Hi lybrate-user.
See, worrying is something that you decide. Burt let me tell you the fact that god has given spare organs for every vital organs like 2 eyes, two kidneys, 2 ears, 2 nose cavities, 2 testes, 2 tonsils, 2 hands, 2 feet and what not. So there is nothing to be worried about having single testes. And also, to kill somebody, one gun with one bullet is enough.
Hope it was helpful.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
An inguinal hernia occurs when tissue, such as part of the intestine, protrudes through a weak spot in the abdominal muscles. The resulting bulge can be painful, especially when you cough, bend over or lift a heavy object. However, many hernias do not cause pain. An inguinal hernia isn't necessarily dangerous.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a treatment plan for you.

Hello ,
probably your father is suffering from congenital hiatus hernia. If surgery is not required (as told by the endoscopist) medical therapy is sufficient to take of symptoms.

Hello
People with an active infection can take medications to kill the worms in the blood. These medications stop the spread of the illness to others, but they do not completely kill off all the parasites.
Treatment for elephantiasis includes:
antiparasitic drugs, such as diethylcarbamazine (DEC), mectizan, and albendazole (Albenza)
using good hygiene to clean the affected areas
elevating the affected areas
caring for wounds in the affected areas

Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine that most often is diagnosed in adolescents. While scoliosis can occur in people with conditions such as cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy, the cause of most childhood scoliosis is unknown.
Most cases of scoliosis are mild, but some curves worsen as children grow. Severe scoliosis can be disabling. An especially severe spinal curve can reduce the amount of space within the chest, making it difficult for the lungs to function properly.

The hernia is located and separated from the tissues around it. The hernia sac is removed or the hernia is gently pushed back into your abdomen. The surgeon then closes your weakened abdominal muscles with stitches. Often a piece of mesh is also sewn into place to strengthen your abdominal wall.

There is no medication that can treat hernia whether it is allopathic or homeopathic. Surgery is the definitive option to treat the protruding organ and tear in the tissues. Homeopathic medicines may prevent hernia symptoms from getting worse.
