Answered on 23rd May '24
I must inform you that after the age of 18-20, the growth plates in your bones usually fuse, and your bones stop growing. So it's unlikely that you can increase your height by 2.5 to 3 inches through medical treatment, supplements, or medicines.
There is also a surgical procedure called Limb lengthening but its a complex one considered as a last resort for those with severe limb length discrepancies and comes with certain risks & complications.

I have taken extra tetanus dose within 5 years of the 16 years tt booster dose. Is there any problem if i take tetanus twice?
Female | 18
Getting an extra tetanus shot within 5 years of your last one isn't serious. Extra doses don't harm you, though injection sites may get sore or red, with mild fever. Side effects resolve alone. No need for concern; your body handles it fine. Next time, be mindful of due dates to avoid confusion.

Seek medical attention if headache persists...

I took anti rabies vaccine yesterday, can I drink alcohol after 48 hrs? As on next day I have last vaccine shot
Male | 29
After receiving the vaccine, it is alright to have alcohol after 48 hours. Drinking alcohol while taking a vaccine could potentially cause some mild side effects like nausea and headache. However, all you need to do is wait 48 hours after each shot, and you will be able to get back to normal. Make sure to follow the vaccine's instructions exactly as they are written to protect yourself and talk to your healthcare provider if you have any worries.

Can stem cell therapy cure kidney disease 100%
Male | 41
Stem cell therapy shows promise for treating kidney disease, but its ability to cure the condition 100% is not guaranteed. Factors like the type of kidney disease, patient's health, and treatment approach play a role. While there have been positive results, realistic expectations and consultation with specialists are important due to ongoing research in this field.

I was having fever for last three days but after medicine its coming again i had medicine but its not cured.what will i do doctor.now i did blood check up .
Male | 50
For the past three days, you've had a fever, which suggests your body is fighting an infection. If the fever returns after taking medication, it's important to find out the underlying cause. A blood test can help identify the issue. Although you might not feel like engaging in sports or socializing, staying active can benefit your recovery. You did well in your last session, and your doctor has cleared you to continue treatment under their supervision.

My mother is an asthama patient, she got mild fever and body pain so I have given her ibrufen 200 mg ,if there is any contradiction then what to do. Can I give her Montamac tablet and her Formanide pump
Female | 56
Fever and body pain can be caused by different things, and giving ibuprofen is usually a sensible thing to do. On the other, ibuprofen is not the best choice for asthma patients because it can sometimes make things worse. You can also try giving Montamac tablets for the fever and body pain as an alternative to ibuprofen. The use of her Formanide pump, which medical professionals have prescribed for her asthma, must be strictly observed. The same is true if the symptoms worsen, it is necessary to see a doctor.
