Urologic Emergencies Management and Treatment Strategies

Overview

Urologic emergencies refer to conditions that require immediate medical attention due to their potential for serious complications. These emergencies can range from life-threatening conditions such as urosepsis to painful conditions such as kidney stones.

In this blog post, we will discuss the management and treatment strategies for some common urologic emergencies.

Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)

UTIs are a very common urologic emergency, especially in women. Symptoms include burning pain during urination, increased frequency and urgency to urinate and fever. UTIs can cause major problems, like kidney infections if they are not addressed.

Management: The first step in managing a UTI is to obtain a urine culture to identify the bacteria causing the infection. Antibiotics are then prescribed based on the culture results. For intravenous antibiotics, hospitalization may be required in extreme cases.

Kidney Stones

Kidney stones are solid masses made of crystals that form in the kidneys. Severe side or back discomfort, nausea, vomiting, and blood in the urine are all symptoms. Kidney damage and urinary tract obstruction can both result from kidney stones in extreme circumstances.

Management: Treatment for kidney stones depends on the size and location of the stone. Pain management with analgesics is important to help patients cope with severe pain. Small stones can be treated with medication and hydration to help pass the stone. Large stones may require surgery or shock wave lithotripsy to break up the stone.

Testicular Torsion

Testicular torsion occurs when the spermatic cord twists, cutting off blood flow to the testicle. The scrotum will be extremely painful, swollen, and red. Testicular torsion is a medical emergency and requires immediate attention as the testicle can die within hours of torsion.

Management: Surgery is the primary treatment for testicular torsion. The goal of surgery is to untwist the cord and restore blood flow to the testicle. It might be necessary to remove the testicle if it is significantly injured.

Urosepsis

Urosepsis is a severe infection that occurs when a urinary tract infection spreads to the bloodstream. Symptoms include fever, chills, confusion and rapid breathing. Urosepsis is a life-threatening condition that requires immediate medical attention.

Management: Treatment for urosepsis includes hospitalization, intravenous antibiotics and supportive care. In severe cases, patients may require admission to the intensive care unit (ICU).

Acute Urinary Retention

When a person is unable to empty their bladder, acute urine retention develops, causing excruciating agony and discomfort. Causes include prostate enlargement, bladder stones, and neurological conditions.

Management: Using a urinary catheter to empty the bladder is part of the treatment for acute urine retention. In some circumstances, surgery can be required to address the retention's underlying cause.

Conclusion

 urologic emergencies require prompt medical attention to prevent serious complications. Early identification and treatment are key to successful management. If you are experiencing symptoms of a urologic emergency, seek medical attention immediately. If you are seeking such as urological condition please visit for better constancy

My experience with kidney stones 

I want to tell you about my experience having a kidney stone, so that if it happens to you one day, you will know exactly what it is and if you need to go to the hospital or not. I experienced having one, about 2 years ago. I do not wish this pain on my worst enemy. The pain is absolutely excruciating. It is very painful, in fact it was so painful that now, i am paranoid every single time that i…

Navigating the Complexities of Kidney Disease to Understand Renal Health

In holistic medicine homeopathy is recognised due to its gentle and effective approach for treating various illnesses, including ones that affect kidney health. There are a myriad of conditions that affect the kidneys; problems like elevated levels of creatinine as well as renal cysts, kidney failure, kidney infections, kidney cysts, and acute kidney injuries present significant issues. But, homeopathy offers an opportunity to address these problems naturally, without the adverse side effects typically encountered with traditional treatments.

Understanding Kidney Health:

The kidneys are vital for eliminating waste from circulation and maintaining electrolyte balance. However, if the kidneys are damaged due to causes like poor lifestyle choices, genetic predisposition, or other medical conditions, it could cause a variety of kidney-related issues.

High Creatinine Levels and Kidney Failure:

High levels of creatinine are often used as a sign of deterioration in kidney function. In cases of kidney failure where the kidneys cease the ability to remove bloodborne waste properly, Homeopathic treatments aim to treat the root cause while promoting the overall health of the kidneys. Homeopathic medicine for high creatinine levels is often recommended by homeopaths to control high levels of creatinine and ease symptoms of kidney failure.

