I recently got a implant done, but during my healing / antibiotics stage – my tongue started to appear like I have oral thrush (white hair – very sticky, and can be scrubbed off with no pain). Red dots all around an large bumps at the back of my tongue. This is no where else in my mouth but my tongue.
I was prescribed Nystatin, but it did not work. I was recently prescribed another mouthwash similar to nystatin but nothing is changing with my mouth. There is no pain anywhere else, minus the odd muscle pains in the legs (started about a week ago).
I also just noticed that I have white scars on penis. I’m not 100% sure when this started, but I noticed it in the last couple days. There is no pain and the scars are about 1mm in dia and are on the shaft of the penis and balls.
Is there something more that I should be worried about?

My daughter developed a rash on legs, may have been bug bites?
My daughter (24yo caucasian) recently had an overnight layover in Xianmen China and noticed the next day what looked like bug bites over much of her body. The bites are not itchy, but there is a growing irregular shaped dark red rash around most of them. The attached photo shows the progression from mild redness on day 2 to dark red irregular rash on day 4. She doesn’t think she has a fever, but has felt some perhaps unrelated instances of nausea and headache. She’s currently in Japan for an extended stay.
I received cortisone shots in my scalp for the purpose of hair growth but the shot left me with hyper pigmentation?
I received cortisone shots in my scalp for the purpose of hair growth but the shot left me with hyper pigmentation. Each area that the shot was applied has a white spot in the area making it visible where I received each shot. No hair has grown in those areas at all. I received the shot January 31, 2017. Today is May 16, 2017 and I have yet to see any improvement. Is there anything I can do to reverse what looks like blotch white spots on my scalp? It’s very noticeable because the spots are so much lighter than my regular complexion

I have painful swelling in both calfs and behind both knees, doctors are puzzled, need second opinion?
Good day i am a 27 yr old male with painful swelling in both calfs and behind both knee. I have had a bi lateral anterior faciotomy and ankle spurs removed from both legs but approximately 18 months post op the pain is getting worse and i have very limited mobility in my ankles. I have spent 7 years in the Canadian armed forces which required alot of running and ruck marches prior to the start of this pain 2 -3 years ago. I have been to see physio, osteopathists, surgions, reumotologists and the pain clinic. All doctors i have seen say there is a large amount of swelling in my calfs but have all been puzzled as to why. Thank you for your time.
I am pregnant however I have taken the morning after pill twice any adverse effects on the fetus?
I just found out that I am pregnant. I have calculated that I am currently four weeks pregnant, however in the last 3 weeks I have taken the morning after pill twice. I have also taken a 7-day course of 50mg fluconazole oral tablets.
Would there be any adverse effects on the fetus due to the medication I have taken?
Thank You
My mother is 91 requires anti-coagulants, need second medical opinion?
My mother is 91 and lives in Aged Care. She is wheelchair bound and cannot walk by herself at all. Two days ago a locum advised that she has Cellulitis in her leg and started her on a course of antibiotics. Today her regular doctor advised that he thinks it might be DVT instead as the swelling goes from her groin to her ankle. He advised that we could do a test to check if it is DVT but there is no point if we are not prepared to put her on anti-coagulants. I have done some googling and there seems to be differing opinions about giving anti-coagulants to the elderly. I am looking for a second opinion as this is a very difficult decision for me to make.
I think my urologist did a poor job with my circumcision?
I am a 70 year old man and I was circumcised about two years ago. I think my urologist did a poor job. Since the surgery I have had constant itching around the head of my penis. The itching is s bad that I can bear the pain caused by rubbing it raw more than I can bear the itching. My MD prescribed a steroidal cream that I used for about a year but that didn’t really help ether. I use Vaseline intensive care but it really doesn’t help. I moved and no longer have a doctor available. Is there anything I can do to stop this unbearable itching?
I have varicoceles, a low sperm count reluctant to get in a relationship with this problem?
My question is i have trouble ejaculating during sex…been single 18mths but was a problem with ex girlfriend intermittently.I have had semen checked and basically was told I have a low sperm count and may have trouble getting someone pregnant.I have varicoceles in both testes which im guessing doesnt help.
My gp gave me prescription for a testosterone injection which lasted a few months and did increase my sex drive
I am able to ejaculate through masturbation (once or twice a week) with little difficulty with the assistance of porn..lol
I think part of the problem is mental..fear of not ejaculating
Been with plenty of partners since being single but this problem doesn’t help
Id love to father a child but maybe am reluctant to get in a relationship with this problem
I know I could go to a fertility clinic but it is difficult and embarrassing to talk about,I know there is an operation for varicocels which may help but sounds painful
I don’t have trouble getting girls but am a bit fussy,and time is running out to be a dad..Any advice much appreciated
I also read about “death grip syndrome” masturbation which could be a factor in my problem?
I’m a 43yr old single male..87kg 179cm

