000005300 | Dear Patient, It sounds like you may have stomach infection. Is there any history of eating out or eating possible bad food in recent past? If yes, then I can say little more surely that you may have stomach infection. You have taken antibiotics for UTI about a month ago, so they might not be able to cover you for the recent infection. Do you have fever? Headache may be associated with fever. Also, stomach infections are very notorious for being associated with headaches. So I would not advise you to take headache as a different malady. When the stomach infection will resolve, headache will disappear automatically. I do not know what medicines you took for UTI, but I would suggest taking Norfolk 400 mg 2 times a day for 5 days. If the symptoms are not resolved, you might need to go for a complete blood test (CBC). Avoid this medicine if you are allergic to fluoroquinolones group of medicines. Furthermore, avoid eating out for a while and take diet that is easy for you to digest. I hope this helps. Wishing you good health. Take care. Thank you for choosing us to help you. Best regards, | |

000005343 | Hi...frequent fevers are common in this age group and in this season. Mostly they were viral illnesses. I will explain to you how a viral illness behaves so that you can be more confident. Fever of few days without any localizing signs could as well a viral illness. Usually rather than fever, what is more important is the activity of the child, in between 2 fever episodes on the same day. If the kid is active and playing around when there is no fever, it is probably viral illness and it doesn't require antibiotics at all. Once viral fever comes it will there for 4-7 days. So do not worry about duration if the kid is active. Paracetamol can be given in the dose of 15\u00a0mg/kg/dose (maximum ceiling dose of 500\u00a0mg) every 4-6th hourly that too only if fever is more than 100F. I suggest not using combination medicines for fever, especially with Paracetamol. Regards - | |

000005348 | Hello, and I hope I can help you today. Removal of the copper IUD makes you immediately able to conceive, as the IUD does not affect your hormones in any way. So if you have been having unprotected sex and your period is late, you are at risk for pregnancy. Your cycle should also not be affected by removal of the coil, so it should not affect your cycle. However, if you are deliberately trying to become pregnant or are worried about pregnancy, the stress from worrying about it may actually delay your cycle further. So I recommend performing a urine pregnancy test and if it is negative, retest in one week if your period does not come by then. If you continue to have irregular cycles, and do not conceive, you may want to see your GUN doctor back for a hormonal evaluation. I hope I was able to answer your question adequately today, and that my advice was helpful. Best wishes, | |

000005352 | Hi there,Septal (Carbamazepine) and Cloaked (Benzodiazepine) are given for epilepsy control. And the fact that you are taking two Chat Doctor. Could you tell me more about when was your last epileptic seizure ? And when did you last visit a neurologist. Epilepsy itself poses a risk to pregnancy and discontinuation of the medications is not advisable as it can cause the seizures to recur and this could harm both you and your baby. I would strongly recommend you to take Folic acid 5 mg from today itself. Also get your obstetrician to see you immediately and get an ultrasound done to see if the exact weeks of pregnancy. You will need to follow up with your neurologist to taper the dose of the medications depending on how well your epilepsy is controlled. Epilepsy and medications used to treat it both are known to defects in the unborn baby. The risk would depend on a lot of factors, but is usually less than 5 %. Taking folic acid before getting pregnant and during pregnancy can decrease the risk to a certain extent. Regular ultrasound and first trimester screening will be required to see for the proper development of the baby. Hope this helps. Regards. | |

Try to eat easier food and avoid alcohol and smoking.Also, it is not recommended to eat 2 hours before and after exercise. Wish you good health. | |

000005373 | Hi, Thanks for writing in. The discs at levels L 3 - L 4, L 4 - L 5 and L 5 - S 1 show probable age related disc degenerative change with a bony spur at L 5 regions. The nerve roots at L 5 level is getting pinched and therefore the pain. This is mainly sued to the degenerative discs at that level causing pressure on the nerves on possibly the left side along the foramen though which they pass. Initially physiotherapy, avoiding excessive physical activities and taking over the counter painkillers help. If you do not get sufficient pain relief then taking neurogenic pain relievers and opioid medications might be required and these are prescription medications. If pain persists with more than a year even with adequate medications then the pinched nerve must be released with small surgical procedures. Laser assisted techniques are also available in some hospitals and clinics. | |

000005381 | Hi there Julia First, dermatology is a visual field & as such would greatly appreciate a clear digital photograph of the lesion uploaded on this website using the upload data icon.

000005382 | Hi Shaka, Welcome to Chat Doctor, and thanks for your question... Hearing non-existent noises / voices (in medical terms known as hallucinations) is indicative of psychosis, which is a particular type of psychiatric disorder. The current combination of medication which he is taking, already has an anti-psychotic medication i.e. Tribune S (Trifluoperazine). In addition, he is also on a mood-stabilizing medication i.e. Divalproex. Though you have mentioned the diagnosis as depression, he is not on any anti-depressant medication currently. But remember, the word depression can often be used in a non-specific manner by many people, and I'm guessing that he may actually be suffering from a psychotic disorder.PIVOTAL (I presume, not Reversal) is a sedative medication and is used for sleep disturbances and sometimes, to calm down the patient. My opinion is that if he is having psychotic symptoms, it is advisable to treat that specifically (probably by increasing the anti-psychotic medication), rather than merely keep giving him a sedative. Of course, this has to be done only on consultation with a psychiatrist. I would suggest that if you are able to contact him over phone or see his colleague for a quick review, that would be a better idea. All the best.- | |

000005392 | Hi, As such acid reflux doesn't happen because of nerve damage, it happens because a sphincter between your stomach and esophagus isn't functioning properly which is causing acid from your stomach to reach your esophagus. It is this which causes the burning and pain sensation that you have. I believe the reason your doctor ordered an echocardiogram was because he/she wanted to rule out any chances of the heart being involved. I am sure you're doctor has prescribed you with a proton pump inhibitor like omeprazole as well given you advice on other lifestyle changes that will help you. So rest assured, the acid reflux is not because of any nerve problems. I hope this helped answer your question. | |

You are prescribed amoxicillin capsules may be for urinary tract infection(UTI). It does not cause any harm to the baby. And yes you can have intercourse with your husband. Usually intercourse is best avoided during the first 3 months and in last months of pregnancy. I just want to say a few things regarding UTI.UTI is the most common infection seen in pregnancy. It should be treated because untreated UTI cause irritation of uterus leading to preterm pains. And taking adequate fluids up to 3 liters per day prevent UTI. So I suggest you to take adequate fluids and also rule out any high BP. As such nothing to worry. Hope this helps. Best regards... | |
