Doctor's Opinion: Are Women More Prone To Kidney Infections If UTIs Go Untreated?
According to Dr Shrinivas R P, Consultant – Urology, Manipal Hospitals, women are more prone to kidney infections if urinary tract infections (UTIs) are left untreated. If the UTI spreads to the kidneys, it is categorised as a kidney infection. The urethra in women is shorter than in men, which makes it easier for the bacteria to enter the body and then travel to the bladder. A bladder infection has the potential to move to the kidneys. A pregnant woman is at a higher risk of developing a kidney infection. Fever, chills, back discomfort, and frequent urine can indicate a kidney infection. It is essential to get medical attention very away to avoid problems.

Dr. Sanjeev Rohatgi on World Liver Day: Fatty liver disease: An alarming concern | Bangalore Mirror
World Liver Day: Fatty Liver Disease: An Alarming Concern:
Fatty liver disease is one of the leading causes of liver failure in adults, and early diagnosis is advisable since the condition is reversible with treatment. Obesity, diabetes, excess alcohol intake, and overeating are the main factors that cause the accumulation of extra fat in the liver leading to fatty liver disease. Childhood obesity is a common cause of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in children. If left untreated, it can progress to fibrosis and cirrhosis of the liver. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is also expected to rise exponentially. Maintaining a balanced and nutritious diet, maintaining a healthy weight, avoiding self-medicating and unnecessary medications, living a healthy lifestyle by avoiding alcohol and smoking and getting timely vaccinations are some steps to maintain liver health. The patient should seek medical help early if concerns such as jaundice, unexplained tiredness, lethargy, nausea or abdominal pain occur.

Dr. Rockey Katheria on Is it Heartburn or a Heart Attack? | Happiest Health
Is it heartburn or a heart attack?
Heartburn and heart attack are different health problems, often confused due to similar symptoms, particularly chest pain. Heartburn is caused by excessive acid secretion in the stomach, which creates a burning sensation in the upper area of the stomach. A heart attack is a life-threatening emergency caused by a decrease in blood flow. According to Dr Rockey Katheria, Consultant, Interventional Cardiology, Manipal Hospitals, the signs and symptoms of a heart attack can differ significantly from one person to another, including chest pain, back or jaw pain, nausea or vomiting and shortness of breath. Stress, high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol levels, smoking and being overweight are serious risk factors for heart attacks. Spicy foods, a high-fat diet, insufficient water intake, meal irregularity, stress, smoking, and alcohol consumption can cause heartburn. The doctor explains the symptoms of heartburn and a heart attack are similar; patients should evaluate themselves immediately in the case of persistent chest pain. If someone experiences persistent chest pain, they should immediately seek emergency medical help.

Dr. Pradeep Haranahalli on What is a widowmaker heart attack, and why is it more dangerous than others? | The Indian Express
Heart attacks are becoming more prevalent and can be lethal due to lifestyle and genetic factors. The most dangerous is a STEMI or a widowmaker heart attack. The term widowmaker means "something lethally harmful." This term increases awareness among patients to seek medical care, said Dr Pradeep Haranahalli, Consultant - Interventional Cardiologist at Manipal Hospital, Bangalore. Widowmaker heart attacks are life-threatening due to the blockage in the LAD's left anterior descending artery, which supplies more than 50% of blood to the heart. It can be caused by factors such as age, gender, and lifestyle. The risk can be reduced by having a healthy diet, avoiding saturated fat, managing diabetes, exercising, avoiding smoking and maintaining an optimum weight.
