In case you are experiencing HIV symptoms seek medical assistance as early as possible. It is also important to note that a negative test does not necessarily mean you do not have HIV. You may need to wait at least 3 months after exposure to get the most accurate test result. Consult with a specialist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

I took 50 pills ( vitamin C and zinc tablets) at once nothing happened I'm I in danger
Female | 25
Taking 50 pills of vitamin C and zinc all at once can be dangerous! It may induce tummy pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Too much zinc in your body can also be bad for you. Don't waste any time. Seek medical assistance without hesitation. Water drinking may be useful in getting rid of leftover vitamins and minerals. Your body needs time for healing.

I got punched on my upper forearms, what to do to reduce the time it takes to heal
Male | 14
To speed up forearm injury healing, rest the affected area, apply ice packs every few hours, use compression, elevate the arms, consider pain relievers, and start gentle exercises after a few days. Maintain a balanced diet, avoid applying heat, and refrain from smoking and excessive alcohol. If severe pain or concerning symptoms persist, see a doctor for treatment.

I am 16 year old girl . I have irregular periods. Main problem is that I want to lose weight anyhow in 15 days. Current weight is 56 kg . I have to be a 48 kg . Means I want to lose 7 kgs . Please tell me . I will exercise just tell me what to do. An but diet n all in my house , mother won't agree. But she wants me to lose weight and even I. Please doctor
Female | 16
I would suggest you seek the assistance of a gynecologist to address your period abnormalities. It is not advisable to lose weight in 15 days and it is detrimental to health. Healthy weight loss involves adopting a balanced diet and partaking in regular physical activities.

I have a sore throat and a blocked nose and some fever what should I take to treat that and also unfortunately I won’t be able to attend school so I need a prescription saying that I’m sick so my absence is excused
Female | 15
It sounds like you may be experiencing a viral infection, often characterized by a sore throat, nasal congestion, and fever. For relief, consider taking over-the-counter medications like acetaminophen for fever and throat pain, and a decongestant for nasal blockage. Staying hydrated and resting are also essential for recovery. I recommend consulting a physician for a full evaluation and specific treatment advice and to obtain a medical excuse for school.

Sir my wife taken TT injection Today. Now she have fever Sir. We shall give Dolan for fever
Female | 38
Sometimes the fever is due to the body's reaction when it is repelling the virus or vaccine. Dolan can be given to her to make it better by decreasing the temperature. She must rest, drink a lot of water, and stay in a comfortable condition. Anything that is out of the normal including fever which continues for a long period or becomes worse, should be brought to the attention of a physician.

Can a 17 years old take vitamin c tablet?
Female | 17
Yes, a 17-year-old can take Vitamin C tablets. Vitamin C plays a critical role in the body by keeping it healthy and boosting the immune system. If you easily get tired, prone to illnesses, or have wounds that take too long to heal, it might be an indication that you lack enough of this vitamin. You can meet your daily requirements of Vitamin C by taking tablets.

Female | 25
Aapke partner ki health ke liye kuch common symptoms hain jaise thakan, khansi, ya bhook kam lagna. Inki wajah viral infections, stress, ya kisi lifestyle issue ho sakta hai. Sabse pehle, acchi tarah se rest karna aur balanced diet lena zaroori hai. Hamesha paani piyen aur stress management techniques jaise yoga ya meditation istemal karein. Agar symptoms zyada serious hain ya lambi samay tak rehte hain, toh doctor se milne ka sochna chahiye.

I am an 18 year old female. I have been preparing for competitive exams for almost a year now. everything was going okay I used to feel a little sleepy while studying in the morning after 6 to 7 hours of sleep. But recently I have been sleeping 6 to 7 hours at night but feeling too tired all day especially when I am studying, I have my exam next month. I am unable to study I am trying so hard but I still feel so sleepy all day. I also missed my periods last month.
Female | 18
You are experiencing a lot of stress from exams. Feeling drained and missing periods could indicate stress-induced hormone imbalance. When stressed, your hormones get disrupted, causing fatigue and irregular menstruation. To manage this, rest adequately, maintain a nutritious diet, and consider counseling for stress-coping techniques. Remember to take study breaks periodically and prioritize self-care practices.

Your chest pain, which is more on the left side, may have several causes, such as stress, acid reflux, or not sleeping in the right position. Sometimes outside food can also cause health issues, such as weight gain. In order to manage weight, you must have a balanced diet and regular exercise. Lay off more processed and oily food. First and foremost, if the pain is increasing or there are other symptoms, it is better to meet with a doctor. Professional guidance will be the best for your health. Take care of your health!

Hii i had cough and cold 6 months back which lasted for around 2 months. Back then i noticed a swelling in the posterior part on the side of neck. Post antibiotics the swelling went down but still a small part remained. it is around less than 1/2 inch in size rubbery doesnt move and no pain or tenderness.
Female | 25
It could be that the swelling at the back of your neck is the enlargement of the lymph node due to your description. Lymph nodes may become enlarged due to an invasion by an infectious agent, including that persistent cough and cold you endured about 6 months ago. You should visit an ENT specialist who can do an additional examination and will advise you comprehensively on how to treat the swelling.

Hello, 2 months ago a drop of hiv infected person (not on medicine) saliva splashed into my eyes while talking and after 3 weeks i had mild cold symptoms for a few days. Am I infected with HIV? Cold stop pills made my symptoms better
Female | 33
The symptoms experienced could stem from various causes, not exclusively HIV. Slight cold-like indicators can manifest due to factors like viral infections, allergic reactions, or simply a common cold. The alleviation provided by the cold-stop medication is beneficial. Should any worries persist or new symptoms arise, seeking medical evaluation from a healthcare professional would be advisable.

If your eyes are burning, dry, or red, these could be signs of allergies, infection, or overuse. Before you try any treatment at home, do not forget to see a doctor to get the correct diagnosis. They can examine your condition and give you the right medication or prescribe eye drops. Keeping your eyes clean, reducing screen time, and getting enough sleep are also beneficial.

Hiv can live outside of body in 38°c environment temperature humidity 18 % in sunshine not sunlight. My concern because i got small cut during hair cutting at commercial barber Shop
Male | 19
You're right to ask about HIV risks. Such viruses can't stay alive very long outside bodies. The odds of getting HIV via tiny haircut cuts are super slim. Still, watch cuts closely to avoid infections. If you experience unexplained fever, aches, or rashes, see a doctor.

lice went into my ear and i know that since i have lice and my glasses have lice (probably) and I pulled my temple of the glasses like a slingshot and it hit my ear. I felt like lice on the temple were going at my ear and now i have an itching sensation in my ear. Will the lice just go away on its own or not. Please reply ASAP :(
Male | 14
Lice in the ear can cause serious infections and complications if left untreated. Talk to ENT specialist they will examine your ear and prescribe the appropriate treatment to get rid of the lice and prevent further complications. Do not try to remove the lice yourself as it may cause more harm

Diarrhea in infants is scary, especially each day gets longer than when it responds to medicine. It is relevant to contact a pediatrician as fast as possible.
