Female | 20
The symptoms that you are experiencing can be because of many reasons so I advise you to visit a doctor in person for understanding the exact cause. These symptoms can also be the result of your anxiety. So, it would be of great help if you consulted a counsellor for managing your anxiety. You can also try meditation and breathing exercises to lower your stress and anxiety.

Dear Sir / Mam, On Saturday evening my cat scratch on my hand it bleeds but last seven months ago I have already vaccinated myself should I retake rabies vaccine this time.
Male | 24
If a cat started to bite you and there is an exposure, remember that it's so important to immediately wash it with water and soap and after that call the doctor. If the wound looks like it's getting infected, not only to run a rabies test would be safer but also for the welfare of other's rabies treatments might be needed. On the other hand, you may not need to retake the rabies vaccine, but still it is better to keep watching the wound and ask for medical advice if necessary.

How to decide for a plastic surgery or general surgery
Male | 19
Deciding between plastic surgery and general surgery depends on your specific medical condition or cosmetic goals. General surgery is for medical conditions, while plastic surgery is for aesthetic enhancement. Consider your health, risks, recovery, and consult with experienced surgeons before making a decision. Prioritize your well being in any medical choice.

Attending a doctor is also useful especially when a person faces an illness. When the speech issues persist, it is advisable to see a speech-language pathologist who has experience in identifying and treating speech disorders.

hello, this isn’t for me but for my friend instead. he’s been having a bad sore throat recently. he’s been given antihistamine which helped relieve it temporarily. he’s also been taking honey lemon water to hydrate and lubricate his throat. however even after taking apprx 7 litres of liquid intake today his throat feels very very dry. for the past two hours he has been feeling very been feeling and having a very bad headache,feels that either his blood pressure or sugar level is acting up, had an episode of nosebleed for a minute and had been coughing up blood and green mucus.
Male | 24
Your friend must be going through a troubling physiological state. Sore throat, nasal congestion, fever, headache, nosebleed, cough, and even the blood and mucus signs can indicate a particular disease. Make it an obligation to see a healthcare specialist as soon as possible. These symptoms may be due to biological complications or some causatives such as infections and high blood pressure upon which the treatment sits. A doctor should examine what is wrong with him and provide the treatment.

I was consulting a sangoma(witchdoctor) who gave me something to drink over a course of four months. Now i cant feel the effects of my medication or any other drugs for that matter. What could have been in the drink and how do I counter it?
Male | 20
The beverage you had from the traditional healer might have had substances that blocked your body from taking in or reacting to drugs. Sometimes specific plants or chemicals can do this. The things you are going through like not being affected by medication could be because of this blockage. I suggest you stop taking the beverage at once and go to see a doctor. They will be able to examine you and give you the right treatment.

Speech delay in my child. And unable to understand things
Male | 3
Your child would probably experience speech impairment and fluency issues. It would be a good idea to see a pediatrician first, who will, in case of necessity, refer you to a speech-language pathologist for more extensive evaluation and treatment. It is highly suggested to have early intervention.

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.

Female | 48
High TG is synonymous with high triglyceride levels in the blood. This would require you to consult a doctor, ideally, a specialist on lipids or endocrinology. The doctor may suggest such drugs as statins and fibrates accompanied by recent exercise and a balanced diet.

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.
