system: What will happen during your appointment for breast lumps?
output: Clear or bloody fluid coming out of the nipple Red skin on your breast or nipple The doctor will ask questions about your health history. They'll perform a breast exam to feel for lumps or other changes in the breast tissue and under your arms. If there's fluid coming out of your nipple, the doctor may order blood tests to check hormone levels and collect a sample to check for abnormal cells. They may also do a mammogram or ultrasound to see if the lump is solid or filled with fluid. Your doctor may order a test called a biopsy. He'll take a tiny sample of the lump with a needle or small cut and send it to a lab.
system: How often does breast tissue change?
output: Breast tissue changes during a woman's entire life. It is sensitive to changing hormone levels during the menstrual cycle.
system: Can men get breast lumps?
output: They are often found in both breasts. They can cause bleeding from the nipple. This noncancerous condition is called gynecomastia.
system: What at home solutions can help my sinuses?
output: Use a saline solution to remove allergens, irritants, and excess mucus. You can use a drugstore saline spray. Or make your own solution at home and use a nasal irrigation system like a Neti pot, a gadget that looks like a teapot. You can get one at the drugstore.
system: Can antihistamine allergy medicines treat sinus problems?
output: Antihistamine allergy medicines may help if your sinus problems are related to allergies. Over-the-counter products include cetirizine, diphenhydramine, fexofenadine, and loratadine. If your problems don't go away, talk to your doctor about getting an allergy skin test.
system: How can decongestants treat sinus problems?
output: Decongestants reduce the swelling in your nose and can ease stuffiness and sinus pressure, too. You can get them in more than one form. Here's what to look for on the ingredients list: Nasal sprays: oxymetazoline or phenylephrine Pills: phenylephrine or pseudoephedrine A word of caution: Don't use a nasal decongestant spray for more than 3 days, and don't use a decongestant you take by mouth for more than 7 days.
system: How does climate affect my sinus problems?
output: A dry climate and heated indoor air will both dry out the membranes in your nose. And when the mucus up in there dries, it gets thicker and is more likely to clog your sinuses. The result? Pain and pressure. The best solution: Get a room humidifier for your bedroom and use it while you're running the heat.
system: Will a HEPA air filter help my sinuses?
output: Should you get a HEPA air filter for your bedroom or office? That depends on what irritates your sinuses. These filters are good at removing airborne particles related to dust mites, pollen, and pet dander. But those don't just stay in the air. They settle in your carpets, upholstery, and other areas. If allergies cause your sinus problems, ask your doctor if a HEPA air filter makes sense for you.
system: How can you open up your sinuses to fight sinus problems?
output: Apply a warm, moist washcloth to your face several times a day. This can help open up spaces in your sinuses. To keep them moist, inhale steam two to four times a day. One simple way to get it done: Sit in the bathroom with a hot shower running. Drink plenty of fluids, too. That'll thin out your mucus and help you get rid of it.
system: How can I make my own saline solution for a neti pot?
output: Or make your own solution at home and use a nasal irrigation system like a Neti pot, a gadget that looks like a teapot. You can get one at the drugstore. To make your own saline mixture, mix 3 teaspoons of salt with 1 teaspoon of baking soda and store in a sterile airtight container. To use, combine about 8 ounces of lukewarm water (distilled, sterile or previously boiled) with 1 teaspoon of the mixture. Place the spout into your top nostril and gently pour the solution in. The saline water will flow through your nasal cavity into the other nostril and out. Blow your nose to get rid of remaining water. Repeat the steps on your other nostril.
system: Can you have an allergic reaction to silver fillings?
output: Allergic reactions to silver fillings are rare. Fewer than 100 cases have ever been reported, according to the American Dental Association. In these rare circumstances, mercury or one of the metals used in an amalgam restoration is thought to trigger the allergic response. Symptoms of amalgam allergy are similar to those experienced in a typical skin allergy and include skin rashes and itching. Patients who suffer amalgam allergies typically have a medical or family history of allergies to metals.
system: What are the recommended treatments for an enlarged prostate?
output: The AUA recommends the following treatment for an enlarged prostate based on the severity of symptoms: Mild symptoms that don't bother you ( AUA score 0 to 7): If you are not bothered by your symptoms, and they don't affect your daily life, watchful waiting is the best option for you. You should get regular checkups to make sure that you are not developing complications. Moderate to severe symptoms ( AUA score of 8 or more): If you are not bothered by your symptoms, you may choose watchful waiting. However, if your symptoms do start to interfere, you may choose medication, a minimally invasive procedure, or surgery. Moderate to severe symptoms ( AUA score of 8 or more) with complications: If symptoms are bothersome and you have developed complications such as inability to urinate, you may need a catheter, surgery, or other treatment.
system: What are side effects in treating enlarged prostate?
output: Side effects of treatments: Some BPH treatments cause erection problems, although that risk is low. Men who have normal erections before surgery will not likely have trouble afterward. Some treatments cause retrograde ejaculation (the man ejaculates into the bladder instead of through the urethra). Fertility can also be affected, but is still possible with newer assisted reproductive techniques.
system: When should I talk to my doctor about enlarged prostate?
output: If your enlarged prostate symptoms are mild and not bothersome, there's likely no need for treatment. One-third of men with mild BPH find that their symptoms clear up without treatment. They may just watch and wait. However, when enlarged prostate symptoms are bothersome or are affecting your quality of life or overall health, it's time to talk to your doctor about the treatment options. Together you will determine if you would benefit most from medication, a minimally invasive procedure, or surgery. It's important to talk with a doctor when you begin noticing changes in urinary function. You need to find out what's going on so you can be treated for enlarged prostate if necessary. For many men, especially those who are young when the prostate starts growing, getting early treatment can head off complications later on.
system: How can a Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) Symptom Index help you assess the symptoms of an enlarged prostate?
output: A score of 0 to 7 is considered a mild symptom score; 8 or over is considered moderate to severe. The AUA recommends the following treatment for an enlarged prostate based on the severity of symptoms: Mild symptoms that don't bother you ( AUA score 0 to 7): If you are not bothered by your symptoms, and they don't affect your daily life, watchful waiting is the best option for you. Am I ready to do something about this problem?
system: What happens after you have a urine culture?
output: Your sample goes to a lab. Drops of your pee are put in a petri dish and stored at body temperature. Over the next few days, any bacteria or yeast in the sample will multiply and grow. A lab worker will look at the germs under the microscope. Their size, shape, and color tell which types are there. The lab worker will note how many are growing. If there are no harmful germs, the culture is called ânegative.â If there are bad germs growing, it's âpositive.â The most common thing that causes UTI's is E-coli â bacteria that live in your intestines. The lab may do more testing to see which drugs have the best chance of fighting the infection.
system: How do you know if your lower leg pain is caused by a blood clot?
output: Most deep-vein blood clots happen in the lower leg or thigh. They're more likely to happen if you're inactive for long periods, like on a long flight or car ride. You're also at risk if you're overweight, or you smoke, or take certain medications. There's a chance a clot could break off into your bloodstream and travel to an artery in the lungs. If so, it could block blood flow. This is a serious condition called pulmonary embolism.
system: What can you do to treat lower leg pain caused by broken bones or sprains?
output: Try the RICE treatment: rest, ice, compression, and elevation. For a more severe sprain or a broken bone (fracture), apply ice and see your doctor right away. You may need a cast or brace. You may also need physical therapy.
system: What does recovery look like from lower leg pain caused by broken bones or sprains?
output: It will take time, but gradually you'll be able to walk comfortably, again. Go slow as you gradually increase your strength and put weight on the injured leg.
system: What can you do to treat lower-extremity peripheral arterial disease?
output: Other treatments include medications to control cholesterol, diabetes, or high blood pressure. Some people need surgery to improve blood flow to the area.