Renal Cysts and Kidney Infections:

Renal cysts, or sacs of fluid inside the kidneys, may cause discomfort and complications if not treated. homeopathic medicine for renal cyst  is usually recommended to shrink their size and reduce the associated symptoms, such as discomfort and urinary problems. Natural therapies can help fight disease and promote kidney healing and functioning if a kidney infection is present.

Homeopathic Approach to Kidney Treatment:

kidney treatment by homeopathy focuses on the individual's symptoms and characteristics. Homeopaths consider the physical, mental, and emotional condition and tailor treatment accordingly. This approach ensures that the root causes of kidney problems are dealt with thoroughly, which improves overall health and well-being.

Kidney Cyst Treatment:

Homeopathic medicine is a non-invasive and gentle method of treating kidney cysts. Treatments are typically based on the individual's symptoms and characteristics. homeopathic medicine for renal cyst helps by reducing inflammation, encouraging the absorption of cystic fluid, and aiding in eliminating kidney cysts.

Holistic Management of Acute Kidney Injury:

Acute renal damage (AKI) requires prompt treatment to avoid further complications and restore kidney function. Homeopathic treatment for AKI requires a multi-faceted approach focused on addressing the root cause, addressing symptoms, and aiding in kidney regeneration.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, homeopathic treatment for kidney failure provides an integrated and personalised method of treating a wide range of kidney-related issues. Homoeopathy treats high creatinine levels and renal failure, renal cysts and kidney diseases, kidney cysts, and acute kidney injuries. It is a safe and effective treatment that works in conjunction with the body's healing processes.

homeopathy kidney treatment can be beneficial in enhancing the health of those suffering from kidney issues by addressing the causes of imbalances and improving the overall health of kidneys. It is essential to consult an experienced homeopath to provide personalised assistance and treatment recommendations that are suited to your requirements is crucial. If done correctly, homeopathy can be an effective ally to improving the health of your kidneys and ensuring that they are in good shape.

Notes from a concerned medical professional who reads too much hurt/comfort:

(These are all things I've seen in Hazbin/Helluva fanfics)

(Tw: for injury, illness, gore, drug use, overdose, a lot of other things)

You cannot drug someone to sleep by overdosing them on melatonin. It will not work

Don't submerge an open wound or stitches in a bathtub/pool/etc it will introduce bacteria to the wound (taking a shower is usually fine, just skip the romantic bath)

On that note, stitches do not immediately stop a wound from bleeding and should not be used to solve every problem (never give yourself stitches unless you have absolutely no other choice they can trap infection inside the body when done incorrectly)

And, if the wound is extremely deep, a person may need several layers of stitches to piece together the skin, muscle, and viscera

You absolutely cannot get high on tylenol or ibuprofen even if you mix it with alcohol.

If you do mix tylenol or ibuprofen with alcohol it can cause internal bleeding/kidney damage/liver failure, so please don't do that

If someone is shivering from a high fever, don't cover them in blankets it will raise their body temperature even more (please try correctly dosed tylenol or ibuprofen for this)

Don't submerge someone with a high fever in ice water, they might go into shock (they also might panic and hurt themselves) in a pinch lukewarm water will do

Don't put ice on burns, run them under lukewarm or cool water instead

If someone overdoses on an opoid (heroin, morphine, various pain medications), there is a medicine called nalaxone (Narcan) that can reverse the effects of opioids (edit: thank you to @queerlybehooved)

If someone is bleeding profusely, don't just hold their head and whisper sweet nothings, put pressure on the wound!!!

