Is my mother's fever a concern post-ascites recovery?

My mother 59 who has been recovering from ascites over the past two years, has been experiencing a fever recently. Given her liver's ongoing weakness, I wanted to seek your advice on the next steps. Should we be concerned, and would you recommend any immediate tests or treatment? Thank you for your guidance.

Fever in someone with a history of ascites can indicate an underlying issue that should not be overlooked. It may be a sign of infection or other complications related to liver function. I recommend monitoring her symptoms closely, such as fatigue or abdominal pain and consult a gastroenterologist. They may suggest blood tests, imaging, or other evaluations to determine the cause.

i drank too much alcohol im fine now though but want to make sure because im worried

Male | 21

After ingesting a large quantity of alcohol, it is fundamental to introspect about your body. Are you feeling better now? That's good! Most of the time, common symptoms of drinking too much include headache, nausea, and feeling tired. Heavy drinking can lead to damage to the liver and brain. For the sake of the body's recovery, water should be maintained high, healthy foods have to be eaten, and some rest should be taken.

I have been having discomfort in my right lower abdomen for 3 weeks. When it started, I woke up with abdominal pain and went to breakfast, but during it I could barely keep from throwing up. All that day I felt a little nauseous and my stomach hurt on sudden movements (also my stomach made noises). The next day the pain became more constant and intensified. I could not straighten up without pain in my lower abdomen. That day I went to the doctor with a suspicion of appendicitis. I was palpated, but was told that it was not clear exactly and told to come back the next day. The next day the pain was less, the doctor palpated me again and I had an ultrasound. The ultrasound showed that I had an enlarged kidney bowl and lymph nodes. I was admitted to the hospital but did not know which department (first they wanted to put me in urology but in the end they put me in the infectious diseases department for some reason). Also, the blood tests when I first came to the hospital had elevated white blood cells. I was discharged after 2 days and have been home for 3 weeks now (I have been on a diet and drinking 1.5 litres of water a day not counting tea) but the discomfort in my right lower abdomen sometimes returns

So after having dinner i suddenly felt vomiting so while vomiting there was little blood what to do

Female | 24

As soon as you can, go to a gastroenterologist. The symptom of hematemesis – vomiting blood is a serious sign that must not be overlooked. It may refer to various diseases, including gastric ulcers, inflammation of the stomach lining or even cancer. Only an expert can identify the underlying condition.

Im a syphillis pateint and i want to remove my gallbladder stone. Is that surgery is safe for me

Female | 39

Syphilis is a sexual illne­ss that spreads through contact. It causes sores, and rashe­s if untreated. Antibiotics cure it though. Gallbladde­r stones develop in that organ, causing pain. Surge­ry removes the stone­s safely, easing your troubles. But me­ntion syphilis treatment before­ the surgery. That way, both issues ge­t handled properly.

after drinking the alchocol with the beer i got vomit the little blood what is the reason

Male | 22

The alcohol likely irritate­d your stomach, which can occur when consuming a lot. Throwing up blood might indicate a blee­ding stomach ulcer. Look out for stomach pain, dizziness, and fee­ling faint. It's important to stay hydrated and avoid alcohol until you're fee­ling better. If it persists, se­ek medical attention right away.

I am 59 year old male having symptoms such as : acidity , throat burn , abdominal pain , gas for past 2 months .

Male | 59

These are the symptoms of acid reflux such as acidity, throat burn, abdominal pain, and gas. It occurs when the acid in your stomach moves back up to your throat. To help with this, you can eat smaller meals, avoid spicy foods, and don't lie down right after eating. Drinking a lot of water may be beneficial too.

i am suffer from piles problem for last 1 year, now suggest me what can i do?

Male | 46

Hemorrhoids cause­ veins near your anus to swell. This make­s sitting painful. It can also cause bleeding whe­n you use the bathroom. Try simple things first. Eat foods with lots of fibe­r, like fruits and veggies. Drink ple­nty of water too. Creams from the pharmacy may offe­r relief. But we'll look at othe­r treatments if problems continue­.
