Why Do I Have Sore Throat After Unprotected Sex?
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?

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.

Recently had 3 blood transfusions during a short stay at the hospital. I have a bruise line on the opposite arm from an iv at the hospital 2 days prior that was in for a few hours. In the other arm, the had the iv for 3 days straight, that vein has hardened a bit. I have been breathing a small amount heavier than when I was released a week ago.

After BLOOD TRANSFUSIONS, bruising and vein damage are common. Heavy breathing may indicate low oxygen levels. Check with your doctor regarding your symptoms.

I'm 27 years male....I still didn't have beard and hair growth on my body....how to recover from this
Male | 27
Hormonal imbalances or underlying medical conditions can be the reason for less beard hair growth. Avoid stress, maintain a healthy lifestyle, and be patient as hair growth can vary. For concerns related to a lack of facial and body hair growth and potential hormonal imbalances you should consider consulting an endocrinologist

I am 18 years old I have chest restless from 3 day
Male | 18
This can happen due to nerves, too much coffee, or reflux. Try and stay calm, lay off the caffeine, and have smaller meals throughout the day. If it doesn’t go away speak with someone who cares about your well-being; take some long deep breaths while you’re at it. Remember to drink water and get rest.

I had trouble swallowing 2 weeks back, and 3 days ago I went to Jaipur. Now am having fever continuously from 3 days when I came back to Delhi. I wonder if it's due to heat wave or some std. I have a small rash on my left leg and about 102 degree fever.
Female | 22
You may have acquired an infection while away. A temperature and eruption on your leg may indicate an infection rather than a heat rash or an STD. The trouble with swallowing earlier could have been your system’s way of trying to fight off this infection. You must go to the doctor as soon as possible and let them examine you so they can give you the right treatment for it and make you feel better.

Does height supplements will work for me, I am a 14 year old boy.Iam currently 5.2 feet and my father's height is 5.2 feet and mother's height is 4.8 feet. I have hit puberty early like 11 or 12. Can I grow to 5.7 feet with daily exercises and necessary food
Male | 14
So, I would refer you to a pediatric endocrinologist for a thorough evaluation of your chances of reaching the normal height. But exercise and a good diet are vital for growth, the use of height supplements is not recommended showing that they are not effective. The specialist can suggest a combination of other interventions that best suits you in terms of your needs and potential growth.

I've read online that 10mg Morphine is approximately equivalent to 100mg Tramadol, does that mean taking 100mg Tramadol would be as effective at treating severe pain as taking 10mg morphine ?
Male | 29
Comparing the effectiveness of morphine and tramadol in treating severe pain can be challenging because individual responses vary. While there's a rough conversion ratio of 10mg morphine to 100mg tramadol, it's not a precise rule. Both medications have different mechanisms and may work better for certain types of pain. Consult your physician doctor for dosage recommendations for you.

Swallowing a relatively small amount of fluoride mouthwash such as Crest Pro Health Advanced is hardly an impending doom. But if you show any signs of abdominal pain, vomiting or breathing difficulties then immediately go to the hospital.
