Hello i had my no 48 wisdom tooth removed on thursday morning and its been nearly 3 days now. What i wanted to know was i have noticed yesterday and today that the gum which had folded over the extraction site has receeded and left behind a thin white strand of tissue. is this a normal part of the healing process. I am not in any pain and have not smoked since the day of extraction (before). Also i know your advice will be to stop permanently but how long should i wait till i can smoke again

The tissue tag should resolve in 7-14 days max. rinse with warm water (mix in salt) 3-5 times a day to help keep the wound clean. smoking is a personal choice. IF you truly have NOT smoked post extraction you may start now. ...

Hello. I am 35 have ENT problems- I have had tonsillitis many times as a child and quinsy about 6 times. Following a bad time with the last quinsy I am now booked in gor a tonsillectomy on Thursday morning. My other symptoms are excessive mucus in my throat which I get out and get rid of. I have been diagnosed with polyps in my sinuses. I have been told I have a lot of scaring from the quinsy's and a tonsillectomy will not be easy due to bleeding etc. From my point of view I feel having this operation is prompt and I haven't been examined thoroughly to see if it is something else causing the abcesses. The thing is reading up about quinsy- they form after a bout of streptococcus or untreated tonsillitis. But when I get one, it can come on suddenly within hours- a gland on the left hand side of my neck swells and then within hours it hurts, stinks and I have pain all in my ear too. So I eat toast cooked about 3times so extremely hard and sharp and cry whilst swallowing it- hoping it burst and relieves the pressure. That always worked until last time and I got worse after it burst and got hospitalised for treatment. They had never treated me before or known the way it develops and now want to take my tonsils out. I have scared tissue now- surgery will be hard- then I may get more after (my throat is already tight) and if it is my Weber gland at fault having a tonsillectomy will not stop the abscess from forming again. What should I do?

LASER Surgery is safe, bloodless and minimal (if any) scarring ...

after i wipe myself after peeing i see a light yellow color on the.tissue paper is it norma

If you only see the discharge after peeing, probably it is only the urine you are seeing. But if you see the yellowish discharge often and in your underwear it might be a sign of infection. It is recommended that you undergo papsmear and gramstain o vaginal discharge to diagnose any infection. ...

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. . The histopathology report mentioned the following: Nature of Material received: Left perineal abscess wall Gross description: Received a single greyish brown congested irregular ring 1.7 x 1.5 x 1 cm Microscopic description: Biopsy shows fibrosis in skeletal muscle and adipose tissue.

Hi, If you still have pain and pus discharge around that area then , either the infection is there again because it was not cleared properly( the pus drainage was not done properly ) or either it might have formed again because you might be having some co exsistent problem which probably went un diagnosed . Are you a diabetic ? Any other problem you might be having or any disease treatment you might have taken for pretty long in past ? Treatment givento you otherwise medically was fine no pro ...

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. The very fact that your pus c/s report mentions E.coli, I just want to make you aware that these bacteria are from the large intestine. The basic question is from where did the bacteria get into the perianal area?? the answer is that there is a small hole in the anus ...

I recently had a miscarriage and had to go to the ER due to the amount of bleeding I had. I just found a small round lump in my breast closer to the chest but on the side. I also have implants. I never felt this lump before and check quite often because today I'm 42. Could it be related to the miscarriage? my body basically thought it had a baby and I produced some milk along with the contractions and dilation I had during the miscarriage. I don't know if I should be concerned. I haven't had a mammogram in years and do have dense tissue.

No it is not related to miscarriage. Please get mammogram and sonography of breast. ...

Period was late 4 - 5 days, then I had sudden cramping and thought it was my period symptom. Went to the ladies and realized I had passed out a lot of water like liquid on my panty liner. Later in the evening, cramping became bad, went to toilet to check, I had passed out a jelly bloody like tissue that is quite huge like a small air balloon....(it's not blood clot) and went hospital. At hospital, nurses did a pregnancy urine test but results were negative. Question: Can I pass out gestational say due to maybe some blighted ovum case but urine test still show as negative ....hcg levels low?? I had a miscarriage before just 1.4yrs ago where baby was 3 months then suddenly no heartbeat and had to perform a d/c.

If pregnancy test done on same day and negative and serum beta hcg test low, can be biochemical pregnacy . Ectopic pregnancy should be ruled out. Best thing could have been biopsy of the sac like thing which was expelled out. It can also be a decidual cast.U should also get a scan done which is to be interpreted in accordance with b hcg report ...
