Sir im Raja Gopal suffering with OCD. Predominantly fearing of fobhia of HIV. Example if any wound /blood see on any persons hand  who may be my friend or any person (at shops or hotels) whom I have to associate, my self fearing that, if I touch places where they have touched or if I shake hand them, HIV may transmit. Further myself very much afraid to to go to hospital bcz different type of patients use to visit, hence if I touch/seat at reception HIV may transmit, immediately after comming from hospital I use to have complete bath reluctant to seat any place in my flat. Even reluctant to touch doctor prescription that blood might have touch that, it may leads to HIV. After getting information form different sources, I understood that none of above reason leads to transmission of HIV, but my mind not accepting that fact until unless I use handeash(dettol) or sanitizer. Please help me out to come out of that bcz my life became so measurable.

My daughter has cough the pedia advised for salbutamol nebule three times a day. But one of my relatives said it causes thinning of the lung tissue itself as told by one of her doctors. I don't know if she fully understood the explanation to her since she's not in the medical profession but I am. I have done tons of research of it explaining about salbutamol's causes but there's none. I may have believe her if it's corticosteroid inhalations she's pertaining to. Since even then it causes thinning of skin when applied topical. You may then deduce to the fact that it can affect thinning of lung tissues too. But it's merely salbutamol we're talking about. Should i be worried about this? My daughter has turned 3 yrs old this month. I have not asked her pedia yet though her opinion bothers me little bit. Is there someone who could give a research based explanation to me before i'll succumb to her own idea about salbutamol? She's very adamant that it gets into my nerves.thanks a lot

Dear Doctor, My eyelids are so swelled from last 15-20 days, specially when I wake up and they're all puffy. And after 8-9 hours swelling gets little less visible as compared to in the morning, but doesn't get better completely. Every now and then, they're so swollen that it looks like a ping-pong ball has been cut in half and inserted under my eyelid. I can't figure out what makes this happen. I haven't changed anything (make-up, pillow, detergent, etc.) In fact I'm not wearing any make up at all from last 2-3 months. I went to meet doctor as well, he suggested me to get my thyroid and kidney tests done. Reports are normal. Also my eye sight is absolutely fine. He said he's not sure what the problem is. He game me these 3 medicine, said it could be allergy. Flarex Alcon, Chlorosun-H eye ointment, and Levosyd tablets. I have completed the course but I don't see even 1% improvement. Please help!

I'm 22 & I'm in a relationship with a girl since the last 2 & a half years. I've been in short relationships with a couple of girls in past too. Due to childhood coercion incidences with male partners like cousins & friends, I've lately realised that I've been keen towards males too & that I'm a bisexual. I've engaged myself in intimate activities with strange guys too. I've never been able to accept the fact & I've always wanted to prove myself to be straight but couldn't help because of the sexual needs. I come from a very sound family & can't afford to carry this image of mine. I'm sandwiched between who i really am and what i want to be. It has surely affected my current relationship, which i plan to take ahead very seriously. Also I'm pressurised with a lot of business, religious & social responsibilities & I'm not able to cater to them & turn out to be an in-confident individual. I need help!

I have been sharing my room with 3 roommates. I am an architecture student and in my 4th year. It is already that we all are burdened with huge sum of work daily and reaching hostel makes me more tired and frustrated. I am a friendly person naturally but have lost good terms with roomies. They are jealous of my college performance and have a lot of problem with the fact that i am in a relationship with the topper of our batch. They are usually harsh with their behaviour and leave no corner to blame/accuse/hurt me anytime. I always wonder what have i actually done to them. I have spoken to them a lot of time about this matter but they have never tried to solve anything. I am tired of trying to make things okay. This destroys my mental peace and is hampering my mood and mind and work. I am living in a negative surrounding and still trying to figure out my mistake. It just never works! I am becoming depressed and upset. I want to be peppy again. Please help.

Earlier this year, in February I rolled my left ankle while playing football. Initially it looked a normal sprain but the pain and swelling was too much and remained same for 2 days. I got an x-ray done and consulted an orthopedic doctor. He said there's a damage to the 'soft tissues or ligaments' around ankle. The leg was put in plaster for first three weeks and i've been using Tynor ankle binder ever since removing the plaster. doc had said it'll take total of 45-50 days to be able to ease back into sports activities. but In fact it took me over 60 days to even walk without crutches. I slowly resumed playing football after nearly 4 months of proper rest since the injury. Today its been over 5 months and i still experience occasional pain and discomfort in the ankle. How sever was my injury and what should i do about it now? Do i need any special exercises or a therapy?

I'm a final year student pursuing my bachelor's of technology degree in Engineering Physics at Delhi Technological University. I've always wanted to contribute to the science community and pursue research as my career. And now, when the time has finally come, I feel as if I don't know physics anymore. I can solve any problem pertaining to mathematical and physical sciences but I don't really know what it is that I end up feeling like I don't know these sciences the way I used to know before. As a matter of fact, I have always been among the top students when it comes to physics; given my Physics score for JEE Advance was 115/120. Also, I have done well in all my exams but it doesn't feel the same anymore. And not knowing what the reason is, makes it all the more disturbing and annoying. And the consequences are all extremely negative as I am unable to focus on my health, and academics. In short my efficiency and productivity has hit the lowest of levels & a fightback seems impossible.