If a bullet remains in a person’s body after being shot it most likely should not be dug out unless it's blocking something vital, the bullet is not the problem the damage it made in it's path is

This isn't a criticism of authors who have written things like this. A lot of it isn't common knowledge, and DIY healthcare is absolutely steeped in myth and misinformation. I just worry about disinformation being perpetuated (and I really enjoy accurate hurt/comfort)

If I got anything wrong, please let me know, and I'll edit the post. I'm far from perfect and appreciate good advice

Let me know if you guys want a fic rec list of my favorite Hazbin Hotel whump fics

Hello every one ♥️

My name is Shatha, a mother of three children from Gaza 🍉🇵🇸, living through extremely harsh conditions. We have been displaced over 15 times, searching for safety, but to no avail. I have two daughters, Toleen (6 years) and Layan (2 years), and my young son Walid (3 years), who was born with a disability and is unable to walk. Walid used to receive regular physical therapy before the war, but now his condition has worsened due to the current crisis.

Today, we are enduring severe humanitarian conditions, lacking access to food, clean water, and medicine💔. My children need basic essentials like milk, diapers, and clean clothes💔.

My husband also lost his job and source of income in the war, and his workplace was destroyed. He worked in the academic field at the university. 💔💔

Walid suffered severe burns to his head during the war😓, and also many kidney diseases, and my little girl Layan was infected with hepatitis😓💔 due to malnutrition and polluted water.💔

I have launched a support campaign for my children to provide for these basic needs, especially for Walid, who urgently needs to continue his treatment and receive the necessary medical supplies. So far, donations have been few, and I am hoping you can help us by donating and sharing the campaign. Any help, no matter how small, will make a big difference in my children’s lives. 🥺🙏🙏🙏

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.❤️❤️

Going back to the idea of 141 protecting accused reader

Check CW in tags

Price collects the names of everyone involved. Who accused you, who took you in, questioned you and anyone who laid their hands on you. Although Kate had nothing to do with it, the Americans, those fucking shadows overstepped. The best Kate can hope for is to avoid a charge with aiding in a war crime. Joining Kyle in interviews to find out the specifics. Who was cruelest? Did anyone touch you sexually? Were you starved? Questions they knew would overwhelm you if prompted.

Once Price’s job is done, Kyle starts to collect all the intel with a simple name. Digging into the lives of everyone responsible for breaking you as well as their loved one. It doesn’t take Kyle long to start planting things to make their lives go nuclear. Evidences of affairs that were AI generated sent to the wives waiting back home with their husbands attached with apology letters from the mistress. Insisting that she didn’t know he was married and to please use this as evidence if she chooses to divorce him.

Simon is the judge, the jury and executioner. Most of the shadows steered clear after everything came to the surface that you were truly innocent. That doesn’t stop him from beating them bloody during sparring. Challenging any one of them. Embarrassing them in front of their peers only to catch them off guard later in the night. Carving their skin, taking their fingernails as trophies. Having to refrain from showing you that he was giving you justice in the only way he knew how.

And then there was Johnny….

Sweet Johnny became your primary care taker. Isn’t phased when you need help bathing or going to the bathroom. Johnny who administered your pain medicine around the clock. Who was your advocate about dealing with the doctors and medical staff when you felt too overwhelmed. Who scheduled your medical appointments for your burns, lacerations and the other injuries and illnesses you sustained. Severed ACL. Upper respiratory infection. Kidney infection. UTIs from lack of hygiene items. Never once making you feel embarrassed. Getting you in touch with a therapist.

All of them doing their part to help you in anyway they can. All of them promising to never let you away from them again.

Could you please write an imagine based on the episode where Greg House gives a lecture about the three cases and he's one of them (where we first see Stacy).

Reader is one of the students there, gives the correct answers, therefore grabs his attention and he offers a job and they end up dating

Thanks in advance!

chasing you ✩ gregory house

“What color is your pee?”

You watched House interrogate one of the few students that had been giving input on his three stories.

“Yellow,” she replied with a sharp tone.

“And what color is your blood?”

“Red.”

House nodded. “Yes. And what colors did I use to make this tea color?”

The female student stammers as she replies with “red, yellow, and brown.”

The man clicks his tongue. “And brown. How do we get the brown color?”

“Waste-“

“Thank means the kidneys are shutting down,” House cut in. “Why?”

“Could be damage done by the self injection. He has no history of trauma.

“Treatment?”

