symptoms of liver malfunction - #14254

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.

I am working as a rehab therapist and over the years my focus turned strongly towards kids rehab, because I feel children need a diff kind of care, patience and approach when they are struggling with conditions that limit their growth or daily activity. Many pt I see come with long history of delays, difficulty in movement, sometimes speech or motor problems, and it can be overwhelming for families. I try to design therapy in a way that is not only clinical but also practical for parents to follow at home. I have seen that combining structured rehabilitation techniques with flexible methods suited to each child bring good results, and that is something I keep repeating to myself when I plan any session. Every kid progress differently, sometimes slow sometimes suddenly fast, and in that moment my job is to keep adjusting the plan without losing sight of the bigger goal. In practice I work on exercises that strengthen mobility, balance and coordination, also focus on daily life activities like grasping, walking, or posture correction. Parents often ask me about timeline for cure but I learned to explain that rehab is less about rushing and more about sustaining. Still, I feel proud when many of my patients recover with visible improvement and even reach milestones that were earlier delayed. That satisfaction is hard to put in words, but it makes the long hours of therapy worth it. Communication is also a big part of my work, since families need reassurance, guidance and clarity at every stage. I treat each case as unique, there is no single way that fit all, and that flexibility in treatment is what I consider my strength. Mistaks happen, sometimes I change plans midway, sometimes I realise a certain method is not working and I quickly shift, but that trial and correction actually helps the child get what is best for them. My way of treatment may look simple from outside but it is rooted in consistent effort, empathy and experience with many children who trusted me in their journey.

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.

I am a periodontist with a background in clinical dentistry, and tbh my journey into the field kinda started back when I was a Jr Resident at Dr. R. Ahmed Dental College in Kolkata. That phase was super intense—rotational training in three major departments: Endodontics, Oral Surgery, and Periodontics. Each rotation was like six months long, and ngl that grind really shaped my clinical instincts, especially when it came to diagnostics and surgical stuff. Things weren’t always smooth but those months taught me loads. Later I went ahead and did a 3-year postgrad residency in Periodontics and Oral Implantology at SCB Government Dental College, Cuttack. That phase honestly deepened everything for me—like flap surgeries, mucogingival procedures, regenerative therapies, and full-on implant treatment planning. Was dealing with chronic perio cases pretty much on a daily basis and learning how to customise care based on specific patient profiles.. I kinda leaned more into evidence-based protocols and surgical precision—while still keeping things practical and personal with the patient. Right now what drives me is combining those skills in a way that doesn’t just “fix the gums” but really helps people regain confidence in their oral health long-term. Like, for me, it’s not just about how perfect a flap turns out—it’s also about making sure someone understands what’s going on, why we’re doing it, and how they can stay healthy way past the surgery day. That kinda patient education and maintenance is huge in my book. I try to keep things updated, reading new studies and adapting to better implant techniques—doesn't mean jumping on every shiny trend, tho. My approach is super tailored; I mean every mouth, every patient’s gum profile is diff and I respect that. My aim? Safe, sustainable, clear-headed periodontal and implant care—without unnecessary drama or guesswork.

I’ve had the privilege of working across some of Delhi’s most respected government hospitals—Safdarjung, Dr. RML, Lady Hardinge, Charak Palika, and even a brief stint at AIIMS. Each one brought its own pace, pressure, and people, and honestly, nothing can quite prepare you for that kind of real-world clinical exposure until you’re right in the thick of it. In these hospitals, I learned not just about diseases—but about patients. From managing emergency trauma cases at Safdarjung to assisting in maternal and child care at Lady Hardinge, I was thrown into scenarios where both speed and sensitivity mattered. There were nights with barely any sleep, days that blurred into the next, and moments that challenged everything I thought I knew. At RML, I was lucky to work closely with experienced consultants who helped refine my diagnostic skills and decision-making, especially in time-critical cases. AIIMS, of course, was on a whole other level in terms of learning—from rare presentations to multidisciplinary teamwork. It was intense, but it shaped me. I don’t pretend to have it all figured out—honestly, no real doctor should. What I do know comes from real-world experience, not just reading. These days, I focus on being accurate, honest, and treating people like people, not problems. I’m still learning but always trying to show up better than the day before.

