Filariasis is a parasitic disease that is transmitted through the bites of infected mosquitoes. It is not a sexually transmitted disease, and sexual contact with a person who has filariasis is not a direct cause of transmission.

Hello lybrate-user, filariasis has got nothing to do with what you eat. If you are positive for filariasis infection you can effectively treat it with medicine. If you already got lymphedema associated with filariasis disease, then it can't be cured. Please get proper medical help.

As your father have filariasis on both legs for 15 years and sciatica -recently --i recommend a check-up by a good medical consultant first. Then you may have to go to neurologist / ortho doctor/ podiatrist-- as per his findings --all such doctors are available in good medical colleges and terciary care hospitals.

Ask your doctor how long you should wait after the procedure before having sex. Don’t have sex until you feel comfortable. You usually need to wait about a week after surgery. You’ll have to wait at least 4 weeks if sterilization is done shortly after childbirth.

Hi lybrate-user. Better choose a sunscreen that suits your skin with the help of a cosmetologist. It will give you a good results than now. For dryness of skin you should drink plenty of water throught out a day on regular basis, add more fruits n veggies to your diet. Increased stress also make you looks old that your actual age.

Filariasis spreads thr mosquitoes. So kindly make mosquito proof nets protection for doors; windows etc .use mosquito repellents and mosquito nets. Take the filaria suspected person to a health centre; do check-up and give treatment-if needed. Do cleaning of your neighbourhood and avoid open water collections and solid waste collections in your area. Give health education to community on filariasis control.

Hello lybrate-user
I understand your concern.
Eye sight is very crucial for our routine.
I guess you have tried different medicines.
Homeopathy can really help in weak eye sight.
Homeopathic medicines act on cellular level and benefit deeper issues.
Along with medicine
add retinol and vitamin c and e in your diet.
