Very well noted sir can granulated sugar be used in place of the cube.. any die off symptom to be expected while on this?.. should another stool test be carried out after completing treatment?.. thank you
Of course granulated form is allow but then stay with the form I want it done. There is a reason for it.

Yes! Expect that the frequency to using the toilet will reduce gradually but not abruptly in an excessively stooling condition.

A week after both treatment on the mixture and Mebendazole check for the worm larvae on stool examination.

PLEASE DON'T OVERZEALOUSLY TREAT, IF THIS IS NOT WORKING POST IT HERE AGAIN.

DON'T USE FOR AN HYPERTENSIVE PATIENT.

Hi Doc, my neighbor's kid suffers from stuffy nose most times, like blocked nose which affects his breathing especially at night. The mucus he brings out is much and his mum says sometimes at night he coughs also when their car window is wound up and AC is on he starts to cough. What's the likely cause? she says most times it's the normal vicks inhaler she has been using for him and it's working

He's 10. Sorry this is a bit late, I had to call the mother to get this information. His eyes itches a lot, his body itches only if he wears dirty clothes or sleeps on dirty beddings and it produces rashes. She said he didn't have asthma before, it's been about 2 years on and off, most of the trouble occurs where there's exposure to cold or dust.

A sperm is the male sex cell. It does not smell. However, what you interested in to know is the fluid that feeds and float these sex cells-Semen.
How does your semen smell?
Why are you not interested also in color and texture feels?

Hello Doc, what can be done to treat depression? 2. How does one tackle infertility of 3 years.

Hello Doc, what can be done to treat depression?
2. How does one tackle infertility of 3 years.

Your first question is too general and less specific as the cause to clinical depression is more than enough a scope to digest here. This will not help you to find help in your present state of emptiness. Rather if I were you, I would distinctly open up everything on how I think, feel and suggest that may be wrong with me or something around not just right causing me to think the way I am. By so doing, I (the doctor) would see the need first to attend to that presenting complaint and then garnered into you the confidence to learn more about yourself and why the situation you find yourself is causing you to suffer a lowdown mental euphoria. If this were followed, you shall have learned enough to save yourself and others but to really take one day off to write on the treatment to Depression is what no Doctor will do due to the complexity,ambiguity and textual expansion to the required quest.

This is also general but specific only to the years of being infertile.
Madam, how do you want me to help you? Is it that you want to learn about ways to manage infertility cases?
You weren't even specific to what sex you're pointing this question on.
Are you expecting me to assume you are a female or male?
What is the problem? Open up!

What were you expecting?
Normal Urine left not flushed for sometime can be degraded by microbes and liberate badly smelled effervescence let alone when a urine collect a soluble drug metabolite. The urine containing this condense may show changes either to color or odor. This is normal. As the drug is cleared from the system, you urine will be coming up normal.
Regarding the later complaint, it is not due to the drug as it could be individual due to the body response. Nevertheless, you will be okay.

Before thinking of doing herbal or Orthodox, what other diagnoses have you guys done so as to appreciate a better way to manage him well in the state he his now?

Thank you doctor. Is this the reason why his eyes itches when he goes into certain environment? even he already suffers from skin problem, thank you sir. What drugs can he be given and how can he be better managed, I hope he can be cured?
Yes! These are resulting from exaggeration of a normal response to an environment stimuli.
Can he be better managed?
Yes!
Can he be cured?
It is a case of hypersensitivity, It is a constitutional part of his being. I think he may do so far well with management rather than seeking a cure.

MANAGEMENT:

1. The mother should take records of all the symptoms exhibited during suffering the hypersensitivity reaction. She should as well take records of all the illnesses the child has had before now.

2. The mother should learn about common local hypersensitivity conditions like Hives or Urticaria, Asthma and Allergic Conjunctivitis and the local way to give support to children in these situations.

3. Have the child registered to a paediatric clinic or hospital. Requesting the number of the consultant may be necessary for purposes regarding severity as he grows or other health condition coming with it.

4. The mother should have the child educated of what he is having, educate the child of cleanliness and respect for himself. The mother should maintain a lifestyle that should portray what she teaches. For example, if she teaches the child to avoid smoking fumes from cigarette, she herself should not smoke too.

5. The environment/substances/others factors should by all means stayed away from to avoid triggers:

Perfumes
Flowers
Extremes of temperature (example Cold)
Dusty environment
Extreme exercise
Fumes of any kind
Insects
Insecticides
Feather of birds
Bird's environment

6. The mother should have in keep the following module of management:

Decongestant
Nasal spray

NOTE: These will prevent serious complications, frequency to booking clinical appointments and hence save cost of management.

7. Drug of management should be kept from the child so as to avoid the child abusing it.

8. The drug of management should be at a spot every person in the household have easy access to. So that in t absence of mother the father can support or any of his siblings.

9 DRUGS:

These should be prescribed by a well trained medical doctor or a Paeditrician. Mainstream drug to manage such conditions:

Antihistamines.

However, depending on the issue on presentations the doctor or the Pediatrician may incline to giving other forms of management not written before now. Please the parents of the child should always seek newer and preferential way to help their child.

How many times have you suffered recurrence?
How frequent are the recurrences?
Why would your doctor suggest a tonsil removal without even a throat swab done?
