My Ceftriaxone Injection Site Swelling - What Next?
What to do after injection of ceftriaxone wrongly and the part injected is increasing in size
General Physician
Answered on 23rd May '24
This issue can arise when the medicine unintentionally enters surrounding tissues instead of muscle. Apply a warm, damp cloth to the affected region - this should help ease discomfort and reduce swelling somewhat. Keep the area clean, and watch closely for potential signs of infection like redness, excessive warmth, or pus formation. However, if symptoms intensify or you start feeling ill overall, it's crucial to promptly seek professional medical evaluation.

Male | 17
The person concerned might be manifesting a symptom of a past illness. Swollen pharynx and epiglottis may indicate an underlying infection that demands medical care. I recommend that he/she should instantly see an ENT specialist for advice.

Im 5 feet 7 inch tall and i want to gain at least 4 inchs is it possible
Male | 25
Gaining 4 inches in height after reaching adulthood is highly unlikely and practically impossible through natural means.. While there are surgical procedures like Limb lengthening that can increase height artificially, they are highly invasive, expensive, and carry significant risks, making them an unsuitable option for most people. Moreover, 4 inches of heught increase cannot be gauranteed.

My friend age is 32 due to some issues he ate 10 table spoons of salt before 30 mins now he is not responding the calls is there any problem with that
Male | 32
This can lead to a condition known as salt poisoning. Signs may include extreme thirst, vomiting, weakness, and confusion. When your friend does not answer calls, it is a severe symptom. The brain and body could be affected. Please seek immediate medical attention. This is an emergency that may be fatal.

I'm 27 years male....I still didn't have beard and hair growth on my body....how to recover from this
Male | 27
Hormonal imbalances or underlying medical conditions can be the reason for less beard hair growth. Avoid stress, maintain a healthy lifestyle, and be patient as hair growth can vary. For concerns related to a lack of facial and body hair growth and potential hormonal imbalances you should consider consulting an endocrinologist

I have problem lose of sense of smell, form lost one month, but I'm not haing fever little bit cold and cough why my smell sense is lost
Male | 59
Sometimes when we catch a cold, it blocks our nose, and we lose our sense of smell. This is called "anosmia." Don’t worry—your sense of smell should return as you recover. Be patient, drink plenty of fluids, and get enough rest.

No history of diabetes, blood pressure or heart problems. Had chills then a fever for 2 days (once a day). Took azithromycin for 3 days. On the third day results showing C-reactive protein 193.07?
Male | 83
Your symptoms point to an infection. Elevated C-reactive protein usually signals your body combating one. Since you've taken azithromycin, keep drinking fluids, resting, and complete the antibiotics. However, if the fever persists or new issues arise, promptly see a doctor.

I got a kitten a few days ago and she bit me pretty hard on my middle finger and it cause my thumb, pointer and middle finger to tingle for a little while afterwards. I am now feeling ill and unsure if it has to do with the bite or not so I'm just trying to see if I need to go get antibiotics or some testing/ shots done. She is unvaccinated and 11 weeks old.
Female | 30
You should consult with your doctor tomorrow because cat bites may cause infections if left untreated. Cat bite infections are secondary to bacteria found in the cat’s mouth. I suggest consulting an infectious disease specialist.

After exercise if vertigo improved but you still feel dizzy, it's possible the inner ear crystals have not fully returned to their proper position. You may consider repeating the exercises as directed.

Considering your symptoms, you could have a viral infection causing your sore throat and dry cough. But when, after taking the meds, you vomit, you doubt it and stop taking the medicine. You should consult an ENT specialist to start the treatment.

Hi this is habib I have headache due to ac what can I do
Male | 40
Spending too much time in a cold place can trigger a headache in certain people. The reason is that the cold air can narrow the blood vessels in your brain making you uneasy and uncomfortable. Take a break from the cold, have some water, and put a warm cloth on your forehead to get relief.

I had a situation that was probably a panic attack but it was similar to a heart attack and I already have hypertension so I'm really worried. I want to figure out whether it was a panic attack or should I go to the ER.
Male | 20
It is important to consult your doctor immediately if you suffer symptoms like heart attack even if you are a hypertension patient. It could be a panic attack, but why take a chance and ignore any heart-related conditions that might be ruled out. Please see a cardiologist for detailed diagnosis and advice.
