I will be participating in an athletic event and d organizers wants me to bring a medical result showing that i'm physically fit.. Which test should i go 4 and how much will it cost me?
This question should be given to the organizers and they will pass a list of tests you should run in for to ascertain if you fit for the event. Doing it on your own count to random doing and money wasting in trying to cover so much for relevance.
If you choose to do it randomly, the above test can prove your fit:
1) Blood sugar test
2) Blood cholesterol
3) Know your blood pressure.
4) thyroid function test
5) Urinalysis.
6)others

Consult an Exercise physiologist for further briefing.

Management :
1. No shaving of the Instruments for the now.
2. Allow aeration of the pubic zone
3. Application of warm compressor on the side of complaint and the boil.
4. Native method: Mix rub and potash( ekanwu) together. Apply mixture on the boil, it will sooth the pain over and cause it to ripe. Both in the morning and afternoon.
5) In the evening after using your bath, apply a Visita Plus cream once.
6) Follow as directed for 2-3 days.
7) Perform lanceting with a clean hand, a wool to clean up and during period of healing use a sitz bathing, or take a warm bath.

Yea
Are you the one affected?
Do you suffer drooling sometimes?
Do you have problem moving food from the corner of the mouth to the central oral cavity?
Do you have problem with facial expression?
Do you forget things easily and perhaps have a scratchy skin and then mouth sores either in the mouth or corner of it?
Does problem of yours started with dryness of the mouth before now?
Do you have problem making speech?
Do you find it difficult to roll your masticated meal in your mouth?
Do you vomit frequently or have a feel to?
Have you once suffered peptic ulcer disease and was it well treated?
Do you observe an early bitterness of your mouth in the morning?
Any case of constipation?
Do you use any medication, can I know medications you have so far been on since this started or before it started?

Please give answer to all questions.

If you say no to all these I don't think you have problem with excess salivation but problem with decrease clearance of saliva. This is usually common with those having inflammation with the Waldeyer's ring at the back of the oral groove- tonsillitis.
However, I am not suspecting a nerve failure anywhere though you have problem making speech it may have resulted due to the excess salivation but if it is not, then a doctor still needs to check up and examine the nerves that control the muscles of the tongue and essential for salivation reflex.
Besides, please see a doctor to carry out special check on your mouth and to the laboratory to have a check on your WBC. For the sake of the metallic taste, you also need to have a check up for excess copper in the blood.
For the now:
1.Reduce your intake of starch especially before going to bed.
2. Use good toothpaste and a mouthwash.
3. Eat pepper fruit( I don't know the common name but it's a small seed fruit)
4. Keep away from welding environment that could expose you to metallic fumes.
5. Have a regular use of Vitamin B3.
6. Some antibiotics may be of help in cases of infection but first check your WBC.
7. Drug such as Amitriptyline can be helpful . Meet doctor for prescription.

Dooh! Doooh!!

Don't worry about draining it, it will drain out itself.
Remain on the ampiclox;you can apply a warm compress to fasten healing.

Hi Doctor,

I recently started developing some eruptions on my skin. Some are big and painful like boils, some are pimple- like, painful sometimes itchy, with pus that bursts and dries and leave spots.

I have used anti-biotics, anti bacterial creams, ointments and more. I am presently taking local herbs made for me.

They keep coming out. On my neck, arms, laps, legs, back and tummy.

I dunno what else to do.

Doctors pls help.

I was exposed to a pesticide six months ago (dimeforce) and since then my health has been very unstable from pains in the body to suceptability to minor fever. Recently i have been having frequent headaches. The headache is really affecting me.

PS: I visited the hospital after the incident and doctors assured that such exposure will leave the system since its acute.


Blood test taken October 2018
CBC & differential
Peripheral blood smear
Clotting time
ESR

Results came out normal

If it itches you crazily and mostly at nights then it could be scabies. How about in-between your fingers and toes? Are the rashes there too?

It could be a normal allergic rhinoconjunctivitis. If this is normal it will subside with 7-10days, hopefully. The main interest here is to keep off from triggering factor and get to use PCM to regulate your feverish and headache. I am sure this is normal except there is more to it. Kindly watch for at least 7days and if the cough hasn't come down with eye redness mention me again or better still see a doctor.
