How can I stop eating dry walls?

People might consume drywall due to underlying problems such as nutritional deficiencies and a condition called pica, during which one eats non-food items. Healthcare providers are the best people to consult if any health issue occurs. You can help this habit by eating healthy snacks like fruits and veggies rather than junk food.

What should I do for my husband's high fever?

If someone has had a high fever since Sunday night, even after taking Dolo 650, it’s a good idea to get it checked. High fevers are usually linked to viral infections like the flu or bacterial infections. Make sure he stays hydrated and give him a lukewarm sponge bath. It's important to consult a general physician to rule out any serious conditions.

Should I Worry about Delayed Tetanus Shot?

Tetanus can take place if bacteria invade the injured area. Even if you took it a bit late, it's not too late to fix that. Symptoms such as muscle stiffness and spasms may show up. Don't forget to look for this. Now that you've got the vaccination, you're safe. Keep an eye on your wound and if you notice something strange or feel sick, it's a good idea to call your doctor.

Took 50 vitamin C, zinc pills, am I safe?

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.

Can I Take 1165mg Paracetamol + Caffeine Together?

Fever can be a sign that your body is fighting off an infection like a cold or flu. Taking paracetamol with caffeine can help to bring down the fever and reduce the discomfort. It's okay to consume 1165mg of paracetamol accompanied by 50mg of caffeine, twice a day. Do not go beyond this dosage. Take a rest, drink ample fluids, and check your temperature regularly. If your fever goes on or gets worse, call for medical help.

Why still having chikungunya symptoms and missed period?

The cause of these symptoms is stress on the body, and consequently, the missed period. This occurs since your body is still on its way to getting back to normal.  You should obviously take care of your health, eat right, drink enough water, and sleep enough. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it's important to seek medical advice.

Can I treat infected IV sores at home?

Your husband's arm is in a bad state. The open sores and swelling could be a sign of an infection. If he's also experiencing headaches, things could get worse. Infections can be spread quickly! At home, you can help by cleaning the sores gently with warm water and soap, then covering them with band-aids. But he should see a doctor as soon as possible because infections can be dangerous.

Can I treat 100° fever with meds?

A mild headache and a high fever of 100°F can indicate a cold or the flu, which are caused by viruses. I suggest you take acetaminophen to reduce the fever and the headache. Furthermore, it is important not only to rest but also to drink sufficient amounts of fluids and eat light and nutritious foods. Keep in mind that if your conditions worsen, visit a doctor.

Can I use Cofryl syrup for high blood pressure?

Coughs and colds are annoying, especially with high blood pressure. Cofryl syrup is not a good choice since it has some ingredients that might raise your blood pressure. To relieve your cough, you can try warm drinks and rest. But if your cold becomes worse or does not go away, it is better to see a doctor.

Why Do I Have Sore Throat After Unprotected Sex?

The symptoms you mentioned such as a sore throat, headache, and swollen glands can be signs of many things, not just HIV. It’s great that you took the test and even better that it came back negative. These signs are sometimes caused by an attack of virus or bacteria. It would be best if you went to see a doctor or other healthcare provider who will give you a proper diagnosis and prescribe medication for treatment.
