I’m a periodontist and academician with a strong clinical and teaching background. Over the last 4 years and 8 months, I’ve been actively involved in dental education, guiding students at multiple levels including dental hygienist, BDS, and MDS programs. Currently, I serve as a Reader at MMCDSR in Ambala, Haryana—a role that allows me to merge my academic passion with hands-on experience. Clinically, I’ve been practicing dentistry for the past 12 years. From routine procedures like scaling and root planing to more advanced cases involving grafts, biopsies, and implant surgeries. Honestly, I still find joy in doing a simple RCT when it’s needed. It’s not just about the procedure but making sure the patient feels comfortable and safe. Academically, I have 26 research publications to my credit. I’m on the editorial boards of the Archives of Dental Research and Journal of Dental Research and Oral Health, and I’ve spent a lot of time reviewing manuscripts—from case reports to meta-analyses and even book reviews. I was honored to receive the “Best Editor” award by Innovative Publications, and Athena Publications recognized me as an “excellent reviewer,” which honestly came as a bit of a surprise! In 2025, I had the opportunity to present a guest lecture in Italy on traumatic oral lesions. Sharing my work and learning from peers globally has been incredibly fulfilling. Outside academics and clinics, I’ve also worked in the pharmaceutical sector as a Drug Safety Associate for about 3 years, focusing on pharmacovigilance. That role really sharpened my attention to detail and deepened my understanding of drug interactions and adverse effects. My goal is to keep learning, and give every patient and student my absolute best.

Hello dear
See enlargement of abdomen in this age is quite common since during this time
Muscular is developing
Bowel reflexes are weaker
System organs concerned for digestion are in initial stage
So it is not a concern
However if you observe
Pain
Vomiting
Diarrhea
Weakness
Fragility
Then you need to consult pediatrician in person for better clarity
Regards

I am currently working as a urologist and kidney transplant surgeon at Graphic Era Medical College & Hospital, Dehradun. It's a role that keeps me on my toes, honestly. I handle a pretty wide range of urology cases—stones, prostate issues, urinary tract obstructions, infections, you name it. Some are straightforward, others way more complex than you expect at first glance. Every patient walks in with a different story and that’s what keeps the work real for me. Kidney transplant surgery, though, that’s a whole different zone. You’re not just working on anatomy—you’re dealing with timelines, matching, medications, family dynamics, emotional pressure... and yeah, very precise coordination. I’m part of a team that manages the entire transplant process—from evaluation to surgery to post-op care. Not gonna lie, it’s intense. But seeing someone who’s been on dialysis for years finally get a new shot at life—there’s nothing really like that feeling. In the OR, I’m detail-focused. Outside of it, I try to stay accessible—patients don’t always need answers right away, sometimes they just need to feel heard. I believe in walking them through what’s going on rather than just giving reports and instructions. Especially in transplant cases, trust matters. And clear, honest conversation helps build that. Urology itself is such a misunderstood field sometimes. People ignore symptoms for years because it feels “awkward” or they think it’s not serious until it becomes unmanageable. I’ve had patients who came in late just because they were embarassed to talk about urine flow or testicular pain. That’s why I also try to make the space judgment-free—like whatever it is, we’ll figure it out. At the end of the day, whether I’m scrubbing in for surgery or doing OPD rounds, I just want to make sure what I do *actually* helps. That the effort’s not wasted. And yeah, some days are frustrating—some procedures don’t go clean, some recoveries take longer than they should—but I keep showing up, cause the work’s worth doing. Always is.