House’s rapidfire questions had rattled the woman, but she stiller answered. “Heat and rest-“

“Other possible causes?”

“Infection.”

House nodded. “Start him on antibiotics. What else?”

Silence filled the room. House looked around, expecting an answer. “Come on! What is it?”

“I-I don’t know,” the student admits. She looks away.

House sighs and walks down the steps. The paper with the tea color crumpled in his hand.

“You know, it’s hard to think with you in our faces,” starts the annoying student right up front.

“Yeah?” House scoffs. “You think it’s gonna be any easier with a real patient really dying?”

The guy looked down. Once again, silence reigned over the room as House prepared himself to speak. Until… you opened your mouth.

“The unknown factor would be muscle death.”

House looks up. Near the back of the auditorium by the window on the far left. A student House originally thought was uninterested. Sure, House had seen you around the hospital- practically every wide-eyed intern or student had met the witty man but he had never spoken to you.

Which was odd considering he took a little joy in making the interns and students squirm- especially the pretty ones. House was surprised he’d never even caught your name.

When House’s mouth opened and closed twice, you resumed carefully. “The dying muscle leaks myoglobin which is toxic to the kidneys. There’s your brown, Doctor.”

“Brilliant,” House murmured. He eyed you carefully as he went on. “MRI the leg. See what’s killing it.”

The Heath Ledger dupe spoke up again. “Why is the girl getting the MRI?”

“Because the neck skan revealed nothing and her doctor’s way more obsessive than she thinks she is.”

Heath tilted his head. “But you said the guy needed the MRI.”

“Because the mysteriously smart girl over there said muscle death. Not one of you came up with that. Not one of this guy’s doctors came up with it either,” he replied harshly. “They gave him bed rest and antibiotics- just like you guys would’ve.”

“Does he get better?” The female student from before asked.

House clicks his tongue. “No.”

“How long-“

“Three days.” He looks around the room, stalling when he made eye contact with you. “It is in the nature of medicine that you’re going to screw up. You are going to kill someone. If you can’t handle that reality, pick a new profession. Or finish medical school and teach.”

The female student from before spoke up. “It took three days for them to figure out about the muscle death?”

House shook his head. After heaving a sigh he answers “No, it took three days for the patient to suggest muscle death.”

“What caused the muscle pain?” You asked. “Was it- was it a clot?”

House nodded. “Don’t steal my thunder, young padawan. But… yes. A clotted aneurysm lead to an infarction in the patient’s leg.”

You nodded as House examined you intently as he went on. “After the surgery to remove the clot, the patient went in to wide complex tachycardia… The patient was technically dead for over a minute.”

“Do you think he was dead? Do you think those experiences were real?”

Every head in the room turned to the back. There stood James Wilson, leaning on the door. He looked knowingly at House, like he knew something everyone didn’t.

“Define real,” House shot back. “They were re experiences… What they meant- personally, I choose to believe that the white light people sometimes see, visions this patient saw… They’re all just chemical reactions that happen when the brain shuts down.”

“You ‘choose’ to believe that?” You ask curiously.

House’s eyes dart back over to you. “There’s no conclusive science. My choice has no practical relevance to my life,” he replies. As he starts to pace slowly around the front of the room, he proceeds. “I choose the outcome I find more comforting.”

“You find it comforting to believe that this is it?” Wilson asks accusingly.

House blinks. “I find it more comforting to believe that this isn’t simply a test.”

Everyone sat, listening closely to House’s every word. No other sounds could be heard despite House’s cane movement. He explained how, once the patient was put into a medically induced coma, his trusted proxy had made the decision to remove the dead muscle from his leg.

“Because of the extent of the muscle removed, the utility of the patient’s leg was severely compromised,” he told everyone slowly. “Because of the time delay in making the diagnosis, the patient continues to suffer chronic pain.” He tilted his head up to look at the crowd in front of him and then dropped his head to look at his hands.

“She had no right to do that,” piped up a different female student.

Heath Ledger look-alike scoffed. “She had the proxy.”

The woman argued back, “She knew he didn’t want the surgery!”

