Fibrosis

Hi, I am suffering from a UTI. I have been prescribed a dose of Martifur along with Moxif and Urispas. I have come to know that Martifur may cause pulmonary fibrosis. Is a course of Martifur over a week sufficiently harmful to cause pulmonary fibrosis? Should I continue taking Martifur or consult my doctor for some alternative medicine? My age is 25years, I have been taking these medicines for two days.

Hi, The side effect is not very common and specially in young people so you can take the drug to complete the course of the treatment.The drug is very effective although not given routinely these days but still no problems with drug and you can complete your treatment course for now. ...

i had a perianal abscess operation around 5 weeks back. I have been off antibiotics and the regular dressings for around 10 days. However, I still have pain around that area as well as regular little discharge of pus from the wound. .

hi bobby, your perianal abscess surgery would take atleast 2-3 weeks to heal and slowly the soreness and pain will come down day by day as the wound heals. regular dressings especially after motions is the key to successful healing.

hello. I have developed a mouth ulcer on the gums towards the back of the wisdom teeth. The affected area is pale whitish in colur and pains quite a lot. I have been using filter khaini for the last couple of years and so i thought if this could be Oral Submucuous Fibrosis. But other functions seem to be normal like i have a inter incisinal opening of 3.6cm and dont notice and bands inside the cheeks. This ulcer has been there for the last three days and has not decreased much. I'm taking Antoxid HC and becosules capsules since last three days. Please advise on what can be done in this situation

Just get an Xray done. Stop khaini. It could be traumatic ulcer too caused due to the upper wisdom tooth. If required you may have to get your wisdom teeth removed dependong on the Xray and diagnosis by your dentist ...