नमस्ते माँ जी 👶
आपके बच्चे का पेट बड़ा दिखना, लेकिन पॉटी और पेशाब सामान्य होना – कई बार सामान्य होता है, लेकिन कुछ बातों का ध्यान रखना ज़रूरी है।
✅ संभावित कारण (ज्यादातर सामान्य)
· सामान्य शारीरिक संरचना – 6 महीने से कम उम्र के शिशुओं के पेट की मांसपेशियाँ कमजोर होती हैं, खाने के बाद पेट फूला हुआ दिखता है – ये नॉर्मल है।
· गैस या अधिक दूध पिलाना – फॉर्मूला फीडिंग + दिन में 9+ बार खिलाने से गैस बन सकती है। 15-20 बार पेशाब सामान्य है, 7-8 बार पॉटी भी सामान्य (लेकिन थोड़ी अधिक हो सकती है)।
· लैक्टोज इनटॉलेरेंस या फॉर्मूला एलर्जी – कभी-कभी पेट बड़ा हो सकता है, भले ही पॉटी सामान्य हो। गुदा पर चकत्ते, बेचैनी या रोना भी हो सकता है।
⚠️ कब डॉक्टर को दिखाना ज़रूरी है?
· पेट सख्त (hard) या दर्द से रोना आए
· उल्टी हो, खासकर हरी या पित्त वाली
· वजन न बढ़ रहा हो या कम हो रहा हो
· पॉटी का रंग सफेद, काला या खूनी हो
· पेट का बड़ापन लगातार बढ़े (फोटो लेकर तुलना करें)
🩺 आपको क्या करना चाहिए?
1. बाल रोग विशेषज्ञ से जाँच कराएँ – डॉक्टर पेट टटोलेंगे, लिवर-तिल्ली का साइज चेक करेंगे।
2. फॉर्मूला बदलने से पहले सलाह लें – कभी-कभी हाइड्रोलाइज्ड फॉर्मूला (जैसे लैक्टोज-फ्री) फायदा करता है।
3. दूध पिलाने का तरीका सुधारें:
· हर फीड के बाद ढेर से डकार (burp) ज़रूर दिलाएँ
· बोतल झुकाकर पिलाएँ (हवा न जाए)
· पेट के बल थोड़ी देर लिटाएँ (जागते समय) – गैस निकलती है
4. पॉटी डायरी रखें – कलर, कंसिस्टेंसी (पतली/गाढ़ी), बलगम है या नहीं।
📌 याद रखें
· 7-8 बार पॉटी और 15-20 बार पेशाब सामान्य रेंज में है (खासकर फॉर्मूला पर)।
· बिना किसी और लक्षण के केवल पेट बड़ा होना अक्सर सामान्य होता है, लेकिन एक बार डॉक्टर से ग्रोथ चार्ट और पेट का अल्ट्रासाउंड करवा लेना सुरक्षित है।
अगर बच्चा हंसता-खेलता है, वजन बढ़ रहा है, तो ज्यादा चिंता न करें। फिर भी, एक बार जाँच करा लें।

I am a general physician with 8 years of practice, mostly in urban clinics and semi-rural setups. I began working right after MBBS in a govt hospital in Kerala, and wow — first few months were chaotic, not gonna lie. Since then, I’ve seen 1000s of patients with all kinds of cases — fevers, uncontrolled diabetes, asthma, infections, you name it. I usually work with working-class patients, and that changed how I treat — people don’t always have time or money for fancy tests, so I focus on smart clinical diagnosis and practical treatment. Over time, I’ve developed an interest in preventive care — like helping young adults with early metabolic issues. I also counsel a lot on diet, sleep, and stress — more than half the problems start there anyway. I did a certification in evidence-based practice last year, and I keep learning stuff online. I’m not perfect (nobody is), but I care. I show up, I listen, I adjust when I’m wrong. Every patient needs something slightly different. That’s what keeps this work alive for me.

