Why do I get tired easily and feel cold?
Good Morning I am a male, 29years from Southwest Nigeria, I have some illness I have been noticed for a while and i need advice. I always love football before but for a while I leave that activity due to academic pursuit but anytime I tried it now I get tired easily as if I will faint and slump. And moreover I get cold easily and which doesn't allow me to breathe deep as I should, but I noticed that anytime I take hot water or use hot water to bath I felt relieved but I don't think I should be using hot water for the rest so I am seeking a proper consultation

Anemia occurs when your body doesn't have enough healthy red blood cells to carry oxygen, leading to fatigue, cold sensitivity, weakness, and shortness of breath. While hot water may temporarily improve circulation, it's not a long-term solution. I recommend seeing a doctor for a blood test to check your red blood cell levels. Anemia can be caused by factors like iron deficiency or illness, and treatment may involve dietary changes, iron supplements, or other medications, depending on the cause. Getting proper medical care is essential to address your symptoms.

Hi. I am 28 years old male.. I have an issue which is giving me sleepless night. I had sexual intercourse with am old friend of mine (without using protection). 1 week after having sex with her, I start to feel sore throat, slight headache which later lead to swollen lymph nodes ( i have a slight Difficulty in breathing after having the lymph nodes) but no fever and rash. Went for test but i was HIV negative (the test was not up to 2 weeks after having all this symptoms). What can be the cause?
Male | 28
The symptoms you mentioned such as a sore throat, headache, and swollen glands can be signs of many things, not just HIV. It’s great that you took the test and even better that it came back negative. These signs are sometimes caused by an attack of virus or bacteria. It would be best if you went to see a doctor or other healthcare provider who will give you a proper diagnosis and prescribe medication for treatment.

Male | 56
Food allergies mean your body has an abnormal reaction to certain foods. Bumps, swelling, and rashes appear after eating the food. Lips may swell up. Surprisingly, commonplace foods like chicken or veggies can trigger this. Visit a doctor to do allergy tests and determine the cause. They'll help identify foods that are unsafe for you to eat.

My whole body aches, including my eyes my joints and my internals, I took muscle relaxers because I was told it should help (methocarbamol) and I'm also on birth control (Norethindrone)
Female | 20
Muscle relaxers like methocarbamol may help with muscle spasms but won't address the underlying issue. Birth control pills like Norethindrone typically don't cause widespread body aches. You must consult with your doctor to find out the causes of the pain, they may advice some tests or examination to check.

For personalized advice on managing uric acid levels and your diet, consult a professional or a registered dietitian. Some sprouts like barley can be beneficial, but it's essential to consume them in moderation. Regarding apple cider vinegar, evidence is limited, and it's best to seek professional guidance for your specific health condition.

Hello. I'm 18, Male, 169cm, 59kg. Today I saw and felt this small lump right on my sternum. I don't smoke nor drink and don't have any current medications. It doesn't hurt and it's actually hard, just like any bone, you can't move it or anything. What might it be? cause I've been pretty scared and worried.

A small, hard lump on the sternum could be a normal bone anatomy, benign or malignant tumors, cysts, lipomas, or inflammation of the chest cartilage. Consult with a specialist for an accurate diagnosis and personalized guidance. They can perform an examination and order additional tests if needed.

HBsAg (ECLIA) Test regarding suggestions
Female | 38
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect the presence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) in the blood. This test is highly sensitive and specific and is the preferred method for the diagnosis of HBsAg infection. An electro-chemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA) can also be used to detect HBsAg in the blood. This test is less sensitive than ELISA, but it is more specific, meaning it is less likely to give a false positive result.

Hiii sir my question can leech bites couse of artery and vein block and nerrow. 2. Second question sir leech come inside male urinary bladder and kidney failure couse.
Male | 24
Rarely do leech bites become problematic using blockage in the arteries and veins; this is due to the properties contained in the leech saliva that naturally preclude the formation of clots. Nevertheless, the severe reactions to leech bites still may occur: an important consequence of the reactions is manifested as swelling and inflammation. Incidents of leeches entering the urinary bladder of males are a barely rare occurrence, but if that happens, it will stimulate infection problems, while more severe cases can lead to kidney failure. If you fear that a leech bite has bitten you or if you have any unusual symptoms, the best thing to do is to see a doctor soon.

Male | 17
Having fever, cough, or headache may signify a cold or flu coming. Your body's battling infection - fever kills germs, coughing clears lungs, and headaches stem from congestion. Rest, hydrate well, and take OTC meds for relief.
