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 Uday Ji,

Pilonidal sinus is a condition in which a small tunnel or tract forms under the skin, typically near the tailbone. It is often caused by ingrown hairs or prolonged sitting and can lead to discomfort, swelling, and sometimes infection.

Exploration of the sinus tract is a common procedure to diagnose the extent of the sinus and to guide treatment. Depending on the case, treatment may include cleaning, drainage, or surgical removal of the tract to prevent recurrence. Minimally invasive laser procedures are also available, which can result in faster healing and less discomfort.

It’s best to consult with a surgeon to determine the appropriate treatment for your condition. We can help you get the best treatment done.

Hello Pavan Ji,

Symptoms:

• Pain and swelling near the tailbone
• Redness and pus discharge (in case of infection)
• Fever (if the infection is severe)

Treatment Options:

1. Non-Surgical: In early stages, antibiotics and keeping the area clean can help prevent infection.
2. Surgical Options:

   • Surgical Excision: Removes the sinus tract to prevent recurrence.
   • Flap Surgery: Recommended for recurrent cases, where the wound is closed using nearby tissue.

Home Care Tips:

• Maintain hygiene by regularly cleaning the area.

Hello Yogesh Ji,

Thank you for sharing your concern. It seems like you're dealing with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), mucus discharge, and have been diagnosed with colonic arteriovenous malformation (AVM) following your colonoscopy. Let's break down the medications prescribed:

• Colospa Retard is often used to relieve IBS symptoms by relaxing the muscles of the intestines, reducing cramps, and controlling abdominal pain.
• Econorm Capsules contain probiotics that help restore the natural balance of bacteria in the gut. This can be helpful in managing diarrhoea or mucus discharge often associated with IBS.
• Bandy Plus is an antiparasitic medication, possibly prescribed to ensure there are no underlying parasitic infections contributing to your symptoms.

Treatment for colonic AVM depends on the severity and symptoms. Mild cases may require monitoring, while more severe cases might need procedures like endoscopic therapy or even surgery. Please consult with your gastroenterologist to discuss the appropriate line of treatment for AVM.

In the meantime, ensure you're following a suitable IBS-friendly diet, managing stress, and sticking to the medication regimen as prescribed by your doctor. If symptoms persist or worsen, it’s important to follow up for further evaluation.

Hello Ms Yogini,

Temporal swelling involving the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) can be associated with several conditions. Here are some possible causes and steps you can take:

1. TMJ Disorders: These can cause pain and swelling in the jaw area, often linked to jaw clenching, arthritis, or misalignment. Treatment options include applying warm compresses, using over-the-counter pain relievers, and practising relaxation techniques.

2. Infections: Infections of the TMJ or surrounding areas can cause swelling. Antibiotics may be needed if an infection is present, so a visit to a healthcare provider is essential.

3. Inflammatory Conditions: Conditions like rheumatoid arthritis can affect the TMJ, leading to swelling and pain. Your doctor might recommend anti-inflammatory medications and physical therapy.

4. Dental Issues: Sometimes, dental problems like abscesses can cause swelling near the TMJ. Consult a dentist to ensure there are no underlying dental issues.

Consult a Specialist: For an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment, it’s important to see a healthcare provider, such as a dentist or an oral and maxillofacial specialist. They can perform a thorough examination and recommend the best course of action.

We hope you find relief soon!
