How can I break my soft drink consumption habit?
I have got into the habit of drinking Mountain Dew. How to stop it?
General Physician
Answered on 28th May '24
Drinking too many sugary drinks like Mountain Dew could lead to problems such as gaining weight, having decayed teeth, or even damaging your heart eventually. To quit, attempt changing over to water or other healthy beverages. Besides, reduce the quantity of Mountain Dew cans or bottles you buy so they are not easily accessible when needed most.

Can I eat banana chips during kidney stone
Male | 19
Banana chips can be high in sodium and unhealthy fats since it is fried. If you have kidney stones, you need to limit your intake of sodium and unhealthy fats. High sodium intake can increase calcium excretion in urine, potentially contributing to the formation of certain types of kidney stones.

Can I take the tacky and Benadryl together
Female | 18
Don't take Tums and Benadryl together. Tums can help with heartburn or other stomach problems, while Benadryl might be used for itching caused by allergies. However, if both drugs are taken simultaneously it may result in side effects such as dizziness, sleepiness and confusion. For better performance without health risks ensure they have been taken few hours apart.

I experience body reaction when ever I stay for long without eating,,my body start reacting while swelling with itching condition. It happens for some minutes and disappear immidiately after taking some rest,,i consulted many doctors and they tells me it is allergic reaction but this sickness is worsening,,what can I do?
Male | 35
You might have exercise-induced urticaria. With this, your body gets deprived of food. It reacts by making skin itch and swell. The body releases histamine, a substance causing allergic reactions. Your case relates to lack of food. Manage it by eating small, frequent meals. This keeps blood sugar stable. It may prevent reactions. If issue continues, see a doctor. They'll further evaluate and guide you.

Is sugar level 106.24 H is valid for medical test ?
Male | 22
The term "106.24 H" is not a standard unit of measurement for blood sugar levels. Blood sugar levels are typically measured in milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) or millimoles per liter (mmol/L).
If the value you mentioned, 106.24 H, is in mg/dL or mmol/L, it would be helpful to know the reference range or normal range provided by the specific laboratory or healthcare institution conducting the test.

I am suffering from blockage of nose from a month as one and a half month ago I got viral fever cold cough which is gone in 5-6 days but I am suffering from nose blockage difficulty in breathing I got it checked then came to know I was suffering from pneumonia and got the treatment for 15 days but still nose blockage and inflammation is still there I am using nasal spray too but I am not getting relief
Female | 44
You could well have nasal obstruction that was a result of your recent pneumonia. I could suggest the Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist. In addition, despite these interventions, please do not forget to use the nasal spray as prescribed and indulge in activities that do not aggravate the obstruction of your sinus.

Female | 18
To gain weight, you need to consume more calories than you burn. Increase your calorie intake by eating nutrient-dense foods, such as nuts, seeds, and lean proteins. Incorporate strength training exercises to build muscle mass, and aim to get adequate sleep and manage stress levels.

Understanding your gender identity is a personal journey, and your feelings since childhood are valid. Consult a gender therapist or mental health professional to explore your thoughts and receive guidance. If desired, you can consider social, medical, or legal transitions, but take time to proceed at your own pace.

Male | 21
It will be good to avoid heavy or sugary foods like hot rasagulla. Follow a BRAT diet: Bananas, Rice, Applesauce, and Toast. Drink plenty of fluids and consider plain boiled chicken and cooked vegetables. Avoid spicy, fried, and dairy foods. Stay hydrated and consult a doctor if symptoms persist.

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.

Male | 25
The symptoms you have mentioned strongly imply either a systematic iron or vitamin B12 deficiency. The symptoms are fatigue, weakness, shortness of breath, and other problems. If the injections fail, increasing dietary intake of iron-rich foods like spinach, and lentils, and vitamin B12 sources like eggs, dairy, or fortified cereals is essential. Regularly with consumption of these nutrients, you will feel better.

This sounds more like what is known as chronic rhinitis problem, which involves inflammation of the nasal lining and leads to persistent cold-like symptoms; these include congestion, runny nose as well sneezes. My advice would be to consult with an ENT in order to obtain the appropriate diagnosis and treatment personalized for your case.
