Hello Sabita Ji,
Feeling uncomfortable while sleeping during pregnancy is quite common, especially as your baby grows and your body undergoes changes. Here are some tips to help you sleep better:
Try sleeping on your left side. It improves blood flow to your baby and reduces pressure on your back and organs.
For extra comfort, use pillows to support your belly and back. You can also place a pillow between your knees. A U-shaped or C-shaped pregnancy pillow can provide full-body support and help you find a comfortable position.
Avoid Lying on Your Back, as sleeping on your back can compress major blood vessels and cause discomfort or dizziness.
Drink plenty of water during the day but reduce intake before bedtime to minimize nighttime bathroom trips.
Gentle prenatal yoga or stretching can ease muscle tension and improve sleep quality.
Avoid eating heavy or spicy meals close to bedtime. Sleep with your upper body slightly elevated to prevent acid reflux.
If you continue feeling uncomfortable or experience persistent pain, insomnia, or any unusual symptoms, consult your obstetrician for personalized advice.
Hello Abhay Ji,
Phimosis is a condition where the foreskin is too tight to be pulled back over the head of the penis.
Some signs that might suggest phimosis include:
Difficulty or inability to retract the foreskin fully when erect or flaccid.
Pain or tightness when attempting to pull back the foreskin.
Repeated infections or irritation in the area.
However, if you can retract your foreskin without significant pain or difficulty, you may be fine. Some men naturally have tighter foreskins that don’t cause issues or require treatment.
Virtual Consultation Support
We can help you with a virtual (online) consultation with a specialist who can assess your condition and determine if you have phimosis. Based on this assessment, the specialist can suggest the best treatment options for you.
Hello Ankur ji,
At 16, experiencing changes in your chest, including the appearance of larger or more noticeable nipples, is often a normal part of puberty. This condition is sometimes called pseudo gynecomastia and can happen because of hormonal changes that temporarily cause the breast tissue to enlarge. It's usually common and often goes away as hormone levels stabilize.
Here are some steps to consider
If you're seeking more information or support, HexaHealth offers confidential and expert consultations to help address concerns like gynecomastia. Their specialists can guide you on whether your symptoms are part of normal growth or if any treatment might be needed.

Hello Nirma Ji,
Hypospadias is typically corrected through surgery, which is often best performed between 6 months and 18 months of age. However, surgery can still be successful if done later, and your son’s age is still within an acceptable range for treatment. Pediatric urology surgeons are highly specialized in performing this procedure on young children.
The surgery involves reconstructing the urethra to place the opening at the correct position on the penis. This procedure is usually done under general anaesthesia, and most children can go home the same day. Recovery typically involves a few weeks, during which the child may have a small tube (catheter) to assist with urination while healing, along with some mild restrictions on activities to prevent strain on the surgical site.
For complete guidance and access to top hospitals and experienced pediatric urology surgeons, contact HexaHealth.

Hello Maneesha Ji,
Aapke symptoms dekhte hue lagta hai ki aapko overall health aur skincare ke liye kuch lifestyle changes aur medical advice ki zaroorat ho sakti hai. Yahan kuch suggestions hain jo aapke liye madadgar ho sakte hain:
To support overall health, include nutrient-rich foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Consider foods high in iron, zinc, and B vitamins to improve energy, appetite, hair health, and skin clarity.
Drink plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated, which benefits energy levels, skin, and general well-being.
Schedule a check-up to assess blood levels (such as iron, vitamin B12, and blood sugar) and rule out any deficiencies or imbalances contributing to symptoms like dizziness, hair loss, or low appetite.
Incorporate light exercise, such as daily walks or stretching, to improve circulation, boost energy, and support overall physical health.
Aim for 7-8 hours of sleep and practice stress-relief techniques (like deep breathing or meditation), as stress and lack of sleep can worsen symptoms like hair fall, appetite loss, and skin issues.
For detailed concerns, please visit a general physician and get your basic medical tests done so that treatment can be advised accordingly.
Hello Ehtasham Ji,

Hello Islam Ji,
Kindly specify your exact concern regarding the kidney transplant.
A kidney transplant is a surgical procedure where a diseased or failing kidney is replaced with a healthy kidney from a donor. This is often recommended for patients with end-stage kidney disease or severe chronic kidney failure when other treatments, like dialysis, are no longer effective in managing the condition.
Key Points:
Before a transplant, patients undergo extensive testing to ensure they are a good candidate. This includes blood tests, imaging, and compatibility matching with potential donors.
Types of Donors:
Procedure: The new kidney is surgically placed in the lower abdomen and connected to the blood vessels and bladder. The diseased kidneys are usually left in place unless there's an infection or other complications.
Recovery and Aftercare: Patients typically stay in the hospital for about 10-15 days post-surgery and require close follow-up. Immunosuppressive medications are necessary for life to prevent the body from rejecting the new kidney.
Kidney transplants have a high success rate and greatly improve quality of life, often eliminating the need for dialysis.
For more personalized guidance and help finding the best kidney transplant facilities, contact HexaHealth.
Hello Shubhangi,
We understand your concern and advise you to have a thorough medical checkup and examination with a gynaecologist or fertility expert. Once we know the exact cause of your inability to conceive, we can help you with the right treatment plan.
Here are a few points to consider:
Sometimes, PCOD medications need to be adjusted. If the current treatment isn't effective, speak to your doctor about alternative medications or dosages.
Regular exercise, a balanced diet, managing stress, and taking supplements like Folic Acid and Inositol can make a significant difference. For some, even modest weight loss can improve hormone balance and fertility.
If conception is still difficult, options like ovulation induction, IUI, or IVF might help. Consulting a fertility specialist is a good next step.
PCOD management can be complex, but with the right adjustments, many women see positive results.

Hello Shahejad Ji,
Swelling in the hands and feet, difficulty breathing, and unbalanced diabetes levels are often linked to advanced kidney issues. The kidneys help regulate fluid levels in the body. When kidney function declines, excess fluid can build up, leading to swelling and breathing difficulties.
Given her current symptoms and medical history, it would be best to have her evaluated by a nephrologist or a specialist as soon as possible. She may need further treatment, which could include dialysis to help manage fluid overload and support her kidney function, as well as close monitoring of her blood sugar levels to keep her diabetes in check. If she’s having difficulty breathing, please seek immediate medical attention, as it could indicate fluid accumulation in her lungs.
We’re here to help you find a Nephrology / Urology expert or manage any questions you have about her treatment options.
Hello Rashmi Ji,

Hello Rajiv Ji,
Swelling in the penis can be caused by several factors, including infections, allergic reactions, or injuries. Since it started suddenly, it’s best to see a healthcare provider to get it checked and identify the exact cause.
