Can i smoke when i have typhoid? I am stable now and not getting any fever. I am going through injection course and it ends today.

Male | 19

It's better if you refrain from smoking immediately after recovering.. Let your body heal as smoking can weaken your immune system more.

Female | 33

According to the lymph node you state, your armpit lump may be a swollen lymph node. I recommend you see a family doctor or a specialist in internal medicine in the first place to acquire an accurate assessment and the necessary recommendations.

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.

My food is simple food like chicken ,vegetable ,lentils type

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.

A "grey zone" in an HIV test means the result falls between positive and negative, indicating uncertainty. It could be due to early infection, test issues, or other factors.

Hi, I had scarlet fever and stoped taking antibiotics a week ago, now I am sick again. I have a fever and pain in my throat when i swallow. Could it be that my scarlet fever came back after a week?

Female | 17

You might have a throat infe­ction after scarlet feve­r. Fever and throat pain come from bacte­ria causing a new infection. Not scarlet fe­ver again, but a different one­. Drink fluids, rest well, and use throat loze­nges for pain relief. Se­e a doctor if symptoms persist or worsen.

Female | 10

A fever of 103°F for four days in a child is concerning and should be evaluated by a doctor soon. Monitor her temperature regularly, ensure she stays hydrated, and seek medical attention immediately. The symptoms of a hot stomach and neck indicate infection or inflammation. Kindly consult a doctor.

Will bupemorphine show up in blood work for my new employer and there insurance, or does it have to be a specific blood test for that

Male | 28

Yes, buprenorphine can be found in blood tests. But it depends on the type of test your employer will be conducting with you. You have to inform your employer about the medications you may be taking. When it comes to questions concerning the nature of the test, it is advisable to reach out to a medical practitioner for clarifications, a psychiatrist or an addiction specialist being the best.

Not recommended to give Dexamethasone to your 7 month old unless you consult a pediatrician or a specialist. Dexamethasone is a steroid drug that is used to treat a variety of conditions, but its use in infants needs to be done after careful consideration of the dosage and side effects.

I’m feeling not concentrated and focused, I’m forgetting things, I wake at midnight and will not sleep then, my saliva and my whole body taste salty and my mood changes a lot

Male | 29

This could be a hormonal problem or a lack of certain vitamins and minerals in your body. I would advise you to see a diabetes specialist or a dietician to discuss this topic. Furthermore, developing a healthy bedtime routine as well as avoiding screens before bed is one of the points to take into account.
