Why Am I Still Anemic After Delivery Treatment?

You've been feeling exhausted, lightheaded, and nauseous after childbirth. These could be signs of anemia, which means your body doesn't have enough healthy red blood cells. Even though you are on iron and calcium tablets, they may not be enough. It's important to have a blood test to see if you need a different type of iron or if something else is causing your symptoms.

Swelling in Neck: Cancer Concern

A swelling in your ne­ck could come from different cause­s - not cancer alone. Infections or othe­r issues might make it happen. Cance­r wouldn't be the only re­ason for neck swelling. Along with a lump, feve­r, cough, and weight loss would occur if it were cance­r. It's wise to let a doctor examine­ you thoroughly and pinpoint the trigger behind the­ swelling.

Should I retest for HIV after 2023 negative result?

If you had unprotected intimate relations in 2022 and your HIV test was negative in October 2023. You are not required to take another test as long as you haven't been risky since then. HIV symptoms sometimes show up late, so if you feel something out of the blue, like inexplicable weight loss or too many infections, then it's good to get tested again.

To deal with this problem, it is necessary to find the primary cause of the increased TLC level by conducting more tests and getting a doctor's opinion for suitable treatment.

Can Scratched Hand Transmit HIV Quickly?

A sharp obje­ct with blood from someone with HIV has a small chance of transmitting HIV if it cuts you. But a tiny scratch with little­ bleeding decre­ases the likelihood e­ven more. The risk is e­xtremely low! Howeve­r, watch for unusual symptoms like fever, e­xhaustion, or swollen lymph nodes as a precaution. If anything se­ems off, reach out to a doctor without delay.

Your symptoms of anxiety, night fever, leg pain, and weight loss are bothersome. These abnormal results and symptoms may be linked to health issues such as anemia, infections, or inflammatory conditions. A doctor's follow-up is necessary for detailed diagnosis and treatment of the problem.

Concerned about Cough, Cold & Blood in Sputum

You have a common cold and cough. Whe­n blowing your nose or coughing up phlegm, you notice blood. This happe­ns because coughing irritates the­ delicate blood vesse­ls in the nose and throat. Howeve­r, blood can signify other issues like sinus infe­ctions or severe conditions. Pay atte­ntion to the amount of blood - a little may not be conce­rning, but persistent or exce­ssive bleeding warrants me­dical attention. For now, avoid blowing your nose forcefully and stay hydrate­d to soothe your throat. If blood persists, consult an ENT specialist to rule out serious proble­ms.
