Culture Aerobic (OT Swabs) Health Feed

I was feeling pain in my scrotum sometimes approx 1-2 times a month so I went to a doctor and he told me to do tests sonography, urine and semen analysis. In sonography it is diagnosed that I have left sided varicocele and urine test was normal but in semen test it was written that "sample is sterile on culture after 48 hrs of aerobic incubation at 37°C" Today I went to SRL Lab to do that semen test again and I got the report but I am bot able to completely understand what the report says. If my report says that my sperm is infertile then is there any way that it can get cured or my varicocele get cured. I have read about varicocele embolization online but am not sure about it Kindly guide me Thank you.

"sample is sterile on culture after 48 hrs of aerobic incubation at 37°C" means there are no infective germs- that is good. As Most of medical challanges need doctor to listen to detailed medical history in form of questions and answers, examination of patient and sometimes reports so meet concerned doctor.- doctor who had advised you.

Does our cardiac muscle normally go into anaerobic respiration as it only does aerobic respiration please explain.
Respiration involves breathing in fresh air having oxygen, to help our bodies function, and breathing out carbon dioxide to be taken by plants as one of the foods besides water and sunshine. Heart muscles are part of body, when muscle takes in oxygen, it is aerobic, when muscle gives back carbon dioxide it is anerobic.

I had tonsil stones so I decided to take them out using cotton swabs. In the process I pressed too hard on the tonsil and it started bleeding. I did’t think too much of it as it has happened before. After two days. I checked on my tonsils and there was a red spot where the bleeding has occurred. On the edge of the red spot was white and i’m not sure if I should be worried or not.

Tonsil stones, also called tonsilloliths, are small balls of debris that form in the pockets if your tonsils. If you try to dislodge a tonsil stone, usually with a cotton swab, you might notice a little blood after the stone comes out. Symptoms of tonsil stones include: white or yellow spots or patches on your tonsils. Let's have a detailed discussion for better advice and medication plan.

Sterile after 48 hours of aerobic incubation: this phrase likely refers to a culture or microbiology test where a sample is incubated aerobically (with exposure to air) for 48 hours to check for bacterial or fungal growth. If the sample remains sterile after this period, it means that no significant microbial contamination was detected during the incubation period. Sperm count 70 million, mobility 20%: a sperm count of 70 million is generally considered within the normal range. However, a sperm mobility (motility) rate of 20% is lower than the typical reference range (which is often around 40% or higher). While it's still possible to achieve pregnancy with a 20% motility rate, higher motility is generally more favorable. Treatment options might include lifestyle changes, supplements, or medications. Consulting with a healthcare professional or a fertility specialist is crucial to determine the most appropriate course of action based on your individual situation. Timing of semen test after intercourse: the timing between intercourse and a semen analysis can influence the results. A 10-day gap between intercourse and the test may not provide the most accurate representation of the current sperm parameters. Sperm parameters can vary, and it's often recommended to have the semen analysis done within 2-7 days after the last ejaculation to get a more accurate reflection of sperm quality. Having the test done within 3-4 days after intercourse is a common guideline to ensure that the sample represents the most recent sperm production. The 10-day gap may lead to less accurate results regarding current sperm quality. Regards Dr. Ms. haque.
