My kids are 12 and 9. Since schools in mumbai have no space. They are mostly indoors. Am so worried about their bone growth because of no vit d from sunlight. Giving arachitol 60,000 syrup from few weeks. What should I do? Will their bone health be ok, can we strengthen their bones still?

Hi lybrate-user
from the information you have provided I could only understand that you are worried for your kids' health and have started vit d syrup.
However you have not mentioned any vit d testing been done or your kids having any symptoms.
Please review back with vit d reports and your kids' symptoms.

Liver cancer treatment is multidisciplinary with many new treatments now available which usually works better than only soranib. It requires full assessment of liver function and stage of the disease.

Sorry to know about your condition. The dose of sorafenib you are taking is lower than regular dosage. But please discuss this with your treating oncologist as he can convey better as to the reasons for such prescription.

Asked for female, 24 years old from Trivandrum

I'm 22 years old ,my family include me, my father and mother. We have same blood group b positive. Someone has said that if a family has same blood group the next generation .that means my child will have some defect. Is there any truth in this or is it just a myth?

No it is not truth.
Blood group is not related to defects.
If you have faulty genes then it can cause defects.

How would a diagnosis of both a benign pituitary tumor (microadenoma) and arrhythmia generally affect life expectancy and general health in the future for a 25 year old female? Of course this will depend very much on the specifics of each case, but should you in the average case expect to be able to live a full normal life? My understanding is that both conditions generally can be treated quite well separately, but is this no longer the case when being diagnosed with both simultaneously?

General Physician•Delhi

Almost all pituitary tumors are benign (not cancer) glandular tumors called pituitary adenomas. These tumors are called benign because they don't spread to other parts of the body, like cancers can. Pituitary cancers (called pituitary carcinomas) are very rare. But we have to look into the details of the problem.
Let's have a detailed discussion to Ensure proper treatment.

I have cross bite did I reject in ssb interview?Please suggest something for that.

Dr. Saurabh Sinha88%(46 ratings)

Crossbite most probably wont be a reason for rejection in ssb. Though it is definitely treatable with braces. You should get it corrected for future inconvenience to your teeth and other oral structures.

I have been treated for pituitary tumour and craniopharyngioma. My sperm count was zero coz of pituitary tumour. It was normal in teen age, 18 to 25. Nil from 25 to 31. I'm 32 now and I see semen when I masturbate. Doctor has told that I will not have sperm production for my life. But now I see semen coming like before. Is this possible.

If your tumor has been cured, then yes semen production is possible again.
Also to enhance production of semen, I suggest you for ayurveda vaajikaran treatment. Take care.

I have always been suspicious but never asked i've never been commented negatively whenever I was x-rayed but I have noticed every bone in my body is like it has a layer of silly putty in that I can remold or indent a certain portion of every bone material and it will stay indented until I reform it to its original shape.

It looks like you are anaemic. And also you have to check with your vitamin and calcium, if the bones are weak then automatically the pain gets triggered more as there is less energy during any metabolic activity.
