How can I lose weight fast
Male | 12
I suggest losing weight at an extreme pace as it is dangerous. Ideally, healthy weight loss happens at a rate of 1-2 pounds per week through a balanced diet and regular exercise. Individual consultations with a licensed dietitian or a certified fitness instructor are reasonably suggested for expert advice and guidance.

I am 19 yr male i put full bottle of 100 ml of 10 % povidone iodine 1% available iodine in my shoes and put my both foot into it for 30 minutes then washed with water after 30 minutes the area that came in contact with povidone iodine was from ankle to sole of foot will I get iodine toxicity
Male | 19
Soaking feet in povidone iodine for half an hour shouldn't cause toxicity. Washing it off afterward is normal. Stomach pain, vomiting, or metallic taste in the mouth indicate iodine toxicity. However, these symptoms are unlikely from your brief exposure. Avoid prolonged soaking in the future.

So I started it on Friday 12th May My first day I had to take one dose of 1g I took the four tablets in one go as said And then Saturday and Sunday I had to take 500mg once a day for 2 days. But I was spacing out the 500mg during the day on Saturday and Sunday I was taking one in the morning so 250mg and one in the evening 250mg? Was that okay to do ? Will it still work the same ?

My height is 170 cm and i want to increase it to 180 cm my parents are tall but unfortunatly i am not so i want to increase it please tell me how much it would cost and how much time also please mention the risk as well
Male | 23
You should see an endocrinologist who may identify why your growth plates stop or measure your hormone levels. It is not a fact that you can increase height by shortcuts such as limb-lengthening surgery and that surgery itself carries big risks. The cost for such procedures varies greatly and is rarely covered by medical insurance.

I'm a 40 year old female I've being overdosing on 20 paracetamol everyday for 3 years , now I feel sick and numb
Female | 40
Your situation is indicating all symptoms. Constant management of the high level of paracetamol in the body may end up in liver risk and it might be the reason for your feeling of illness and numbness. Try to go to the doctor as quickly as you can. Health professionals can carry out assessments to measure your liver function and recommend the best treatment option for you. Meanwhile, decrease the quantity of paracetamol that you take and do not consume alcohol because both can overwork your liver and affect the liver's function.

Male | 40
Spending too much time in a cold place can trigger a headache in certain people. The reason is that the cold air can narrow the blood vessels in your brain making you uneasy and uncomfortable. Take a break from the cold, have some water, and put a warm cloth on your forehead to get relief.