system: How do you know if you have lower-leg pain caused by a narrowed spinal canal (stenosis) and sciatica?
output: A common cause of a narrowed spinal canal is arthritis of the spine. Sometimes a herniated disc puts pressure on nearby nerve roots, which can lead to symptoms of sciatica, such as: Burning, cramping leg pain when standing or sitting Numbness Tingling Fatigue Weakness Pain may begin in your back and hip, then later extend down into your leg. Rest is often the cure for other pains of the leg, but not this one. It doesn't help sciatica.
system: What is the treatment for lower-leg pain caused by a narrowed spinal canal (stenosis) and sciatica?
output: Or take anti-inflammatories if your doctor says they're okay for you. The source of some pain is problems with your nerves. Physical therapy and stretching exercises are often useful.

system: What can help lower leg pain?
output: But you can do things at home that help, too. Or take anti-inflammatories if your doctor says they're okay for you.
system: How do I choose a pair of shoes for a 1-year-old?
output: Though you might be tempted to reach for the cutest shoes on the shelf, comfort and fit are the most important priorities for your baby's first pair of shoes. Go to a store that specializes in children's shoes and ask a salesperson to measure your baby's feet. Make sure there is enough room in the shoes for your baby's feet to grow. You'll probably need to go shoe shopping again in two or three months as your baby's feet continue to grow.
system: What happens to your baby's motor skills at the 12 month mark?
output: Your 1-year-old should be standing alone, and may even have taken those first tentative solo steps. If she hasn't, hopefully you'll have your video camera ready to capture the moment when she does. One-year-olds are pretty good at doing a few things for themselves, such as eating with their fingers, helping their parents dress them, and turning the pages of a storybook. Your baby should be starting to use a few everyday items correctly, including a spoon, telephone, and hairbrush.

In time, your notes will be like little crumbs that guide you on your way. It shifts your thoughts and helps you focus on the positive.
system: What can you do if you think negative thoughts about yourself?
output: Tell yourself that story instead. Ask your inner voice for proof. Is it right or just a cranky loudmouth? Try to reframe whatever triggered it. If someone just treated you poorly, it may not really be about you. Maybe they're under a lot of stress and you just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. You might want to get back to your hobbies.
