Stevecares: Please doc, i need a urgent reply. I took pharmafit Ginseng soft capsule(korea) just a capsule for the first time together with emzor paracetamol on going to bed at night. I was awaken in the middle of the night by body itching, culdn't fall asleep again, and feeling soft stomach, discomfort like worm and d urge 2 use d toilet. Could this discomfort possibly be a adverse reaction of the drug? or caused by other thing (like that very day before night i had a RVS test just 2 knw my status. Could the other cause be from the needle used for the test?). But d result showed negative. But am stil worried cos d itch has last up to 6days now. Thanks!

It is as a result of the medication you took. I continue to warn you guys not to resort to self-medication. Only doctors are trained to prescribe drugs. No one else. Take drugs prescribed by other health professionals at your own risk.

sirkay09: Gud mornin Doctor, I will like to know if there are any side effects or complication associated with using a concave lens eye glasses with the wrong lens power.I've been using an eye glasses since the past 10 months now because of short-sight am afraid that i might be using an inappopriate lens power.Is there any risk in that.

I think that an ophthalmologist is best suited to attend to your question. To the best of my knowledge, it has no side effect or complication. It is only prescribed in the correction of myopia which is one of the refractive errors.

@ACM10, thanks for you heeding my call.

Recently,this tiny inflamations (looks transparent with white fluid) started appearing on his legs anytime he wears Socks with his Shoes, one of them actually bursted and ΐt̶̲̥̅̊ turned to a big sore.
