In your situation, the fact that you have asthma and that recent attacks and being in the hospital may have caused this change is possible. High platelets can be associated with easy bruising, bleeding, and fatigue. So, ensure that your asthma is under control and that you see your doctor for further evaluation and advice on medication to lower your platelet count.

i am a 53 years male person, for last one month i feel swelling in my nech ,can i infected with cancer

Male | 53

A swelling in your ne­ck could come from different cause­s - not cancer alone. Infections or othe­r issues might make it happen. Cance­r wouldn't be the only re­ason for neck swelling. Along with a lump, feve­r, cough, and weight loss would occur if it were cance­r. It's wise to let a doctor examine­ you thoroughly and pinpoint the trigger behind the­ swelling.

These signs may indicate issues like anemia of chronic disease, inflammation, kidney malfunction, or vitamin D deficiency. It’s important to consult a doctor for a thorough check-up and personalized treatment plan.

RDW-CV is a measure of the variation in the size of red blood cells. An increase in RDW-CV can be a sign of anemia or nutritional deficiencies. Fatigue, weakness, and paleness may be among the symptoms. To tackle this, ensure a balanced diet that is rich in iron and nutrients. Further assessment by a doctor may be helpful.

My uric acid test report 5.9 please tell me ok not ok

Male | 29

The uric acid level of 5.9 is already above normal. It might remain asymptomatic at first, yet if untreated, it may lead to gout, which is characterized by pain and swelling in the joints. Your uric acid level can be decreased by drinking more water, avoiding alcohol, and less red meat and seafood. Besides this method, exercising regularly may also be beneficial.

Male | 13

Someone­'s CD4 count below 300 and off-kilter CD4:CD8 ratio signal immune woe­s, perhaps from HIV. HIV weakens immunity. At first, HIV infe­ction shows no symptoms but later allows easy infections. Early te­sting and treatment promote he­alth.

What is aids Can you explain how hiv falls in anyone

Male | 20

AIDS stands for Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome. It's a severe condition that is unable to be healed, which is caused by a virus called HIV. HIV, which is the root of AIDS, weakens the human immune system. It is for this reason that the body can not ward off infections. Among the many symptoms of AIDS, the main ones include rapid weight loss, frequent fevers, and extreme tiredness. The most preferable treatment option is to explain HIV through the use of protection drugs during intimacy and not to use needles.  Early screening and taking the required medications could help manage the virus.

Hello I’ve been taking 25 mg atenolol for the last few months for a fast heart rate. I currently have a hemorrhoid and I want to use preparation H to relieve it. Preparation H has 0.25% of phenyleprine in it I know that can raise blood pressure. Should I still take or is there an alternative I can try?

Female | 22

Phenylephrine can raise your blood pressure and it might be unsafe for the heart if one is on atenolol already. In case you have no idea, you can use other treatments for piles that lack this drug like say witch hazel pads alternatively try out nonprescription hydrocortisone creams too. With these substitutes in mind, there won’t be any need to worry about a thing because they will still help soothe them but without affecting or changing anything about how well the medicine works for your heart condition. Nevertheless, should there still be no relief from piles after using these methods then I would advise that you talk with a healthcare professional.

Good day doc, I noticed some traces of blood in my mucur. What could be the possible cause and solution

Male | 29

When you find some blood in mucus, it can indicate several ailments. Possible reasons could be a nosebleed, irritation by dry air, or an infection such as sinusitis. If you are facing a runny nose, pain in your face, or a sore throat, that could be a sign of an infection. Drinking a lot of water, using a humidifier, and visiting a doctor if it persists are the ways to go.
