Looking for a good doctor for rheumatoid arthritis...

Hi mums, I’d really appreciate some advice. Someone close to me has been experiencing symptoms that may be related to rheumatoid arthritis, and we’re considering seeing a specialist. For those who have gone through something similar, could you recommend a rheumatologist or clinic and share what you looked for when choosing one?

I’d recommend getting the symptoms checked by a rheumatologist, especially with ongoing swelling and morning stiffness. A friend of mine consulted Dr Anindita Santosa after dealing with swollen fingers, aching wrists and difficulty making a fist. She was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, and was given appropriate medication and follow-up to help manage her symptoms. Her experience made her feel more confident about choosing a best rheumatologist in Singapore 🤍☺️

anyone experienced hammer toe?

My husband has been complaining about discomfort around his toes, especially when wearing certain shoes, and I noticed that some of his toes are starting to curl or bend. We are wondering if this could be hammer toes or claw toes. For those who have been through something similar, could you recommend a clinic or foot specialist in Singapore that we could consult?

Yes, curled or bent toes with pain or discomfort in shoes can be signs of hammer toes or claw toes. My husband had similar symptoms, including pain around his toes, rubbing inside his shoes, and difficulty wearing some of his usual footwear. He was diagnosed with hammer toe after seeing Dr Yung Shing Wai, who recommended surgery to straighten the affected toe. After the surgery, he found it much easier and more comfortable to wear his shoes and walk around. I would consider him if you are looking for a top foot doctor in Singapore. ☺️

Just curious.. is preg mommy allow to do tattoo? Like eyebrow embroidery, tattoo and such.

I checked this before too mommy, and most advice I got was to avoid tattoos or eyebrow embroidery during pregnancy. Main concerns are risk of infection and chemicals/pigments that might not be fully safe for baby.

Help pls parents esp from Singapore

Has anyone’s child had an outer ear infection? My child has been complaining of ear pain and tenderness around the outer ear, and I’m wondering how other parents managed it. Did you see a GP or paediatric ENT, and how long did it take for the symptoms to settle?

Hi, I’m from Singapore. My child had an outer ear infection about six months ago, and I remember being quite worried too. We decided to consult Dr Lau Chee Chong for ENT care in Singapore, and the treatment helped the symptoms settle within several days, although the tenderness took a little longer to go away. If your child is still having pain or repeated infections, I’d suggest seeing a Paediatric ENT so they can check the cause and recommend the right treatment. Hopefully your little one feels better soon.

Parents in Singapore, has anyone dealt with recurring ear infections in their children?

had a few ear infections recently, and I’m wondering when it’s best to see a paediatric ENT and what treatment was recommended for your child.

I had the same worry with my daughter when she started getting repeated ear infections in Singapore. We took her to Dr Lau Chee Chong, a paediatric ENT doctor here in Singapore, and the treatment recommended depended on the cause of her infection, including medication and ear drops. I’d suggest seeing an ENT so your daughter can be checked and you know which treatment is suitable for her.

Is electrosurgery safe for us women?

Has anyone here had electrosurgery done before? I’m a bit worried and would like to know what the experience was like.

It can be safe, but it really depends on what is being treated. I had a small skin lesion that became sore and started bleeding when rubbed. Dr Wong Su-Ni checked it and diagnosed the lesion before performing electrosurgery to remove it. I was glad I consulted the best dermatologist in Singapore instead of trying to deal with it myself. If you’re still looking for a dermatologist, I’d recommend Dr Wong Su-Ni. 🤍
