I'm guessing that you are simply lacking your old stamina. Heavy breathing causes pain under the diaphragm, and this seems to be what you described. Pains in your ankles can be explaned by the srain from the jogging.

However, to be sure, check with your doctor to rule-out a possible heart condition - I'm taking caution of the sometimes "so severe" chest pains you mentioned.

Thanks for the swift reply. I'll check with my dokita sometimes.

In the meanwhile, I'll try to increase my intake of calcium and iron.

Hello Doctors thanks for the swift response to everyone on this thread, Tetracicline 500MG every6 hours, was prescribed to me here, I went to the pharmacy and was given TIVASICLINE 250MG , can i take 1 tablet every 6hours also or do i take 2 since its 250MB NOT 500MB

No, don't take this other drug. Rather get my prescription - which so happens to be rather very commonly available.

My guess is you have Taenia Cruris.

Use Clotrimazole Cream generously applied over the rash after taking a bath and towel-drying, twice daily for 4 weeks 2) Tablet Griseofulvin 500mg daily for 4 weeks.

Wats up Docs, I like the way u guyz attend to peeps online, thats cool. Thanks for making out time to help peeps.
I have a problem that requires urgent help. I kinda wonder if there is any pill that can make one to have an erection, even when he is not sexually aroused? Viagra makes one to sustain erection (right?),but I need to have an erection (have sex with someone u aint feeling anything for) but my penis just wont oblige.It is frustrating if that is how u pay your school fees and daily meals. I need this pill, and need it fast. PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

Doki Balogun,
How can I be free from asthma. I do have difficulty in breathing many times at night and some times I eat beans. Sometimes when I drink beer with just 2 stick of ciga.
I have battling with it for over 9yrs now. There was time I stop smoking, but now I've started it again.

What readily comes to mind as a possible cause, is exposure of your palms to repeated abrassive force, as in the case of an auto mechanic who works all day without protective gloves.

Rare skin conditions are possible causes. Growth hormone abnormalities, possibly.

A doctor will determine if the condition is a disease that requires treatment or just a reaction to the kinds of exposure mentioned formerly - in which case, prolonged abstinense from such harsh exposure to the palms, will gradually revert the texture back to a more subtle one.

I suggest you see a Urologist. That's the right specialist for Erectile Dysfunction issues.

Cold, dust/fumes and physical/emotional stress. These are the main factors that trigger-off an Asthmatic attack. Obviously, the cigarette smoke falls under "fumes" as a possible trigger in your case.

The good news is that Asthma most times wears-off as one advances towards middle-age and beyond, assuming of course that the condition began manifesting in childhood or the teenages, as do the majority of cases.  It less commonly begins to manifest for the first time in adulthood.

What's your age, bro?

Hello. Based on the scan findings of a Pelvic Inflamatory Disease (PID), and not any suggestion of "staph" per se, I'm going to give you a good-quality, broad-spectrum antibiotics prescription many times, the poor quality of the drugs is the problem:

1) Tablet AUGUMENTIN 1 gram (1000mg) twice daily for 1 week - get the Smithklime Beecham brand.
2) Tabet METRONIDAZOLE (e.g. Flagyl) 400mg three times daily for 1 week - any regular brand should do.
3) Intramuscular Injection GENTAMYCIN 280mg daily for 1 week - any available brand with 280mg per vial, will do.

Who would you get to administer the said intramuscular injection, I wonder?

Your best hope still lies in seeing a competent general duty doctor whenever you get ill. There is no more I can do by way of assistance. Well, may be there is a final further step: see the specialist (will cost more effort, time and money, though) - and in this case the specialist to get a referral to is the[b] Consultant Respiratory Physician[/b]. You'll get them in any General or Teaching Hospital by way of a referral letter from your doctor.

hi doctor.thanks for the reply bt i 4got to mention dt they did a urine test  and the result said it wz a staph the doc gave me antibiotics but like i said ealier i still ave the discharge with odour and i itch too.pls what do i do.

Any competent doctor knows that Staphylococcus is[b] nearly always[/b] a normal commensal in and on the body and hence should be ignored; almost to the point of seeing it as a contaminant of specimen culture results. This is what I referred to earlier in my reply comments about Staph, above.

You should then go ahead with my suggested prescription, above.

What then is the problem.

You may quite simply be pregnant. Always see a doctor rather than going to do a test by yourself.

I'll explain further. It is possible that the flow that started on the 25th September, was not a menstrual flow at all. It could have been the implantation bleeding that often times occurs in early conception - and it does so usually around the time of the expected period, hence the more easily confusing for women. It however is usually not as heavy and as prolonged as the normal menses.

In other words, you may have been in very early conception and the accompanying "morning sickness" is what your test was calling typhoid/"malaria parasite".

See your doctor, pronto.

I think she may or may not be pregnant.

I'm no Gynaecologist but it is a fact that depending on how often one takes hormonal contraceptives such as Postinor in a given time period, this may cause disruption of the menstrual cycle thus possibly causing delay.

Let her get it sorted out with a visit to her doctor.

Clearly, your AC Genotype is not the cause at all.

I wish I had the opportunity to medically clerk you. Then, I should have a stronger chance to make my diagnosis.

What have your doctors been saying is the diagnosis, I wonder.
