Dental treatment

26 Year Old otherwise healthy Currently being treated for a skin fungal infection around groin /bum area. Thankfully starting to settle and going away. Though this has exposed a cut that is vertical in nature running north of my anus and continues up a few cm up. Sometimes a sharp feeling when passing

But after few days tooth infection started, I had to run to an emergency dental clinic for tooth infection treatment(https://www.emergency-dental-365.com/procedures/abscess-tooth/). Thank God! It was open and I got treated immediately.

Hello everyone, I’m not use to being on forums but I feel so lost and alone, I don’t know who else to turn to. I’m 28 years old and the oldest daughter of my family. We recently found out my mom (52) is at her end stage of renal disease. She just had a catheter inserted to prepare for Peritoneal Dialysis

OK... So because I didn't do stretches I am very sore after my first run. Today is day 2 of the soreness so I'm hoping it will ease up tomorrow which is when I have planned my second run. If I am still sore do I still go running? I'm assuming I will be much less sore tomorrow but just checking I won't

Has anyone used Topiramate for pain relief, has it been effective? Why were you put on that instead of others? I have had to come off of Noratriptyline.

Not sure if this has been posted yet. Provenge in combo with Enzalutamide reduces risk of death by 45%. Median OS is 14.5 months vs. just 4 months with Provenge alone (This is what I recall, please tell me if it is significantly different). https://www.urotoday.com/conference-highlights/asco-gu-2020/

I have never been properly tested for IBS but a nurse at my GP surgery said she thought I had IBS and advised me to go on a low FODMAP diet. She also prescribed Mebeverine, to be taken 20 minutes before each meal. I followed her advice for 3 months but still suffered quite bad belly aches sometimes -

Hi I just started otezla today. Has anyone had mouth ulcers for 8 months with no relief. I am so tired and frustrated.

Am planning to interview an Otolaryngologist this Saturday morning as part of an educational website I am building on Otosclerosis. He has done more than 125 surgeries for Otosclerosis. Please post suggestions for questions here. Obviously, questions that are useful for the wide audience would be better

Pretty sure I have a a fistula and worried about what comes next. I have an appt next month with the consultant

I need some dental treatment e.g. tooth extraction, filling and crown probably. Do I need to be cautious with the drugs I am given for pain relief or 'numbing' the mouth etc. I currently take Levothyroxine only. Thanks

Hello, Just wondering if anyone has any mouth/tongue issues with any autoimmune issues. Last few months my mouth is dry/ sore feels like a sore throat occasionally but it’s mainly irritated a lot of the time, my tongue I originally thought was thrush, I’ve tried treatment from the doctoes along side

People with chronic illness that affects the immune system, such as many forms of inflammatory arthritis, are understandably worried — if not downright freaking out — about the spread of this new virus. Here’s what infectious disease experts and rheumatologists want you to know. Being immunocompromised

Hi for like maybe 9 months I haven't been able to taste anything properly. Can kind of taste sweets. Had a healthy burger 🍔 earlier I tasted the mustard I put on it and sort of tasted the relish but didn't really taste the burger. It's hard to eat when you don't taste anything. I don't enjoy it

The vitamins that I take give me a bad taste in my mouth but I have found that peppermint chewing gum clears it completely! Wonderful! Stops me eating chocolate when I get the craving too! Thought I would share! Hope everyone is OK and staying safe xxxx

Hi everybody. I suffer from IBS and an IgA deficiency. I'm 58 and by now all my mucous membranes have deteriorated from the chronic inflammation. I have GI tract problems but also pretty much everywhere else. I also live with a lot of pain from chronic inflammation. If anyone has solutions how to diminish

Hi everyone - hope you are all staying safe and well. I am currently off all medication - have been since beginning of Dec 2019. It seems that since I stopped having periods things have gone into remission. I just want to ask all a question. I had a seizure in 2011 and ever since I have experienced occasionally

Hi friends, do any of you suffer with those white spots on tonsils like the oral thrush thing? I often tend to develop these since long back even before the detection of SLE. And still it is happening. Sometimes it goes away itself and sometimes it turns up too painful and gross.

Dear Mrs Howard I was sad hearing about your travails getting treatment for RLS. Yes buprenorphine is one of the opioids used for refractory RLS with reasonably good results. It tends to get used after methadone is tried, but it is very effective in many patients. We have long term experience

I tested positive for chlamydia a year ago and took the medication and all was fine. But I then slept with the person who gave me it again (stupid I know) but I thought they had got rid of it like I did. Then 10 months on they told me they still had it so of course I went to get tested and I have a new
