I have constant constipation even tho I take fibrous foods. This makes me pass a lot of gas and have bloating. What should I do please?
Female | 18
Constipation can be caused by a number of factors, including a lack of fiber and water in the diet, as well as a sedentary lifestyle. However, if you are already consuming a fibrous diet and still experiencing constipation, it may be a sign of an underlying medical condition. As a medical expert, I advise you to visit a gastroenterologist for proper diagnosis and treatment. They will be able to recommend a suitable treatment plan to address your issue.

It could be related to issues like sciatica or a pinched nerve. It's crucial to consult a professional doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment. Sciatica, a herniated disc, or spinal stenosis might be causing the discomfort. Consider seeking medical attention for evaluation, managing pain with ice/heat and pain relievers, maintaining good posture, and avoiding activities that worsen the pain.

I recommend that you schedule an appointment with a pediatrician as fast as possible. A fever protracted more than three days shows a serious illness or infection. A pediatrician may diagnose the underlying factor that has caused the fever and prescribe appropriate treatment.

Female | 38
Taking an extra dose of medication, especially in this case, can be potentially dangerous and may lead to overdose or adverse reactions. Swine flu is a serious viral infection, and taking medication as prescribed is crucial for proper treatment. However, taking more than the prescribed dose can lead to harmful side effects.

Can a 47 years old woman get pregnant naturally after manopause?
Female | 47
No, a woman who has gone through menopause, defined as the absence of menstruation for 12 consecutive months, cannot get pregnant naturally. Menopause marks the end of a woman's reproductive years, as the ovaries cease to release eggs (ovulate).
If you wish to conceive after menopause, you would generally require assisted reproductive technologies such as IVF with donor eggs or other specialized treatments.

Based on the description, it would appear you do have filiform warts, which are fairly common growths caused by human papillomavirus (HPV).

I ate some raw chicken approx 42 hours ago. Yesterday (12 hours ago) I had nausea and diarrhea for an hour then felt mostly back to normal for the rest of the day. This morning I woke up and felt sluggish and a bit dizzy along with some diarrhea (for an hour again), but no vomiting. Will my symptoms subside or will I start to throw up? Or will I just have stomach problems for the next day or two?
Male | 20
RAW CHICKEN may cause FOOD POISONING. SYMPTOMS often subside within 48 HOURS. STAY HYDRATED and REST... SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION if symptoms persist
