If a rat bites you, watch out for further developments regarding your muscular dystrophy. If the signs of inflammation of your hand appear such as redness, swelling, warmth, or pus you may require antibiotics which will need to be prescribed by a doctor. Act fast, to avoid complications. Do not be afraid to contact your doctor for any additional instructions.

Female | 45
A mishap occurred with your elbow last night. If bleeding, red blood emerges. Cuts or scrapes. To halt it, apply pressure using a clean cloth. However, if bleeding persists severely, seeking medical aid is wise.

In December 2021 I had accidentally caught my finger in a window and had rushed to the doctors then I had gotten a K wire surgery as i had a dislocated bone on my finger . the bandage was on my finger for about 4 weeks then it was open then after a while in the middle of 2022 I noticed some pus coming from it I ignored it for a while then in 2023 I went to a doctor in india and her gave me a tube to put in that area so did the doctor in dubai but the thing is that even if i put regularly I don't see any changes please recommend me something
Female | 13
From the symptoms you have shared it seems that you are suffering from an infection in your finger after the K wire operation. It is of utmost necessity to have a consultation with an orthopedist surgeon at the earliest. They will be able to evaluate your finger and suggest a cure for the disease, which can take the forms of antibiotics or surgery, if required.

In thyroid disorders, swelling or enlargement of the thyroid gland, known as a goiter, can occur, but it is not always present. If your mother's doctor has advices that her thyroid problem is in the early stages and not a cause for worry, It is best to continue with the prescribed treatment and follow up for monitoring

It is hard to figure out the reason of your symptoms without a physical exam and medical history review. But the chance of you having a viral infection such as a flu, which may cause you to have fatigue, constipation and body pain, cannot be ruled out. I suggest that you approach a specialist for further examination and for treatment purpose.

What should i do if i drink water and still feel dehydrated
Female | 27
Feeling thirsty even after drinking water? This might be due to lingering dehydration. Your body needs enough fluids to function well. Signs include dry mouth, tiredness, and dark urine. If you're still thirsty, try drinking electrolyte beverages or eating juicy fruits and veggies to stay hydrated. Also, cut back on caffeine and alcohol, as they can dehydrate you.

Female | 38
A fever of 101 and body pains are bad. It is good you took Arachitol 6 L Injection for vitamin D lack. You can take Crocin 12 hr after that for fever and body pains since they work in different ways. But be sure to take the right amount of each drug. Rest a lot, drink lots of water, and you will feel better soon.

Is sugar level 106.24 H is valid for medical test ?
Male | 22
The term "106.24 H" is not a standard unit of measurement for blood sugar levels. Blood sugar levels are typically measured in milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) or millimoles per liter (mmol/L).
If the value you mentioned, 106.24 H, is in mg/dL or mmol/L, it would be helpful to know the reference range or normal range provided by the specific laboratory or healthcare institution conducting the test.

You shouldn't take medicine without any proper prescription and guidance from the health care provider. Pioz 15 is a drug that treats diabetes and taking it without being diabetic may cause harm to your body. It would be in your best interest to consult an endocrinologist for appropriate assessment and direction.

The doctor prescribed me a medicine (megapin) of 500mg but the megapin I got has a label 250/250 mg does that mean the medicine is total 500mg?
Male | 60
When medicine labels show 250/250 mg, it means there are two ingredients, each with 250 mg. One tablet contains 500 mg (250 + 250 = 500 mg). You're getting the correct dose your doctor prescribed. Follow the instructions for how many tablets to take.

My mother is an asthama patient, she got mild fever and body pain so I have given her ibrufen 200 mg ,if there is any contradiction then what to do. Can I give her Montamac tablet and her Formanide pump
Female | 56
Fever and body pain can be caused by different things, and giving ibuprofen is usually a sensible thing to do. On the other, ibuprofen is not the best choice for asthma patients because it can sometimes make things worse. You can also try giving Montamac tablets for the fever and body pain as an alternative to ibuprofen. The use of her Formanide pump, which medical professionals have prescribed for her asthma, must be strictly observed. The same is true if the symptoms worsen, it is necessary to see a doctor.