I have had throbbing pain under my 8th -10th left ribs that can fluctuates to unnoticeable to an 8?
I am a 25 year old female 1st year medical student, I have had throbbing pain under my 8th -10th left ribs that can fluctuates to unnoticeable to an 8. At the mid axillary line and seems to radiate towards the back and the front. I think it is worse in the evening. I have had the pain for 3 months originally it was accompanied by skeletal muscular pain near my scapula, which has since gone away since using a heating pad. The rib pain is worse when I am seated upright cross legged and is relieved by relaxed inhalation. Made worse by both forced inhalation and exhalation. The pain started off feeling like a stitch that wouldn’t go away and has shifted to more throbbing. I tried rubbing it out thinking it is just skeletal muscle pain just is an atypical location, I tried rubbing it out and all I ended up with was a bruise. I take Effexor (150mg) (been on it approx 4 months) for depression and vyvanse for add (on approx 5 years), I also have mirena (IUD). I am getting dizzy when i stand up and in the morning if I get out of bed to quickly I will make it a few steps before I need to sit down I will start getting dark spots in my vision. I had my blood pressure taken a month or so ago its was 112/84. I am worried that it might be something with my kidney or spleen or plura and hoping it is just med student idice acting up.

I had a perfect vision until I suddenly developed a double vision when I was on a Europe trip, doctors cannot diagnose what’s wrong with me?
I’m a 32 years old male from Sri Lanka. I had a perfect vision until I suddenly developed a double vision when i was on a Europe trip. This happened on the 17th of April 2017. I had a severe headache by around the 14th and I took paracetamol. I noticed a change of focus on my left eye sight corner with the headache. I rested well thinking this is for tiredness. On the 17th morning when I woke up I had developed double vision. I have to close one eye to have a clear vision. Checked with eye specialists in Paris and they said my eye pressure is normal and nothing wrong with the vision (as i could see clearly with one eye closed) and no change in structure. Within a week people started noticing a squint too. I came back to Sri Lanka only on the 1st of May. Consulted Neuro specialists and Eye specialists. They did many tests including MRI, sugar, thyroid, cholesterol, ANA, chest x Ray etc and all reports were normal. The eye pictures were also normal. Hess test showed that there is a problem with the focus and that there is quite a noticeable squint. As all reports are normal doctors cannot diagnose what’s wrong with me. They advised me to just stay like this and it will go off. I’m on medixone for the last two weeks. But I don’t see any improvement in my double vision condition or the squint. I get the headache too on and off. And my left eye vision is now slightly blurred. Please let me know doctor what this condition is and what treatment is available? Looking forward to hear from you as I’m really in a helpless situation with no hope here for a quick recovery.
My son has been experiencing leg pain we are not getting any answers and he’s suffering?
My son will be 7 in a few weeks. The past 2 years he has been experiencing leg pain. It originally started out with transient synovitis. He has had 4 x-rays and 1 blood test and 1 ultra sound in the past 2 years and nothing shows up. He is constantly complaining. His left leg sometimes gives out on him when he is just walking. He does not have a limp or any swelling or redness.
I am getting really frustrated because we are not getting any answers and he’s suffering.
