Hi, I'd like to be anonymous. Over the past couple of years, I’ve started noticing fine lines and wrinkles around my eyes and mouth area, and it’s making me feel self-conscious. I have regular meetings and client interactions. I work as a senior manager in a marketing firm in Bangalore. I’ve been considering options to smoothen my skin, but I’m confused if I should go for non-invasive procedures like Botox or fillers or opt for a more permanent solution like a facelift. I’m 42 years old. Looking forward to your suggestions.

Ans: Hi.. The first step is to decide in your mind whether you want mild changes or s drastic change.
2nd step is to discuss with the specialist whether a drastic change is possible or not and how would it look. ( A plastic surgeon may be best suited for this job).
After this you can decide.
On the otherside, if there are a lot of loose skin and you do only minimal change by non invasive method, you may not be satisfied with the results.

So a good thought should go into it and good and candid discussion with ur doctor is required

Hi Doctor, I’m a 26-year-old woman, and I’ve been struggling with large breasts since my teenage years. They’ve caused chronic back pain, poor posture, and even emotional distress due to unwanted attention. I’ve been considering breast reduction surgery for years but keep hesitating out of fear. I personally don't know anyoen who has done the surgery so I don't know how my body might look after the surgery. Could you help me understand if the surgery can help me and what would the approximate cost of the procedure? Is it painful? Will there be scars?

Ans: Breast Reduction will definitely help you as they have helped many others with similar problems. Please consult a plastic surgeon.
It is generally a very safe surgery

Sir, Partial dropper this side,at kle Technological University placements have been dropping here so now my options are iiit dharwad cse vs iit dharwad bs ms /engineering physics...i want to do a job for few years before eventually going to research/teaching ... suggest something for me.. thank you..

Ans: Prefer CSE at IIIT Dharwad. IIT Dharwad BS-MS/Engineering Physics is better suited for students already committed to research or higher studies. The IIT tag is valuable, but for your stated goal (job first, research later), IIIT Dharwad CSE is the more practical choice. However, it is highly recommended to talk face to face with any counsellor in your home city or nearby to get more clarity and make the correct decision if you think so after my reply.

Good luck.

Physiotherapist - Answered on Jun 13, 2026

Asked by Anonymous - Jun 08, 2026Hindi

Health

I have asked this question 3 weeks ago and still no response. Please can someone address this. Hi health expert, I have been struggling with severe health anxiety for many years now. I am currently in my mid-40s and I think this started after a traumatic experience around 10–12 years ago. We had gone on a family vacation and shortly after returning my uncle fell seriously ill. After diagnosis we found out he had advanced stage cancer and we lost him within a few months. The shock of that experience affected me deeply and ever since then I have lived with an intense fear of cancer and serious illness. Even small things like a stomach ache, a pimple, swelling, fever, or any unusual sensation trigger extreme fear in me. I immediately start thinking the worst and it causes sleepless nights and constant worry. This has seriously affected my quality of life. Along with the anxiety, my OCD symptoms also become very intense during these phases. It feels like there’s a voice in my head constantly telling me to perform certain rituals like praying immediately, drinking water at a specific moment, not switching off the AC, or doing random actions “or else” something bad will happen. It becomes mentally exhausting, and at times I struggle to function normally in my daily routine. I have consulted several psychiatrists and psychologists over the years, but I still feel unhappy and stuck. I am reaching out here to ask if anyone has experienced something similar or found anything that genuinely helped whether coping techniques, home remedies, calming practices, or anything else that brought some peace and stability. Basically I am looking for some home remedy and also want to check is this something rare or they are people who goi through this.

Ans: Dear Sir/ Madam. Thank you for reaching out. I am responding as Physiotherapist which is allied health care professional and not as core medical professional. As a physiotherapist, I want you to know that what you're experiencing is not rare many people live with this cycle of health anxiety ..A simple but powerful home remedy is diaphragmatic breathing: inhale slowly for 4 seconds, hold for 2, exhale for 6 seconds, repeating for 5–10 minutes whenever a trigger arises. Progressive muscle relaxation (tensing and releasing each muscle group from toes to head) can also calm your nervous system and break the urge to perform rituals. Gentle, mindful walking outdoors for 15–20 minutes daily helps ground you in physical sensations rather than fearful thoughts. I strongly recommend to also visit a Psychiatrist as well as clinical psychologist specializing in exposure and response prevention (ERP) therapy, which is highly effective for health anxiety. Additionally, consult family physician to rule out any underlying medical issues, which may ease your fears. Keep taking small steps. I wish you quick recovery

Ans: Kavitha Madam, IIT-Nagpur? Seems there is a typing error. I think you refer about IIIT-Nagpur-ECE.

Still, IIIT-Nagpur-ECE Is a Good Choice Madam. All The BEST for Your Son's Bright Future.