“Well, she saved his life,” Heath Ledger responded.

“We don’t know that,” the guy in the front row cut in. “Maybe he would’ve been fine.”

“Still, it’s the patient’s call!”

Heath Ledger shrugged. “Patient’s an idiot.”

“They usually are,” House agreed. “Do you have a buzzer? What time does this class end?”

This time, a mew voice answered House’s question. “20 minutes ago.”

For a moment, House looked at Cuddy with an unreadable expression. Then he clicked his tongue and stood up. “I’m not doing this again,” he informed Cuddy. “And this guy is not the world’s greatest dad- not even ranked. Who the hell let’s their kids play with lead based paint? That’s why he’s always sick. Find him some plastic cups and the class is all his again,” he told Cuddy, placing the yellow hand-painted mug in her hands. He started to walk out, but paused and hobbled back to point his cane directly at you. “Except you. Come with me.”

With haste, you gathered you books and writing utensils and shoved them into your bag. As you followed the limping man out of the classroom, you felt everyone’s eyes on you.

“I have a job for you if you want it,” House tell you finally, stopping in front of a door. “It’s tough, people lie to you every day, and we don’t even have decent coffee.”

You look from him to the door that reads ‘Gregory House M.D. - Head of Diagnostic Medicine’. “I have literally spoken to you three times. How do you know I won’t accept the job, wait until you trust me, and then steal all your money and leave?”

House paused. “Good question. Will you accept the job, wait until I trust you, and then steal all my money and leave?”

“Probably not,” you reply.

“Great!” House exclaims. “You’re hired.”

Over the course of the next few month, you had clicked immediately with Chase. You spoke passionately about different types of literature with Cameron, and joked with Foreman about anything and everything.

Your relationship with House was complicated to say the least. During your first official case, House insisted he followed you everywhere. You more than understood his hesitance to let you do tests completely on your own. But when he limped around, tracking you like a damn dog… you wondered why he still hadn’t trusted you enough.

To your fortune, Wilson had cornered you in the cafeteria as you were getting lunch. “We need to talk,” he had said before plopping down next to you.

You paused, looking up from your cafeteria spaghetti. “About what?”

“House.”

Your eyebrows furrowed. “Why?”

Wilson looked at you with an expectant expression. “Because I want to know what you said. Duh.”

“I think I’m missing something,” you told him. “What was I supposed to say to him? What was he supposed to say to me?”

Wilson dropped his silverware. “Are you serious? He didn’t- You don’t- What?”

“I’m lost here, Wilson,” you tell him.

Wilson looks around suspiciously before licking his lips. “So… you know how the medical gala is coming up?”

Nodding, you shove a forkful of noodles in your mouth. “Chase won’t shut up about seeing ‘all the hot babes in tight dresses’ or something,” you inform Wilson.

After guffawing over your imitation of Chase’s accent, he gets serious. “It’s in a week. Are you sure he hasn’t talked to you?”

You throw your hands up and sigh. “Just spit it out already, Wilson. I feel like a high schooler trying to get my friends tell me who they have a cute little crush on. Tell me or I’m gonna pop a blood vessel!”

Wilson looks away. “I can’t. I’m scared of House.”

With that, he picks up his tray and goes to leave.

“Bye bye, Willie!” You call.

James turns and glares at you before walking out of the room. You chuckle and attempt to finish your meal before your beeper will inevitably go off.

You just start chowing down on the garlic bread (read: bread with butter and garlic) when you hear the dreaded beeping. You bite off a large chunk of the bread and dump your tray before reading the ‘MY OFFICE- EMERGENCY’ that was from House.

When you finally pushed open the door, you saw House facing the window outside.

“Is our patient with the living?” You ask, taking a step towards House.

House doesn’t turn around. “I need you to go to the winter gala thing with me.”

You stiffen up. Throughout your whole body, your muscles tighten as your freeze midstep. Your face drains of blood and your heart feels like it just dropped into your stomach and was dissolved by the acid. Bile had just started rising up your esophagus when House turns.

