Hi doc. What can be done if one is having feeling like food or something is stuck in her throat/food pipe/esophagus?

You observe and watch if this feeling can go on it own for a time being. Should it continues after a certain period of watching, then report this to the doctor so as to have you properly examined for every causes of Dysphagia.
How will you manage this, and what can you do on your own for improvement?

littleguy444:
as in I am very afraid because of the complications and I don't have money to pay for the medical check-up do you have any advice for me

I do believe you have the doctor's call line that is leading you on this investigation. It would have been good enough to have him hear you out and at the same time tell what to do. For the now in your case, I am just in the middle.
I would only advise that you stay off medications and alcohol that could spite off fulminance of the inflamed liver. Maintain a good hygiene, and when you have some level of cash you can go for proper health review and continuance of treatment.

A doctor here once recommend lamictal or something like that for my 20 years old daughter who has seizure some few months back.
Though the medication was a little bit helpful, but when she stopped taking it after a week, the seizure crisis came up again.
Please what do I do to help my depressed daughter?

By depression,do you really mean "Depression "?

Hello doctors in the house,
A colleague of mine had lost 2 babies in a space of 2 years (being 2nd and 3rd pregnancy). Both babies took ill and died at approximately 6 months of age. I got to know that the mother has negative rhesus factor while the father's is not known. Please could there be a link between rhesus factor incompatibility and the reoccurring death of the babies? Her first baby is 5 years old and is doing fine.
I Thank you.

TyroneP:
Doctor in the house, I've been experiencing foul smell in my vagina(fishy smell) with discharge but no itching for about 2 weeks now. What drugs can I take? Please advise.
You can also recommend drugs for my partner too.

How long has this been?
Have you gone for any diagnostic test to know the cause of this?
Also, is this your first experience having a foul smelly discharge?

Yes, there's. Except something is done to abate the iso-immunisation the recurrence by chance may not ease off too soon. It is refer to as the hemolytic disease of the newborn due to the mild-to-severe destruction of the red blood cells. Moderate cases survive by contributory compensation by the normal body functions and proper clinical management. However, as the breakdown of the red blood cells is on rapidity the more the level of functional oxygen dwindle low leaving the infant clearly optional to face the thriving world. Some may survive and end with some life-damaging aspect of the brain commanding fine movements, or die being so severe and unfit to live.

Thanks very much. I will draw the couple's attention to that. I am not sure they are aware of rf incompatibility or precautions required when negative rf mother gets pregnant. Hopefully they will seek medical advice.
I appreciate you.

Hello Doc, please I really need your help

I have been having stomach aches around my stomach ( upper, lower and side). The ache is sharp and sometimes mild. I also experience dizziness and tiredness most of the time.

I was at the hospital few days ago and made a complaint , the doc suggest I do urine analysis, PVC, malaria and typhoid. The result shows that my urine is fine , the Doc said my PVC is43 and also OK.
However, he said I still have malaria and a bit if typhoid. Now I am undergoing treatment for that.

The issue is I am not getting better and even the doc cannot explaining. Any suggestion ?

Excel70:

Let me add when I drink bitter leaf juice. The pain disappear immediately but it will still reoccur when I take any of the aforementioned food

You just narrated everything that happens to me.

Whenever I take fanta or coke. I start passing urine often, get tired easily, experience body itching and generally feel uncomfortable. Unless I take bitter leaf before I can be relieved.

Doctors in the house, a friend's baby is having sooo much boils, it has become a really disturbing situation. The little one(lo) started having these boils some days before she turned 3months. We initially thought it had something to do with teething cos she was having teething rash, drooling, pulling at her cheeks, nose, hair and ears, high body temperature and swollen itchy gums. The boils were persistent even after the pus was drained out, she was then given ampiclox neonate oral drops which was said to last for 5days. She's 4months+ now, the boils reduced or so we thought only for it to come back some weeks back. Initially, it started on her jaw then moved to her upper back, neck, head and lower back. We got some penicillin for the boils, but it didn't go away. We thought it was heat cos the weather was really very very very hot and lo was always sweating excessively that she had to have a change every 3/4hrs. She won't sleep during the day and won't sleep at night either just crying, pulling at her face and trying to scratch off the boils. We eventually took her to the hospital, they didn't even examine the boils they just said we should buy one mixture and rub it on the 'kokoro'. They didn't even want to listen to us, they felt like we shouldn't try to tell them how to do their job they know sooo well. We were pissed, bought the mixture and ran malaria test for the excessive sweating, high body temperature and fever, result came out negative though. The mixture contains coconut oil, sulfur and c-base, we were sceptical about using it but we later decided to give it a try since we've done all we could. Lo cries sooo much when we apply it, it must have been very harsh for her body so we stopped and trashed the mixture. The boils have gotten to her chest now but all the boils seem to be draining into the one at the back of her neck cos its increasing in size by the day, we tried draining it out but to no avail. The boils keep moving to different parts of her body, the back of her ears, her hand now her left outer ear, some of it later drain into the big boils at the back of her neck. Her parents are practically losing their mind, they don't know what else to do. Hospital is a no no for now until COVID-19 blows off. It really hurts seeing lo in sooo much pain, she cries everytime when bathing, eating, she can't lie down or even play with anyone just tears, tearss and more tearsss Please do you know what can be done about this? Please help, she's such a sweet little girl.

please I need solution to this, what can be taken to help

TyroneP:


Thanks for your Swift response

It's been like a month
I haven't gone for any diagnostic test
yes, this is the first time I'll be having such such without itching.

Though I am tempted to give treatment to you on syndromic approach but it would be better to have a High Vaginal Swabbing to confirm Bacterial vaginosis,or even trichomoniasis.

When you have done the swabbing send in the result for guidance.

Can I see the result that had you confirmed to have malaria and typhoid fever?
Have you done an abdominal scan regarding this?

I did it in the hospital and the doc did not show me the result. I guess it was sent to him via internet.

He did not suggest I do abdominal scan. Do you suggest I do that?

What really bother me more is the fatigue I feel.

Apart from the first doctor you took the baby to,have you guys taken him to see another doctor?
Apart from the boil recurrency, was she born with any health problem?

It wouldn't be bad you have an abdominal scan done since you are complaining of pains in every quadrant. I think it is cool. You may also share the reason he hasn't up till now suggested an abdominal scan.

So, in other words you can't have your results?

Pls doc! Why do I keep testing positive and negative to hepatitis B? What could be the cause?

He said he wanted to rule out something things and that is why he asked me to do urine analysis, PVC, malaria and typhoid. After that he would know what to do next.

As for the results, Maybe if I request it, I will get it. I will visit the hospital today to ask for it.

So being said, I think you and I would have to wait for your doctor's next plan of action. During this time you may seek to have him tell you how to manage your discomfort. Notwithstanding, you can make available your lab's for me to crush over on.

Alright. This boil formation recurrency is due to Staphylococcal infection. But it will be something she will get over as she grows. However, for the now management will require your:
1) Use pain reliever such as Emzor liquid paracetamol to reduce pain and temperature.
2) Expose body to aeration.
3) Application of coconut oil may help
4) Draining the boil should be carefully to avoid spreading of agent into deeper tissues.
5) Continue with the Ampiclox neonate oral drops.
6) See doctor soon as this corona virus situation comes down a bit for proper care and support.

Please doc how do I go about staph infection took various antibiotics but no much difference
