced in the gear(lubcon dextron 11). By flush,i meant changing with the required oil twice to mk sure wrong oil doesnt remain inside.or do i just drain,and refill with honda atf DW1 once?thanks once again. |

Hello kashif,pls i need your advice.i recently had wrk done on my gear( honda accord 03 Auto).the inside was cleaned including the filter.(I saw the removed debris).The mechanic replaced the fluid with lubcon dextron 11.i got to knw so i parked the park while i await original honda atf DW1.Now,should i *flush* out the lubcon dextron 11 or perform a *simple gear oil change*?pls advice.thanks. |

oga GAZZUZZ,please advice me.The same thing happened to my EOD 03 v6 2days ago as i entered a pothole.A mechanic fixed it on the spot and said I should buy new ball joint and lower arm.Another said I should buy new ball joint and tie rod.On getting home that day after the *temporary fix* ,I started hearing a strange noise whenever I put the gear in reverse from the park position or drive position.this sound doesn't come up at times,but when it does,the car doesn't move.it comes only when the gear is in reverse positon.The noise appears to be from the front of the car.please help.what could be wrong?I have parked the car away for now. 1 Like |
Politics / Re: Army Sacks Musa Mustapha Bature Who Had Sex With Colleague’s Wife by Drphemmy4u: 11:11am On Jul 02, 2016 |
Very unprofessional, medical ethics say *male doctor must examine a female patient in the presence of a female chaperon* and a *female doctor must examine a male patient in the presence of a male chaperon* the chaperon is preferably a staff of the hospital (most times a nurse). Always ask for chaperon when an examination involves the private parts.Here,the doctor fumbled,and the woman didn't resist. she later went to his home to collect *ointment* At times,some ladies deliberately show up at the hospital to bring down *weak* male doctors .I remember a 21yr old girl who complained of nipple discharge to me,I started taking the history of the discharge,then she said I should not ask questions but see the breasts myself firsthand.I simply called in my chaperon(a female nurse).Then I did my breast examination. they both messed up. 2 Likes |

hello luvinghubby,I use Honda accord 03,I had the Honda surprise yesterday(the left front leg pulled out) when I entered a pothole. I called a mechanic who fixed it and I was adviced to change the ball joint and tie rod.

Health / Re: The Death Camps Called Government Hospitals In Nigeria! How Ekene Lost His Dad by Drphemmy4u: 12:08am On Jun 15, 2016 |
@op,sorry about your Dad.May God grant him eternal rest.Amen.Its however unfair to generalize.In every profession,there are those who give their all,and there are those who do the opposite.I am a youth Corper serving in a Comprehensive health center in the north,I work every hour of the day,I am the only doctor ,I have no nurse,just two guys that assist in run arounds.I see as much as 30-50patients per day as its the only government hospital in the town and sometimes I have to do minor procedures,run ultrasound scan for pregnant women,review admitted patients in the evening.I get home earliest 8pm,sometimes 10pm ,1am.sometimes I sleep at the hospital with mosquitoes to monitor *bad* patients.Free on Thursdays? no,I avoid CDS to be at work. Sundays? I still go to work.No closing time for me,its work till every patient is fine.There was a day i bled profusely from the nose (epistaxis)spontaneously, I thought my end was here,I wanted to call home but I hesitated,two hours later,i found myself suturing a patient's wound to arrest bleeding.I heard the nearest general hospital has only one doctor.can u imagine the kind of work he will be doing?The generalization is unfair, it depends on individuals.And really,there is no government in this country.The health sector is messed up but some doctors still do their best as humans under such a challenging condition.Sorry for your loss op.its really sad.take heart. 2 Likes |