“Don’t look so excited,” he insists sarcastically. “But seriously. Why are you looking at me like I have a tumor growing out of my eyeball?”

“No,” you mutter raspily. “Take Cameron.”

House’s eyebrows furrow as you turn on your heel and start to leave.

“Why won’t you go with me?”

You gnaw deeply at your lip as you turn. To your surprise, House was standing- watching you leave without his cane in his hand. “Go with Cameron,” you say again. “I don’t- I’m- No. Just no.”

“Y/n, why-“

You practically run out the door before Greg can even say your name. He stands by his desk, staring intently at the ground where you just stood. “Hm,” he hums. He sighs and thinks about what to say to you next.

The next three days consist of House trying and failing to speak to you. To his own surprise, you have completely stopped talking about personal matters with him and have withdrawn any of your own opinions except for facts having to do with the patient.

House had just finished off another bottle of pills when Foreman barged into the room. “What did you say?”

House blinks. “Uhh… to who? Where? When?”

“To y/n, House. What did you say to y/n?”

“I told her that I needed her to go to the winter gala with me,” House answered truthfully. “Why? Has she said anything to you?”

Foreman flops down in the chair facing House. “Do you like her?”

“Well, I hired her, didn’t I?”

“That’s not what I mean and you know it, House,” Foreman snaps. “Answer me. Do you like her?”

A moment of silence fills the air. House thinks back to the first time he interacted with you- how confidently you completely the puzzle that certified doctor’s couldn’t figure out. How you had matched House’s wit on your very first day. How you- despite being babysat- had completed every test and blood swab and every challenge House had put in your way. How your face often spoke before you did, how House unconsciously searched for you in a crowd, how House looked for your input after almost anything is said, how House wants your company.

“No,” he answers. “Yes. Maybe. Why?”

Foreman looks at House like he’s stupid. “Because she likes you! How have you not figured that out?!”

“Uh, maybe because of the fact that she seemed to want to projectile vomit all over me and then sprinted out of the room? Sorry, I was too focused on the horror in her eyes to consider the fact that y/n really wants that enemies to lovers trope in real life,” House rambled.

“She thinks you’re gonna make a fool out of her, House, and I think you are too,” Foreman answers. He stares at House, searching for information he won’t get. “But… you’re less abrasive when she’s around.”

“You’re acting like she’s your precious little baby sister about to be wed to an evil ogre in the woods,” Greg mutters.

Nodding, Foreman quirked his eyebrows. “I feel like I am.”

House looks at Foreman for a long moment. “Why did you come here to tell me this?”

Eric heaves out a sigh heavy enough to know down an elephant. “Because she wants you to mean it. Y/n wants you to want her. To show her that you want her.”

“I see.”

Foreman nodded. “Don’t tell her I conversed with the enemy.”

Greg scoffed. “As if she’d voluntarily talk to me.”

Eric’s face turned sympathetic. “Just talk to her. Show her this isn’t some whim to- I don’t know, win a bet against Cuddy. Show her you feel the same.”

It was the day of the gala when House found you testing a patient’s blood. You whispered lyrics to a song Greg didn’t know as he stealthily approached you.

“Y/n.”

Your breath caught in your throat in a weird choking noise as you leapt back. “Christ, House!”

“Sorry,” House said with a very unapologetic tone. “I want to talk to you.”

“About what?” You ask plainly, looking through the low power lens of the microscope.

House leans on the table as you adjust the stage. “About… the dance. Tonight.”

You adjust the fine adjustment knob slowly, clicking your tongue unconciously. “What do you have to tell me?”

Greg looks around the lab awkwardly. He silently tried to encourage himself, mentally recalling the nights before, thinking about what to say to you. “I want to formally ask you to go to the gala with me.”

You stand at full height, facing him directly. House held his breath. He was so close to you, he thought he felt your breath on his face. “I don’t want to go. With you, Cameron, Chase, or Foreman. I don’t want to go.”

“Why?” House asked immediately.

You shake your head. “I’m-These things never go well for me House. Besides, you could just go with Cameron. I know she’s dying to go with you.”

