Effective management of health is key to well-being in later life. Dr. Latchman Hardowar provides expert, compassionate care for a range of conditions common in older adults, with a focus on managing symptoms and maintaining function. Common areas of focus include:

• Ear Ache: Earaches can be bothersome, but thankfully, most are treatable. Your doctor can diagnose the problem and recommend the best approach to alleviate the pain and help you feel better, ensuring you maintain your daily activities.
• Prostatitis: While prostatitis, inflammation of the prostate gland, can be concerning, it's important to know that effective treatments are available to reduce pain and improve urinary function, allowing you to live a more comfortable life.
• Rash: If you have a rash that's spreading, changing, or causing significant discomfort, it's crucial to seek medical attention promptly to prevent further issues and enhance your quality of life.
• Heart Disease: Heart disease, a common concern as we age, involves problems with the heart's structure or function, but with proper treatment and care, you can often enjoy a full and active life.
• Allergies: Managing allergies effectively as you age involves identifying your triggers and working with your doctor to find the right medications or allergy shots to help you breathe easier and live more comfortably.
• Herpes Simplex Infection: While herpes simplex virus can cause painful sores, effective antiviral treatments are available to lessen the frequency and severity of outbreaks, helping you maintain your daily activities.
• Anemia: Feeling tired and weak? Anemia might be the reason. It's a shortage of red blood cells, and with proper diagnosis and treatment—often involving dietary changes or medication—you can regain your strength and feel more energetic.
• Dyslipidemia: High cholesterol (dyslipidemia) is a manageable condition; with your doctor's guidance, you can use medication and lifestyle adjustments to lower your cholesterol and protect your heart health, which greatly contributes to a healthier life and better overall well-being.
• Tonsillitis: A sore throat and difficulty swallowing might indicate tonsillitis, a treatable condition that, with appropriate medical attention, can be resolved to prevent further discomfort and ensure you continue enjoying your favorite meals and social engagements.
• Osteopenia: If you have osteopenia, it means your bones are losing density, but with appropriate medical care including medication and a healthy lifestyle, you can slow this process and keep your bones strong.
• Limb Pain: Don't let limb pain limit your enjoyment of life. Seeking help early can make a big difference. Your doctor can assess your condition, find the best course of action, and ensure you receive appropriate care to manage your pain and maintain your independence.
• Acute Sinusitis: Experiencing facial pain, pressure, and a persistent stuffy nose could indicate acute sinusitis, a temporary infection of the sinuses that usually responds well to simple treatments like rest, hydration, and over-the-counter medications, ensuring you can quickly return to your normal activities.
