When the mitral valve is leaky it is called mitral valve regugitation, it means that just after the heart squeezes and pumps blood forward, some blood will leak backward through the valve. Overtime leaky mitral valve causes health problems such as heart failure, pulmonary congestion (this means that water builds up in lungs and causes breathing problems), later leaky mitral valve can cause the fluid to build up in a whole body, for example in legs, hands, liver.... Before above mentioned problems develope, there appear some symptoms such as fainting, fatigue, weakness, low blood pressure, dizziness... So this is very serious condition and needs to be corrected, if it is not repaired on time then you may need more serious surgery which is called mitral valve replacement. Mitral valve repair and replacement are very common surgical procedures worldwide, so don't be afraid of it, a lot people have replaced or repaired mitral valves all over the world. I can't see the document you have mentioned, (please attach it again) and so I can't tell how serious your condition is, seriousness of condition depends on the degree of mitral valve regurgitation. Your cardiologist will tell the severity of your condition based on your symptoms and echocardiography results. As for price, what I could find is the website of CMC hospital and their telephone number, you can call and ask them about prices: **********. http://www.cmch-vellore.edu

Hi, I am really stressed and don't want to self diagnos and go crazy, but I have had this (pimple, ulcer, follicule infection or chancre on the side of the shaft of my penis. I don't know which one it is. I don't have medical but I am signing up on Tuesday for state medical..... The story is it appear maybe a week after a day and a half masterbation marathon I am embarrassed to say I had. It started as just a burning sensation on the side like I ripped the skin which I have done before. So I just didnt touch it. That was on a Sunday then Monday Xmas I tried to have sex with my lady and I couldn't cause of the pain and burning sensation on the skin. We started and stopped. 3 days after that in the same burning area 1 pimple formed with maybe 2 smaller ones. Very small ones... I I tried to masterbate again and it seemed as if it irritated the area and another one grew. They got to an ok size and where kind of painful. Then they grew and seemed to bust and started to go down. They look some like a chancre or a lesion when it was going down. They itch a little bit I guess that's from healing but I am freaked out. I had unprotected sex with another woman maybe a month before the night I began the marathon. I have pics please help.

Doctor's Answer

Hi, The Doppler examination shows a thrombus in the deep veins with partial recanalization. This suggests that the thrombus is of a chronic nature. The Doppler can be repeated after one month of treatment to see residual thrombus. We do not provide any prescription. For this you have to visit an internal medicine specialist.
