A cyst like water drop on eye.

Respected Sir, My mother is experiencing a cyst on the eye which looks like a water drop. The first doctor did some minor operation with a needle for 10 mins and the eye was clear. After few days it emerged again. So we consulted a different doctor and the doctor prescribed some meds and said it will be clear once we are done with the medicines (drops) but nothing worked. Today we revisited the doctor and he said that a operation is required with Biopsy. We are very tensed after hearing the fact of Biopsy. Prescriptions are attached herewith. Please help. Thanks and Rgds

Advice on UTI infection

I am 48, healthy woman. I had a sudden onset of bladder pressure and blood in my urine. I did not have fever. My doctor prescribed me a few days of antibiotics: Nitrofurantoin. The symptoms have subsided but I feel flushed and lethargic and have muscle ache. But not signficanlty. I was told today the bacteria was in fact citrobacter and now I am taking Trimethoprim (200mg x 2 per day for 3 days). It seems this bacteria is rare in healthy women and only found in elderly patients or people with ve

Ayurvedic treatment for dermatitis

Hello! Is there an ayurvedic alternative to Betnovate C ointment? I get contact dermatitis whenever I use soap a lot and Betnovate C gives relief and clears the patches. But I dont like the fact that it stains the bedsheet and that I need to protect my eyes as well or prevent it from getting inside my mouth. Is there an ointment in medicine that can do the same job without staining the bedsheets or clothes and that is safe for eyes as well? Thanks

Palpitations

I've been having palpitations for about a year now. It could be a side effect of risperidone. i've been taking it for 2/3 years and the dose was increased last year. they're mainly at night but sometimes after exercise or just when i'm sitting. my doctor puts it down to anxiety, i have been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder but i wasn't really anxious when it started. in fact it's making my anxiety worse. i can also sometimes feel my pulse in the heel of my left foot.

Eye problem

I washed my room with bare hands using the floor cleaning disinfectant liquid. Thereafter I forgot to wash my hands and got busy in other works. After sometime I went to wash my face and washed my face without realizing the fact that I had not washed my hands. My eyes turned red immediately. Now the redness is gone. I applied some eye drops. Are my eyes okey? Will my eye get damaged? What should I do now? Is there anything to worry?

Inability to Cry

The internet was romanticizing mental illnesses and I used to think it was cool to have depression. Whenever I feel a lil stressed, I'd claim that I'm depressed. But now I know the fact and now...I can't cry. No matter how stressed I am, I feel empty and numb. The emptiness would sometimes scare me and I can't breathe for a little. I Googled it and all the articles were about depression. I keep on telling myself that I'm not. I feel like I am just because I used to romanticize it...or am I?

Mental health issues

A very close friend of mine has changed a lot in the past few months. It seems as if he looks at everything with suspicion. He is always thinking about something. He forgets simple things and it looks like he's high even when he is not. He tries to cut off from everything around him. Whenever someone talks to him, he doesn't respond immediately. It is as if he takes 5-10 seconds to realise whats going on around him. I know for sure he's not doing it deliberately and he denies the fact that his mental health has deteriorated when each and everyone around him believes otherwise. Should we be worried ?
