Fever related problems more than 45 days

Female | 45

Having a feve­r for over 45 days isn't good. This needs me­dical help. A fever lasting so long could me­an a serious health issue. Maybe­ it's infections like tuberculosis or bacte­rial endocarditis. It's crucial to see a doctor right away for diagnosis and tre­atment. Long fevers can harm the­ body.

I tested positive for syphillis and begative for HIV. I’ve treated syphillis a week ago. i would want to know if I should retest for HIV or take PRePs for HIV.

Male | 27

When you have already been treated for syphilis then take a retest for HIV after six weeks. But PrEP alone is not enough. You still have to be safe while engaging in sexual intercourse.

I am mouma manna I am 20 year women For about 6-7 months, I have cold, cough and fever except for 10 days in 1 month.

Female | 20

Possibly you are suffering from a regularly occurring cold. Some of the common symptoms are runny nose, cold, and fever. Your exposure to viruses can bring this about. Get enough sleep, stay hydrated, and consume a well-balanced diet. Also, consider good hygiene so that the virus does not spread. If your symptoms are still not relieved, see a doctor.

HBsAg (ECLIA) Test regarding suggestions

Female | 38

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect the presence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) in the blood. This test is highly sensitive and specific and is the preferred method for the diagnosis of HBsAg infection. An electro-chemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA) can also be used to detect HBsAg in the blood. This test is less sensitive than ELISA, but it is more specific, meaning it is less likely to give a false positive result.

Iam 15 years boy and I have headache,fever,cold and cough from last 2 days

Male | 15

Headache, fever, cold, and cough are basically the same thing, which are viral infections such as the common cold or influenza. The reason behind these symptoms is that germs invade your body and cause sickness. To feel better, rest, drink plenty of water and soup, and take fever and headache medicines should be your top priorities.

Bedwetting is a problem that some people experience even in adulthood. It can be caused by reasons such as having a small bladder or not waking up when the bladder is full. In some cases, it happens because the body produces too much urine at night. To manage this, you can try limiting drinks before bedtime, setting an alarm to wake up and use the toilet during the night, or using a special bedwetting alarmTalk to a doctor, and they will help you with it.

You shouldn't have alcohol and such foods as high-fat meals or grapefruit juice since sometimes, they may interact with many medications. It is also advisable to discuss with your health care provider in case of any anxiety or doubts concerning your medication.

I think i have skin cancer but i don’t know how to tell

Female | 14

If you suspect skin cancer, consult a dermatologist. Monitor any changes in moles or spots using the ABCDE rule. Take photos for documentation and avoid self diagnosis. A dermatologist can perform a thorough examination and potentially conduct a biopsy if necessary. Early detection is key for successful treatment.

The injury has healed yet after a year a change occurred where the scarring tissue is now bulging and causing discomfort to the patient

It looks like the person has a hernia that is linked to the previous injury. I would suggest getting an appointment with a general surgery expert for further management and evaluation of that condition.

Why my fasting blood suger level is increase when i not to eat suger added foods.

Male | 63

When you ingest the sugar-added foods, it may bring your blood sugar levels to a higher level. On the other hand, if your fasting blood sugar levels are still high even when you do not include sugar-added food, it is a symptom of some medical complications. My suggestion is that you go to an internist, who is focused on hormonal evaluations and diabetes diagnosis and treatment.

1.Can I wash my hair and bath in dengue If yes then by cold or hot water 2.from the end of third day my pain goes away and fever also not happen in dengue is it a miracle to recover in 3 days

Female | 23

Washing hair and bathing with lukewarm (not too hot/cold) wate­r is fine if you have dengue­. Three days without feve­r or pain might mean you're improving. High feve­r, awful muscle/joint aches, rashes - typical de­ngue signs. Rest up, hydrate, and che­ck with a doctor if concerned.