Hello, I’m Dr. Sandeep Gupta, a practicing physiotherapist with national and international exposure in the field of sports rehabilitation and manual therapy. Over the years, I've been fortunate to work in dynamic, high-performance environments, including serving as a physiotherapist for the All India Football Federation’s National Sports Team and representing India as part of the medical support staff at the U-20 World Wrestling Championship 2024 in Spain. These experiences have not only sharpened my clinical skills but also given me insight into the unique needs of elite athletes. I work mainly in sports physiotherapy, manual therapy, and musculoskeletal rehab. Along the way, I’ve picked up certifications in cupping therapy, IASTM (which is basically a tool-based technique for soft tissue), myofascial dry needling, and advanced manual therapy. My approach is a mix of evidence-based methods and real, hands-on care that comes from genuinely wanting to help. Whether I’m treating a pro athlete or someone who's been living with pain for years, my goal stays the same—get them moving better, feeling stronger, and living well. I believe therapy is never one-size-fits-all. Each case is different, and I take time to understand the root cause of the issue, rather than just addressing symptoms. I work closely with patients to develop realistic, effective treatment plans that are both progressive and easy to follow. I’ve learned over time that catching things early, understanding body mechanics, and sticking to the right rehab plan can really stop problems from turning into something long-term. What drives me is helping people understand their own bodies so they feel more in control of their healing. I’m very hands-on in my work—literally—whether that means easing tight muscles, using cupping therapy, or helping someone correct their posture and movement, step by step. Honestly, working with international teams taught me that communication and trust are just as important as clinical skill. So I always try to create a space where patients feel heard, respected, and motivated to heal. If you're dealing with pain, injury, or just looking to move better and live pain-free—I'm here to help.

I am working in the field of Sexual Medicine & Male Infertility for 40+ years now, and honestly it’s still a space that’s not talked about enough. Whether it’s a man dealing with ED or a woman struggling with hormonal ups & downs, I try to look at the whole picture. Not just symptoms. Like, what’s actually causing it and what can we do that’ll actually work long-term—not just patch things up for a moment. I deal a lot with male infertility issues like low sperm count, poor motility, hormonal issues, you name it. I try to not just run tests but also explain what's happening in simple terms. ED and premature ejaculation are common but man, the mental impact is huge! I work on those cases from all angles—medical, lifestyle, even psychosexual support if needed. Anejaculation’s another one people don’t talk about much, but yeah, I've handled several of those too. On the women’s side—there’s PCOS, ovulatory issues, arousal disorders, painful intercourse. These aren't easy to talk about but once patients open up, they want real answers, not vague promises. Sometimes it’s hormonal, sometimes past trauma, and sometimes just no one ever asked them the right questions. I try to make that space for them. My approach blends detailed diagnostics with tailored plans that might include meds, hormone regulation, or even just fixing sleep, stress & diet patterns that mess up the whole system. I believe sexual health isn’t separate from general health, and treating it that way—holistically—is where things actually shift. I work with both men & women, often couples too. What really matters to me is getting people past shame and confusion and into solutions that stick. And yeah sometimes that just starts with a really honest conversation.

I'm currently working as an Assistant Professor at the Government Dental College and Hospital in Aurangabad, where I also completed my MDS in Orthodontics in 2024 with distinction (76%). Teaching gives me a chance to stay closely connected with both the academic and clinical side of dentistry, and honestly—I learn as much from my students and patients as I try to offer them. My core area of interest lies in orthodontics, especially early intervention and esthetic correction for functional bite issues. Whether it's braces, aligners, or space management, I believe a well-planned smile correction can really change how someone feels about themselves. I try to keep my treatment approach practical and conservative, wherever possible—less discomfort, more efficiency. Besides my clinical and teaching duties, I’ve written and published a few papers in both national and international dental journals. Two of them got pretty good response from peers, which honestly meant a lot to me. Research and writing kind of push me to slow down and think more deeply about the issues we face in dentistry today. It also helps me tweak the way I approach both teaching and treatment, you learn stuff as you go. I’m constantly exploring newer techniques in orthodontic care while keeping the basics strong. Patient comfort, treatment stability, and facial harmony are some of the things I pay attention to—because every case is unique, and one-size-fits-all just doesn’t work in orthodontics. Being in a teaching hospital also means I get to treat a diverse population with a wide range of malocclusions and skeletal patterns. That clinical variety, combined with academic exposure, keeps me sharp and grounded. I don’t claim to have all the answers, but I’m always listening, learning, and refining my work—because that's what good dental care should be about.

