Hi, Our 1.1 year old baby did a blood test, and several abnormal values were found: IMMATURE GRANULOCYTES 0.18 k/ul IMMATURE GRANULOCYTES % 1.4 NEUTROPHILS % 16 LYMPHOCYTES 10 k/ul LYMPHOCYTES % 76.8 MONOCYTES % 4.6 HEMOGLOBIN 10.6 G/Dl MCHC 31.5 G/Dl MYELOCYTES BS % 0.9 ANISOCYTOSIS + MICROCYTES + The test was done after having several bacterial and viral infections in a row (we finished with antibiotics 2 days before the test). Is there a reason to worry? Thanks!
Male | 1
Test results suggest that your 1.1-year-old baby has viral or bacterial infection, which is still going on. Probably, you should see a pediatrician ASAP and bring the results of the test along with you. They will show you the right way of treatment. Don't put off seeking medical care too much.

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.
Male | 18
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.

Skipping chronic medication might trigger problems like a yeast infection. These can also be without appetite and cause pain in the flank. Ttake your meds as prescribed to avoid them. Taking plenty of water and consuming fiber-rich foods will make it easier. If you have pain even after doing so, talk to your healthcare provider.

Hii doctor I taken the polio drops at age of under 5 but today I take by mistakely at the age of 19 there is any problem Are you unable to sleep properly at night?
Male | 19
Taking polio drops won't hurt as an adult. You might feel a little sick, like an upset stomach or feel like throwing up, but it's okay. Your body is already protected from the drops when you were little. Drink lots of water and rest if you don't feel good. It will go away soon and you'll be fine.

I am 22 years male. My problem is my voice that's feminine ..my voice is girlish..
Male | 22
The condition is called puberphonia, and occurs when the muscles in your voice box do not grow stronger during adolescence. Symptoms include speaking at a higher pitch than expected for someone of your sex. The good news is that speech therapy can help you deepen your voice so it sounds more masculine. All you have to do is keep practicing the exercises regularly with a speech therapist - you will see progress soon enough.

What the meaning of Tbt and how can I get better
Female | 25
TBT means tension-type headache. This is a common type of headache that often seems like a tight band around the head. The cause might be anxiety, incorrect posture, or not enough sleep. To improve, try to relax more often, sit up straighter, get more rest, and find ways to reduce or cope with stress. These kinds of headaches can be stopped by doing regular physical activity and making sure you drink plenty of water.

Diet plan for weight gain
Female | 20
Regularly eating full, nutritious meals will help you gain weight healthily. Nuts, seeds, avocados, and healthy fats provide calorie-rich nutrients. Yogurt and nut butter make great snacks. Aim for three meals daily, plus snacks in between. Increasing daily calorie intake this way supports weight gain. Don't forget to drink lots of water too.

Female | 17
Some changes to your body need attention. Losing weight rapidly, without effort, isn't normal. It might result from thyroid issues, diabetes, or even stress. Tiredness, dizziness, frequent hunger - these symptoms require caution. To ensure safety, it's wise to consult a healthcare provider and determine the underlying cause.

The baby suffering loose motion may have multiple factors as a cause. These include infections, teething, and food intolerance. As for the baby, hydration is one of the priorities achieved by feeding the baby with breast milk or ORS solutions as desired.
