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.

Firstly I am 17 years old, weight 55 kg so I have inguinal hernia and undescended testis because of hernia it displaced from scrotum. Right testis was present in scrotum at age 13. Hernia problem is from 3 years so my problem is some before 15-20 days I was just sitting on chair suddenly a slight sharp throbbing pain started in the left testis and inner thigh. I thought it is not much pain so I waited and after 3-4 hours it gone but on after that my erections almost gone for 2 days. So in fear of losing my this remaining one testis on third day I masturbated to check so my semen quantity was decreased to half but my erections started but not like previous normal ones. Even if I masturbate with gap of 1 month to check if testis is okay still quantity if half and not normal erections. So few days ago for my inguinal hernia and undescended testis operation urologist checked and varicocele was found left testis in physical examination but today in doppler ultrasound it is not found. This is my doppler ultrasound (scrotum) report right scrotal sac shows herniated omentum through the inguinal canal with the defect measuring approximately 16-17 mm with the neck lying medical to the inferior to epigastric vessels suggestive of direct inguinal-scrotal hernia. Right testis is not seen in the scrotum and is localised in the right inguinal canal and measuring approximately 2.9 x 1.0 cms. It shows normal intraparenchymal vascularity. Left left testis measures 3.7 x 1.8 cms is normal in size and ecotexture. No focal lesion seen. No abnormal fluid collection seen. So please tell me about this problem I am in tension.

You need surgery for undescended testis (orchidopexy) and inguinal hernia (lichtenstein tension-free mesh inguinal hernioplasty).

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. But I want to know what is the exact problem that your father is suffering which brought him to the doctor? If it is cough, then he needs a detailed evaluation at his age. Regarding use of pantoprazole or omeprzole or any of these proton pump inhibitors, they are more or less quite similar in actions. So do not wor...more

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.