House watches you watch him. “I don’t want to go to Cameron. I want to go with you,” he admits lowly.

“And why do you want to go with me?”

House pauses to see your eyes flicker from his eyes to his lips- so fast that he almost didn’t notice. “Because I don’t like her the way I like you.’’

You swallow. “How do you like me, House?”

“Like this,” he tells you before dropping his cane and grabbing your waist. Hearing no complaints from you, Greg pulls you close to him and brings his face close to yours. At this point, House swears his vision is blurred by how fast his heart his pumping. House’s hold on your waist is possessive, protective. He hesitates, hoping you won’t reject him now.

You- thankfully- understand the words House is trying to tell you through his eyes. You carefully let your hand cup the nape of House’s neck and pull his lips down to yours. A breathless moan escapes your lips as Greg pulls you flush against him.

House’s head- for once- is silent. And his leg doesn’t seem to hurt quite so bad with your hands on his body: feeling him like he’s only dreamt about before.

And then- when you do pull back- House keeps his grip on your waist as he looks you in the eyes. “I want to go to the gala with you. If you don’t have a dress, then we can just go home.”

Your flushed lips pull into a dazed smile. “How much cleavage do you want to see?”

House groans and lets his head fall back as his eyes close. “As long as I can take it off tonight and any other day I don’t care.”

“Is that- Are you- Are you hinting at commitment? Who are you and what have you done with Gregory House?”

House guffaws sarcastically. “Careful, there. I could get you fired.”

You just laugh. “Yeah, and have the others bicker like siblings and let patients almost die thrice before diagnosing them? I don’t think so.”

“You know, you have a pretty big ego for someone who hasn’t worked here for a full year, yet,” House chides.

Scoffing, you attempt to return to the blood you were looking at before House interrupted you. “First of all, you would know about egos. Second of all, I’m good. Cuddy has spoken to me… about other positions,” you tell him vaguely.

House is taken so off guard, his arms go limp. “What?”

“Nothing I accepted,” you answer, turning back to the microscope.

House just hums. “Good.”

You murmur a quiet ‘good’ in reply. “I know how to cure this guy,” you breathe quietly. With a growing smile, you take the slide off the stage and turn off the microscope before discarding the bio-waste.

House struggled to keep up with how fast you were walking, but your kiss had definitely left him chasing you- literally and figuratively.

Am I the asshole for lying to my friend I needed a kidney transplant because they didn't read my message carefully?

The title is insane, but there's context here.

I (18F) have a friend (17X, let's call them Cloud) whose reading comprehension is piss poor, to be honest. I wouldn't mind this, but they consistently ask questions about my messages that are answered in the message (for example, I've said "I have Calculus from 2-3 today" and they've responded with "What time do you get out of class?"). This pisses me off, so in an attempt to curb this behavior, when I have something important to say, I've started bolding and italicizing important information in my messages so it's easier for them to see.

I've been having a few pains I won't go into detail about here, and went to urgent care because my mom said it was probably a UTI. It turns out I had a pretty mild kidney infection, and I just needed some antibiotics and would be fine. I missed a few texts from Cloud when I went to urgent care, so I sent this message (the asterisks are to bold and italicize the text):

"Sorry just got back from urgent care i guess i have a kidney infection? ***I'm okay*** though ***i just need to take antibiotics for a week***"

And they replied with "ARE YOUR KIDNEYS OKAY???? DID THEY GIVE YOU MEDICINE OR SOMETHING?"

As you can see in the message above, I already answered both of those questions. I was in pain and bit irked, so I told them "No, they said I'm going to need a transplant," fully expecting they'd realize how ridiculous that was. They did not, and freaked out about it, and I felt pretty bad, so I told them I didn't actually need a transplant and was just messing with them. They got really mad and said it was mean to lie to them about something so important, and haven't talked to me in a few days. I thought that I wasn't really lying, seeing as I told them the truth and they ignored it, but perhaps I should've acted differently.

So, Tumblr, am I the asshole for telling my friend I needed a kidney transplant, when I actually just had a mild kidney infection?

