Cytomegalovirus and Buerger's disease advice column
Reader questions on cytomegalovirus transmission and treatment, Buerger's disease causes and smoking link, and leg edema in the elderly. Dr Donohue explains CMV as a widespread but usually mild virus with no specific medicine, notes salivary transmission, and warns of risks with weakened immunity and pregnancy. He defines Buerger's disease as inflammatory, not atherosclerosis, linked to smoking, and emphasizes smoking cessation. He discusses leg swelling causes, the need to identify underlying heart or vein issues, and cautious use of diuretics only after examination. He also addresses blood type permanence, asserting no known change.
