Asked By : Jayf1970

Asked on : 29 Apr 2012   

Hi Dr., I'm a 43 yr old male who just quit smoking. I was heavy smoker for almost 24 yrs. I mostly don't have any health problems. Just had a full checkup, including chest xray and blood tests; everything was normal (except slight anemia and low testosterone levels). My question is: what can I do to improve my pulmonary health? I run out of breath very quickly when climbing stairs, etc. I am otherwise pretty healthy - play a lot of badminton (5-10 hours per week), occasionally lift weights, do pilates and am starting a cardio workout program. But is there more I can do specifically for pulmonary health? Not looking for medications per say, but supplements or natural treatments that will promote pulmonary health. Thanks a lot in advance for your help.

My girlfriend is very concerned that she may be pregnant. We did NOT have sex. However she was performing oral sex and thinks that some cum may have got on her leg and dripped into her vagina. She was very turned on and "wet" at the time. Also she ovulated the day before. We decided to be safe she should take the plan b pill. As you know you you should take that pill within 72 hours and she took it 45 hours after she thinks the cum may have got into her vagina. We are very concerned and are truly asking for any help you can give us. Is there a chance that she becomes pregnant even though she has taken the plan b pill? If so is there anything else we can do to stop her from becoming pregnant? One of our big concerns is her ovulating the day before. Your help would be much appreciated! Thank you very much!

Hello Doctor,

My father 70+ years of age suffers from Filaria/ Elephentiasis from last couple of years.
Every year when he is infected with this, his leg(s) gets swollen and red in colour for a week or so and
he also gets high fever with shiver for initial 2 days. It becomes normal after
a week or so. But this time his leg is swollen but remained like that even after
couple of months and it is very reddish in colour.
We were always told that there is no medicine/treatment available for the same.
Is that true that there is no medicine? Can you please suggest which doctor should
we visit to get this checked up and start any possible treament if available.


Thanking You,
Prakash.

Dear Experts, are the brain and the mind same or they are two different matters? Does brain control the mind or mind control the brain? I want to know especially from the view of modern scientific views as well as ancient Vedic literature Chandogaya Upanishad and Bhagavat Gita.