What are these acronyms?

I reblogged the "would you have been naturally selected out of the population without the advancements of modern medicine" poll and tagged it "bad news for many of you who voted no" and I got an ask where someone asked me why I tagged it that.

the answer is bc many of the advancements of modern medicine are invisible to us and we have no way of knowing in what ways we would be suffering without them!

so like, you could go "well sure I had a kidney infection once that would have killed me without antibiotics" or "I was a c section baby" or "I was a really early preemie" or whatever other thing that concretely is like "without specific treatments this would have resulted in death"

but I feel like we don't think a lot about just how high mortality from infectious disease used to be

like and there's no way to vote in a way that acknowledges "I would have died of smallpox or measles" but MANY OF US WOULD HAVE. VACCINES HAVE SAVED MANY OF US IN WAYS WE WILL NEVER KNOW

not to mention healthcare adjacent public health measures like food safety and water treatment!

so anyway. that's why I said bad news. many more of us would die actually! SO MANY PEOPLE DIED, DUDE.

Holistic Approaches to Kidney Health: Renewal with Homeopathy

Kidney-related issues have become increasingly prevalent in today's fast-paced world, with conditions ranging from kidney infections to cysts and acute kidney injuries. While conventional medicine offers effective kidney treatment by homeopathy, there is a growing interest in alternative approaches such as homeopathy. This article explores the various aspects of kidney treatment using homeopathy, focusing on homeopathic remedies for kidney infections, cysts, and acute kidney injuries.

Homeopathy and Kidney Treatment:

Homeopathy is a holistic system of medicine that aims to treat the individual, addressing the physical symptoms and underlying causes. It operates on the principle of "like cures like," using highly diluted substances to stimulate the body's natural healing mechanisms. In the context of kidney treatment, homeopathy offers a unique approach that complements conventional medicine. 

Homeopathic Remedy for Kidney Infection:

Kidney infections, also known as pyelonephritis, can cause severe discomfort and pose a risk to kidney function if left untreated. Homeopathic remedies for kidney infections focus on alleviating symptoms and enhancing the body's ability to fight infection. Key homeopathic remedy for kidney infection are often prescribed for intense burning sensations during urination, a common symptom of kidney infections. Some are recommended for swelling and inflammation of the kidneys. Others are used for sudden and intense symptoms, such as high fever and sharp pains.

Kidney Cyst Treatment with Homeopathy:

Renal cysts, fluid-filled sacs that form on the kidneys, can be a source of persistent discomfort and may lead to complications. Homeopathic remedies for kidney cyst treatment

focus on reducing cyst size, managing pain, and preventing further growth. 

Homeopathy Kidney Treatment for Acute Kidney Injury:

Acute kidney injury is a sudden & rapid loss of kidney function, often resulting from severe infections, dehydration, or other medical conditions. Homeopathic treatment for acute kidney injury aims to support the kidneys' recovery and restore their normal functioning. Key homeopathic remedies for AKI are recommended for cases of acute kidney injury with extreme thirst and swelling. These are used for individuals experiencing anxiety, restlessness, and burning sensations in the kidneys. As mentioned earlier, for kidney infections, some can also be beneficial in AKI cases with intense pain during urination.

Complementary Lifestyle Measures:

In addition to homeopathic remedies, adopting specific lifestyle measures can enhance the effectiveness of homeopathy kidney treatment. Maintaining adequate hydration, following a balanced diet low in sodium and high in antioxidants, and engaging in regular physical activity contribute to overall renal health.

Conclusion:

Homeopathy offers a comprehensive and holistic approach to kidney treatment, addressing various conditions such as infections, cysts, and acute kidney injuries. While various homeopathic remedies can be a valuable addition to the treatment plan, it is essential to consult with a qualified homeopathic practitioner & work with conventional medical care. A personalised approach, considering individual symptoms and the patient's overall health, is crucial for successful acute kidney injury treatment using homeopathy. Always seek professional advice before starting any alternative medicine to ensure the best possible outcomes for kidney health.
