What should I do for my vomiting gran with headache?

My gran is a 64 year old female. She started vomiting over 6 hours ago. She can’t eat or hold anything down. She’s also complaining of a headache and pain on her right side. What can we do to help? She is on insulin and hypertension medication

Vomiting, headaches, and pain on her right side can mean she has pancreatitis, which is very serious. Take her to the hospital now. They’ll be able to find out what’s wrong and make her feel better. Also, bring along her insulin and any medicine she takes for high blood pressure.

I am 24 years old , female , weight around 49 kg , height 5'2" . Past three days I am extremely experiencing loss of appetite, I suffered through runny nose then blockage of nose after which I spit mucus through my throat and for which I always feel like I am going to vomit also not feeling at all to eat anything which in turn making me more tired and fatigued by the end of the day . What I should do to increase my appetite or so that some interest I would get to eat something.

Female | 24

A common cold can make you lose your appetite. Typical cold symptoms include a runny or blocked nose, mucus in your throat, and nausea. To improve your appetite, drink plenty of fluids, stay hydrated, and eat light, easy-to-digest foods like soups, fruits, and yogurt. Give yourself time to recover and rest. If your symptoms don't improve or get worse, contact your doctor for further advice.

She is 2years 7months old baby. She is facing constipation problem (3days / 2days once) the stole also very hard while coming out. She is very struggling because of it. Am giving spinach weekly thrice and giving vegetables daily in her meal. Apple everyday. She is not comfortable in chewing it and taking lot of time so am offering her in smoothy form.

Female | 2

Constipation means less number of bowel movements or finding of it difficult to do so. This can happen due to the lack of fiber and water in the diet. You did a good job with spinach, veggies, and apple. You can also try giving her more water and whole grains along with her meals.

I am 48 years old and for the last 4/5 months am having stomach bloating all the time after taking any food

Male | 48

You might be having a dyspepsia, which is a disorder that often affects the upper part of your digestive system. Symptoms may range from bloating, gas, and nausea to abdominal pain and discontent. I suggest you go to a gastroenterologist to get the right diagnosis and treatment.

Di I have to eat anything after taking a reglan pill

Female | 67

Reglan can be taken with or without food. It helps relieve nausea and digestive discomfort by improving your digestive system's function. After taking it, you may feel less hungry temporarily if your symptoms improve.

no, for now, I want to test the toilet because when I go to defecate, I collect dirty things like yellow phlegm. Now I don't know what the problem is and I also have diarrhea

Male | 34

It seems that you have the stomach flu. The yellow phlegm might be a result of the mucus from your stomach coming up while you are straining to pass stool. Also, diarrhea can be caused by a stomach bug. Staying hydrated is what you need to do by drinking plenty of water. Keep eating bland food until your body gets better like rice and toast. Rest and let your body have the time to heal. If symptoms do not resolve, go for medical assistance.

When saftypin stay in my stomch since 2 years what's happened

Male | 22

Carrying a safety pin in your stomach for 2 long years can result in dangerous situations. You may get a tummy ache, feel like you are going to throw up, or actually, throw up. The pin can cause a tear in the lining of your stomach and be the reason for the infection. It is important to have it done through surgery. If the pin stays there it can cause other problems. A doctor must be seen immediately to get help.

I got ulcers on chewing pan masala

Male | 22

It looks as if you are feeling uncomfortable because of an inflammation of your mouth, which may be due to sores, pain, or sensitivity. The most common of these are a result of the consumption of substances like chewing tobacco. The best thing to do is to clean your teeth using a good dental floss, do not use spicy or acidic foods.

Female | 22

The fever and bitter tongue suggest that your condition has worsened. I recommend that you consult a gastroenterologist soon for thorough assessment and management.

Male | 45

It sounds like you're dealing with a lot of pain and discomfort . . Have you talked to your doctor about alternative treatments? It's good that your blood work looks NORMAL, but it's still important to keep monitoring your symptoms. Have you tried any lifestyle changes, such as changing your DIET or reducing STRESS? It's important to keep seeking medical advice and exploring all options available to you. . . . .

morning azithromycin 500 mg and night flagyl 400 can take

Male | 44

You're probably going through an infection. Your doctor is probably targeting different kinds of bacteria using azithromycin 500 mg in the morning and Flagyl 400 mg at night. Do not stop taking the medications even if you start feeling better. Prolong the treatment to ensure complete eradication of the infection. If you have any concerns or notice any unusual side effects, it's important to let your doctor know.
