General Health Care (Health) - August 2006

someone answered my question about iodine in salt and my goiter.Wanted to know if goiters are "coming back". There are fewer now because of the iodine put in salt. However, my .dr said they run in families. btw, they aren't called goiters anymore by drs. They are nodules on the thyroid.

What is the best way to remove a common wart without going to the Doctor?

I am trying Doctor Scholl's Wart Remover "Band-aids" and it is making my wart turn white. I have had the wart on my finger forever! I have been to the Doctor and he has attempted to freeze the wart off numerous times. Any suggestions? It is embarassing to have such a thing on my finger.

Could someone explain the definition of this medical term as it appears on a bill. "FX Closed Fibula"

My boyfriend had to go to the emergency room from an accident and was worked on in the ER but was not admitted into the hospital. When the bill came it was summarized and one of the items said "FX Closed Fibula" and we talked to the Dr's office and they said it is a diagnosis of his ankle and WE think it sounds like they are saying they did surgery to close his ankle where the Fibula bone was broke. Could someone with more medical terminology give us a better understanding? The doctor’s office is not being cooperative since he went to his regular Dr. and not back to the Dr. from the ER. The reason we are asking is that the charge is the highest on the bill and it just doesn’t sound right.

I have several fractures in my lower left leg along with some muscel damage.?

I don't go back to my doctor for a while and I was told today with my MRI that things do not look good. Is surgery a possibility and if so what will they do because I don't think putting a plate in would solve the problem because my bones are just breaking apart. I fractured my bones when I was lifting up a case of bottled water into an SUV and my bone popped and apparently a little piece is missing and now I have fractures too. Any advice or possible treatments would be good so I know what i'm up against. Thanks.