A baby’s big stomach with normal bowel movements can be worrisome for any parent, but there can be a variety of explanations. Babies tend to have a naturally round and somewhat protruding belly, actually making it look larger than one might expect. As long as your baby is feeding well, active, and growing according to their growth chart, occasional mild distension of the abdomen is generally considered normal. Since your baby is also passing stool 7-8 times a day and urinating 15-20 times, it seems like the digestive system is functioning properly, which is good. However, certain conditions could cause a more serious abdominal distension that would require attention. It’s crucial to be vigilant for additional symptoms such as persistent vomiting, severe pain, fever, or if your baby seems lethargic or irritable beyond usual crying spells. If you notice those, it could be a sign of gastrointestinal issues or an infection and you’d want to have a pediatrician assess your baby urgently. Also, check if your baby’s abdomen feels especially hard or rigid to the touch, as that would necessitate medical evaluation. Feeding practices also can play a role. If the baby is swallowing a lot of air during feeds, due to crying or poor latching, it might lead to bloating. Proper burping techniques and feeding positions can help tackle this. Make sure to hold the baby upright during feeds and gently burp afterward by patting their back. If there’s any uncertainty or ongoing worry, a consultation with a pediatrician or family doctor could provide peace of mind and reassurance about your baby’s health.

I completed my medical degree in 2023, but honestly, my journey in healthcare started way before that. Since 2018, I’ve been actively involved in clinical practice—getting hands-on exposure across multiple departments like ENT, pediatrics, dermatology, ophthalmology, medicine, and emergency care. One of the most intense and defining phases of my training was working at a District Government Hospital for a full year during the COVID pandemic. It was chaotic, unpredictable, and exhausting—but it also grounded me in real-world medicine like no textbook ever could. Over time, I’ve worked in both OPD and IPD setups, handling everything from mild viral fevers to more stubborn, long-term conditions. These day-to-day experiences really built my base and taught me how to stay calm when things get hectic—and how to adjust fast when plans don’t go as expected. What I’ve learned most is that care isn't only about writing the right medicine. It’s about being fully there, listening properly, and making sure the person feels seen—not just treated. Alongside clinical work, I’ve also been exposed to preventive health, health education, and community outreach. These areas really matter to me because I believe real impact begins outside the hospital, with awareness and early intervention. My approach is always centered around clarity, empathy, and clinical logic—I like to make sure every patient knows exactly what’s going on and why we’re doing what we’re doing. I’ve always felt a pull towards general medicine and internal care, and honestly, I’m still learning every single day—each patient brings a new lesson. Medicine never really sits still, it keeps shifting, and I try to shift with it. Not just in terms of what I know, but also in how I listen and respond. For me, it’s always been about giving real care. Genuine, respectful, and the kind that actually helps a person heal—inside and out.

Aapke baby ka pet bada dikhna is age (6 months se chhota) mein aksar normal bhi ho sakta hai, especially jab baby ka khana, potty (7–8 baar), aur urine (15–20 baar) sab theek ho aur appetite normal ho—yeh digestion aur feeding ka sign hai. Is age mein bachchon ka abdomen naturally thoda rounded/bloated sa lagta hai kyunki unke abdominal muscles abhi weak hote hain aur formula feeding se kabhi-kabhi gas bhi ban sakti hai. Agar baby ko sirf occasional discomfort hai aur koi symptoms jaise continuous vomiting, fever, hard/tight stomach, excessive crying, ya weight gain issue nahi hai, toh zyada concern ki baat nahi lagti. Phir bhi, agar pet bahut zyada tight ho, size continuously badh raha ho, ya baby irritate rehta ho, toh ek baar pediatrician ko dikha lena better rahega to rule out gas, lactose intolerance, ya rare conditions. Overall, abhi ke description ke hisaab se yeh zyada tar normal variation ya mild gas-related bloating lag raha hai.

