General Physician
Answered on 23rd May '24
It is more preferable to use bottled water that is low on minerals and has pH level between 7-8 rather than tap water. It would be advisable to have an appointment with a nephrologist for further guidance on renal failure management.

Male | 17
Prolonged fever, especially if it's around 102 to 104, is a signal to see a doctor. Situations of back pain can be generated by different conditions. Once in a while, there may be a reason that is not visible and requires more investigation. Get in touch with your doctor for a complete evaluation of your condition.

Hi, my daughter (18 yrs) noticed a nodule towards the back of her neck below her right ear, about 4 days back. It has since developed into a sore throat and productive cough. Please advise a suitable remedy. Thank you!
Female | 18
It could be a lymph node or a cyst, and a sore throat and cough could be unrelated or just the symptoms of a contraction. Please talk to a ENT doctor

Hi, I was prescribed azithromycin for an ear infection I had and took 500 MG on day one and then 250 MG per day for the next 4 days. If I were to also have chlamydia, would this dosage cure that as well?
Male | 22
Azithromycin belongs to the antibiotic category, is one of the drugs most frequently applied against various kinds of bacterial infections including chlamydia. But the amount and length of treatment may be different for each person and based on the severity of the illness and the individual factors. You should see a doctor to get yourself diagnosed and treated in the right way.

My father got viral infection last month and lost 8 kgs weight...fever lasted for only 3 days and then after leg pain and swelling happened ...and suffered from constipation so dctr gave milk of magnesia to cure constipation...now constipation got relieved...is weight loss okay or we need to check with dct?
Male | 54
It's good that your father's constipation is better now. However, losing weight after a viral infection is expected as the body manages to defend against the infection. Mucous membrane pain and swelling might be due to the inflammation response of the body to the virus. Since the constipation is better and the fever is gone, it's okay. If the weight loss persists or if any new symptoms develop, see your doctor.

Having trouble breathing may hint so many medical conditions. It is recommended that you consult a doctor if it is known that respiratory problems or heart disease is present.

Good morning my name is Cheran Briel I have a problem with my sister she is 51 years old and a diabetic the last three months she moans and talks in her sleep she lies a lot but that comes a long way she sleeps a lot during the day she doesn't work but she remembers thing just small things she forgets like where she puts things but what worries me the most is that she falls out of bed constantly or twice a week and she doesn't remember what she does what's wrong with her can you help me
Female | 51
From the symptoms you have given, it is likely that your sister’s sleep disorders arises from her diabetes complication. I suggest that you see a sleep expert and get her tested to determine the kind of treatment needed. In terms of her falls, it is necessary to consider a neurologist in order not to miss any underlying issue with the nervous system. Make sure you consult your doctor every time an issue pertaining to health arises.

Female | 20
If you experienced body weakness and your last period was on the 20th – 23rd of September, while pregnancy tests were negative then maybe it speaks about another condition. A thorough checkup and diagnosis should be undertaken by a gynecologist. They will identify the source of your symptoms and offer treatment.

Hi I am suffering from fever last 02 days like 100 & 102 & normal neck pain in mouth.. So what can I do ?
Male | 37
Your symptoms indicate a viral infection. Fevers between 100-102°F accompanied by neck pain often signal the flu or a cold. Resting, staying hydrated, and using over-the-counter fever reducers like acetaminophen can provide relief. However, worsening or persistent symptoms warrant medical consultation. Don't hesitate to seek professional advice if needed.

I'm 22 yrs old female and I've had this brown spot under my tongue, and now i see similar spots over the side of my tongue. I'm confused as to what they're. And recently I've been to dentists too, for tooth extraction and filling. But none of them suggested anything. Like if those spots were danger to me or not. I've been an active smoker and recently am trying to quit it. I'd really like to know if those brown spots are dangerous for me.

Hi doc.. can u get HIV through blood draw if the new syringe ( needle + syringe set packed) if someone poke through a infected needle with hiv blood?
Male | 36
Getting HIV from blood drawn with new needles is really hard. HIV doesn't last long outside bodies. If you poked yourself with used HIV blood needles, there's a risk though. HIV symptoms are like flu: very tired, swollen glands. So always use fresh needles and syringes!

For personalized advice on managing uric acid levels and your diet, consult a professional or a registered dietitian. Some sprouts like barley can be beneficial, but it's essential to consume them in moderation. Regarding apple cider vinegar, evidence is limited, and it's best to seek professional guidance for your specific health condition.
