Dr Bhavimani gave me his immediate attention and pointed out various underlying factors that could have contributed to causing the condition. He also suggested a list of remedial measures which eventually helped me decide on the exact changes in diet and lifestyle I needed to undertake to address the problem and to affect a cure.