I am a 2023 batch passout and working as a general physician right now, based in Hanumangarh, Rajasthan. Still kinda new in the bigger picture maybe, but honestly—every single day in this line teaches you more than textbooks ever could. I’ve had the chance to work under some pretty respected doctors during and after my graduation, not just for the clinical part but also to see how they handle people, real people, in pain, in panic, and sometimes just confused about their own health. General medicine covers a lot, right? Like from the smallest complaints to those random, vague symptoms that no one really understands at first—those are kinda my zone now. I don’t really rush to label things, I try to spend time actually listening. Feels weird to say it but ya, I do take that part seriously. Some patients just need someone to hear the whole story instead of jumping to prescription pads after 30 seconds. Right now, my practice includes everything from managing common infections, blood pressure issues, sugar problems to more layered cases where symptoms overlap and you gotta just... piece things together. It's not glamorous all the time, but it's real. I’ve handled a bunch of seasonal disease waves too, like dengue surges and viral fevers that hit rural belts hard—Hanumangarh doesn’t get much spotlight but there’s plenty happening out here. Also, I do rely on basics—thorough history, solid clinical exam and yeah when needed, investigations. But not over-prescribing things just cz they’re there. One thing I picked up from the senior consultants I worked with—they used to say “don’t chase labs, chase the patient’s story”... stuck with me till now. Anyway, still learning every single day tbh. But I like that. Keeps me grounded and kind of obsessed with trying to get better.

Hello
Thanks for sharing these details. A slightly bigger stomach in a 1.5-month-old baby is often normal, especially if they’re feeding well, having regular bowel movements, and not showing consistent discomfort. Babies’ tummies can look round and soft because their abdominal muscles are still developing.
Since your baby has:
- Good toilet and potty habits
- No consistent pain or discomfort
- Increased appetite
This usually suggests things are okay. Occasional mild discomfort is common in infants due to gas or digestion.
When to worry: If you notice any of these, please see a pediatrician urgently:
- Severe or constant pain
- Vomiting (especially green or forceful)
- Blood in stool
- Not feeding well or lethargy
- Swelling that feels hard, tense, or doesn’t go away
If you’d like, you can send a photo for me to review, or share more details about the discomfort. Otherwise, just keep monitoring and continue regular feeding.
Thank you

I am a general dentist with 3+ years of working in real-world setups, and lemme say—every single patient teaches me something diff. It’s not just teeth honestly, it’s people… and how they feel walking into the chair. I try really hard to not make it just a “procedure thing.” I explain stuff in plain words—no confusing dental jargon, just straight talk—coz I feel like when ppl *get* what's going on, they feel safer n that makes all the difference. Worked with all ages—like, little kids who need that gentle nudge about brushing, to older folks who come in with long histories and sometimes just need someone to really sit n listen. It’s weirdly rewarding to see someone walk out lighter, not just 'coz their toothache's gone but coz they felt seen during the whole thing. A lot of ppl come in scared or just unsure, and I honestly take that seriously. I keep the vibe calm. Try to read their mood, don’t rush. I always tell myself—every smile’s got a story, even the broken ones. My thing is: comfort first, then precision. I want the outcome to last, not just look good for a week. Not tryna claim perfection or magic solutions—just consistent, clear, hands-on care where patients feel heard. I think dentistry should *fit* the person, not push them into a box. That's kinda been my philosophy from day one. And yeah, maybe sometimes I overexplain or spend a bit too long checking alignment again but hey, if it means someone eats pain-free or finally smiles wide in pics again? Worth it. Every time.

Hello
Chhote babies mein pet ka thoda bada dikhna aksar normal hota hai, khas kar 6 mahine se kam umar mein. Unke pet ki muscles abhi weak hoti hain aur feeding ke dauran hawa (gas) bhi andar chali jati hai, isliye stomach thoda phoola hua lag sakta hai, jabki khana, potty aur susu sab normal chal raha ho.
Agar baby din mein 7–8 bar potty kar raha hai aur 15–20 bar susu kar raha hai, aur feeding theek se ho rahi hai, weight badh raha hai aur baby zyada pareshaan nahi lag raha, to zyadatar cases mein ye normal variation hota hai. Formula feeding mein kabhi-kabhi gas ya thoda bloating bhi ho jata hai jis se pet bada dikh sakta hai.
Lekin agar pet bahut zyada tight ya sakht ho jaye, size jaldi-jaldi badhne lage, baby ko bar-bar ulti ho, bukhar aaye, weight na badhe, ya baby bahut zyada rota ya sust ho jaye, to doctor ko jaldi dikhana zaroori hota hai.
Take care
Feel free to reach out again
