Pain in throat since three months while talk and singing and do online sung for 2/3 hours daily since 2019
Female | 36
It is alarming to you that your problem with your throat while talking and singing is chronic. This demonstrates probably an infection of the throat or vocal strain. There is no substitute for a specialist examination. I would recommend visiting an ENT specialist who will be able to analyze your vocal cords and determine the real cause of your symptoms.

A.o.A...my mother of 85, completely on bed she is a diabetic. Today she is sweating slightly.
Female | 85
Excessive sweating might signal her blood sugar is dipping low. That's common for folks with diabetes. Give her something sugary - a candy or juice should do the trick. Also, check those glucose readings. Staying hydrated helps too. But if the sweating persists or odd symptoms come up, don't hesitate to loop in her doctor for advice.

My father got viral infection last month and lost 8 kgs weight...fever lasted for only 3 days and then after leg pain and swelling happened ...and suffered from constipation so dctr gave milk of magnesia to cure constipation...now constipation got relieved...is weight loss okay or we need to check with dct?
Male | 54
It's good that your father's constipation is better now. However, losing weight after a viral infection is expected as the body manages to defend against the infection. Mucous membrane pain and swelling might be due to the inflammation response of the body to the virus. Since the constipation is better and the fever is gone, it's okay. If the weight loss persists or if any new symptoms develop, see your doctor.

Can I take amoxicillin 875 after accidentally taking amoxicillin-clav 875-125

Did you accidentally ingest amoxicillin-clav 875-125? This medication combines amoxicillin with clavulanic acid. Do not take amoxicillin 875 independently. Combining these medications can increase the risk of side effects such as diarrhea, nausea, or allergic reactions. Inform your doctor immediately about the accidental intake and follow their advice precisely.

Im 5 feet 7 inch tall and i want to gain at least 4 inchs is it possible
Male | 25
Gaining 4 inches in height after reaching adulthood is highly unlikely and practically impossible through natural means.. While there are surgical procedures like Limb lengthening that can increase height artificially, they are highly invasive, expensive, and carry significant risks, making them an unsuitable option for most people. Moreover, 4 inches of heught increase cannot be gauranteed.
