General Physician
Answered on 2nd July '24
Bleeding, swollen skin can happen when teeth break the skin. Swelling might mean bacteria got inside the wound. First step: Wash hands using soap and water. Next: Apply a fresh bandage. If it worsens or pus appears, visit a doctor. Keep it clean and monitor changes closely.

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.

Your worry about getting infected from the dog bite is understandable. It's great you got the rabies shots beforehand. After such an incident, watch for signs like fever, headache, or weakness. If any present themselves, waste no time in visiting a hospital. Ensuring safety is paramount, so don't hesitate if concerns arise.

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 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.

A.o.A...my mother of 85, completely on bed she is a diabetic. Today she is sweating slightly.
Female | 85
Excessive sweating might signal her blood sugar is dipping low. That's common for folks with diabetes. Give her something sugary - a candy or juice should do the trick. Also, check those glucose readings. Staying hydrated helps too. But if the sweating persists or odd symptoms come up, don't hesitate to loop in her doctor for advice.

I have pressure in my ears
Female | 31
Having your ears feel pressurized is uncomfortable. Ear pressure comes from colds, allergies, sinus infections, or altitude changes. You're on an airplane, and everything feels blocked up. To ease pressure, try these tricks: yawning, chewing gum, holding your nose and swallowing gently. But if pressure persists or worsens, see an ENT specialist promptly.

You may find your appetite low. Constipation and gaining weight can prove challenging when very thin. Various causes like stress, poor diet, and health issues contribute. Improve appetite, gain weight: eat smaller, more frequent meals. Include more protein-rich foods, fruits, and veggies in diet. Stay hydrated. Regular exercise improves digestion and increases appetite. If problems persist, visit a doctor for evaluation.

Hello sir, I want to know about kidney stone related treatment
Male | 28
Kidney stones are painful hard bits that develop inside kidneys. They occur from lack of water intake and consuming excessive salt. Symptoms include severe pain below or back, bloody urine, feeling sick, and needing to pee frequently. To treat, drink abundant water. Take pain relievers. Sometimes surgery removes the stone. But it's better to prevent them through staying hydrated and limiting salt.