I completed my MBBS from Maulana Azad Medical College, Delhi, in 1982, and soon after, went on to earn a Diploma in Child Health (DCH) from Safdarjung Hospital in 1985. Since then—through all these years—I’ve been practicing medicine privately, offering care that's as thorough as it is personal, for both children and adults. With a foundation built at two of the most respected medical institutions in India, I was fortunate to start my journey in pediatric care early. That specialization taught me a lot—not just about managing illnesses in children, but also how to read their development patterns, address nutritional gaps, and guide parents through those unpredictable early years. Over the past three decades (and counting), my experience has grown beyond pediatrics into a wider spectrum of general medical care. I’ve managed everything from chronic conditions like hypertension and diabetes to more day-to-day concerns like fevers, digestive issues, infections—you name it. One of the most rewarding parts of my work is continuity. I’ve had the privilege of treating not just patients, but entire families—sometimes across three generations. It’s humbling. And it pushes me to stay updated with the latest in medicine, while keeping a holistic perspective. Not every ailment needs a prescription; sometimes, people just need a little more time, or someone to listen carefully. My goal is to provide honest, dependable, and compassionate care to everyone who walks through my door regardless of any age. I do my best to heal all my patients quickly as possible.

I’m a practicing general surgeon with hands-on experience across a pretty wide range of surgical cases, especially ones related to oncology and gut issues. What I’ve learned over the years is that doing a good surgery isn’t only about being precise with your hands—it’s also about seeing the person behind the scans, hearing what they’re really worried about, and keeping your head clear when things get tense. That balance matters more than people often realise. I handle a mix of elective and emergency surgeries pretty often—ranging from tricky abdominal operations to trauma cases and even those more regular, day-to-day procedures. What I focus on most is safety... making sure pre-op planning is solid, the surgery itself is clean and precise, and follow-up care is always thorough. Over time I’ve realised, honestly, every patient’s story is different, and the way you treat them should be too. Compassion matters. During my surgical training and clinical practice, I’ve developed a solid hand in diagnostics, operative procedures, and managing critical post-surgical scenarios. Whether it’s a challenging oncologic resection or a straightforward hernia repair, I treat each case with the same level of focus and responsibility. I also try to stay up to date with surgical advancements—laparoscopic techniques, better suturing methods, evolving anesthetic protocols—because medicine doesn’t stand still, and neither should we. At the end of the day, what matters most to me is that the patient feels safe, informed, and cared for—not just before the surgery, but every step through recovery. Outside the OR, I really try to keep things simple and honest when I talk with patients and their families. Surgery can be felt scary, confusing, and full of unknowns. So I make it a point to slow down, explain things in a way that actually makes sense, and just listen when they need to talk. I’ve seen how much that kind of connection helps people feel calmer and more in control, which I think really does make a difference in how they recover. No matter how many surgeries I’ve done, I never take it lightly. Every incision, every decision—it all counts. And I make sure it’s done with purpose.

With over 18 years of clinical experience, I’ve dedicated my practice to the care and management of outdoor ophthalmic patients across varied settings. I have done my Diploma in Ophthalmology from the National Board of Examinations (NBE), and since then, I’ve focused on providing accessible, empathetic, and evidence-based eye treatments. I deal with a wide spectrum of eye conditions—ranging from routine vision complaints to more complex concerns like infections, trauma-related injuries, and chronic conditions affecting ocular health. Whether it's diagnosing early signs of cataract or managing long-term visual issues, my approach always begins with listening carefully to each patient. No two eyes are the same—and neither are the people behind them. I’ve worked extensively in outpatient settings, where timely diagnosis and clear patient communication are absolutely key. I try my best to keep things simple for the patient—eye care shouldn't feel like a maze of medical terms and rushed appointments. Instead, I focus on making every consultation practical, collaborative, and comfortable. I still attend occasional clinical meets or training modules to refine my practice wherever needed. I may not always have fancy words, but I know how to take care of the eyes that walk into my clinic. That’s what matters most to me.
