Should I See a Doctor for Red Mucus?
I am having red mucus in colour, please consult a doctor
General Physician
Answered on 16th Oct '24
Red mucus is often a sign of bleeding in certain areas of your body, such as the nose, throat, or stomach. If it’s coming from your mouth, it could be related to a lung issue. This might be caused by an infection, irritation, or a more serious condition like pneumonia. It's important to see a doctor for an evaluation. They may run tests such as blood work, X-rays, or a bronchoscopy to identify the cause. Treatment for the bleeding will depend on its source, so it's best to get checked as soon as possible.

I done tested hiv duo combo on 30th day it's negative with value 0.13. Then I test hiv 1&2 Elisa (Antibody only) on 45th day it's also negative with value of 0.19. Am is safe? Is 45th day 3rd gen Elisa test is reliable?
Male | 21
According to your test results, it is very encouraging that both the HIV combo and Elisa tests were negative. The 3rd-generation Elisa test is reliable and fairly accurate in detecting HIV antibodies on the 45th day. Don't forget HIV symptoms can be different; however, the most common ones are flu-like symptoms, rash, and fatigue.

I'm depressed that is I'm hiv positive pls help me
Male | 19
If you have recently been diagnosed with HIV, it is quite normal to feel low. Symptoms of HIV include fever, sore throat, and being more tired than usual. The virus makes the immune system weaker, so the body cannot fight infections easily. Always, keep the thought in your mind that HIV is treatable with the help of medications. Medicines can indeed assist you in leading a healthy life. Discuss with your doctor initiating medication and going to support groups.

is there any harm in using adfill injection instead of peg religrast injection?
Female | 45
Adfill injection differs from Peg Religrast. After cancer therapy, doctors prescribe Peg Religrast to boost white blood cells. However, Adfill has a distinct purpose unrelated to increasing blood cell count. Taking medicines incorrectly risks harming your health. Your doctor knows best which medications serve your needs. Listen carefully to medical advice about proper usage.

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.

Female | 46
Finding protein and pus cells in your urine could mean an infection or kidney problem. Zero Eosinophils? That might show you're not responding well to certain allergies. And low HDL cholesterol puts you at higher risk for heart disease. It's smart to talk to a doctor about these results. They can take a closer look and tell you what to do next.

Male | 21
Iron deficiency can cause you to have low energy, feel weak, and may lead to malfunctioning of the human body. This is due to the insufficient intake of iron-rich foods and blood loss. Aspyfer-Z syrup boosts iron levels in your body and contains iron, amino acids, B-group vitamins, and zinc. It can be done under the supervision of your father but ensure you get a follow-up guide from a doctor.

You probably have bacteria making you sick. The blood tests found your white blood cells are low. However, your neutrophils, which fight infection, are high. In short, you have an infection. You need antibiotics from the doctor. Rest up. Drink fluids. Take medicine exactly as told. Listen to the doctor's instructions carefully.
