polly

for a couple of days I have had a sinus infection that causes a lot of pressure on my teeth,holdin water in my mouth for a while helps ease the pain,so this means I have been drinking a lot of water. Tonite I feel the need to urinate every 5 minutes or so,I have no trouble with being able to pass the urine,but I am constipated and everytime I go to pee I feel like a bowel movement and very little eases out. I am sore from all the wiping and I have the chills. Have I got water poisioning, how do I ease the bladder problem of being full every little bit. I have really slacked off of the water now.

Answer by voluntary user(s)

The symptoms are suggestive of pregnancy. Wait and watch. Get urine test for pregnancy. In case of pregnancy, symptoms gradually resolve.


As per the above advice i did the pregancy test it was negative, is it too early to do the pregancy test, pls suggest.. I am worried

Answer by voluntary user(s)

It is not too early. Most of tests can diagnose pregnancy in one week of fertilization. It could be due to stomach upset. Take light diets, avoid spices and fried. If very necessary try antacid.

-craving for salts
-trouble sleeping, wake up exhausted
-hard time concentrating

-fatty lump in above my arm pit on my inner arm, doctor first called it a cyst then a fatty deposit and i shouldn't worry about it. grew over night size of a 50cent peice, and I got stretch marks from it.
-migraines. I have a history of basil migraines but these are more like normal migraines and tension headaches.

Summary of Medical Question:

UTI/vaginal infection

Posted by:

ReNae

About a week ago, I had burning when I urinated and noticed I had red spots around the vaginal area. I also developed a series of small blisters on my upper thigh. I no longer have the burning during urination and the blisters seem to be better. Should I go to the doctor to make sure I don't have anything serious going on or just let this run its course without antibiotics. I don't like taking medications, but don't want things to get worse if I don't. This has been going on for about 2 weeks now. Thanks.

Answer by voluntary user(s)

Renae, this is very serious. Seems to be sexually transmitted infection (STI). STIs are notorious for starting as very mild symptoms and symptoms can disappear spontaneously but the infection remains inside and keeps proliferating. Pl get yourslef examined by a gynecologist. Get swab, urine and blood tests done for STIs including HIV. Never agree for sexual contact without precautions like condom.

Summary of Medical Question:

Azithromycin side effect

Posted by:

Jesse

Got and std test came positive for chlamydia, did not have strong symptoms, was presribed 1g of Azithromycin now my pee really burns bad and it has been like 5 days. Is this normal

Answer by voluntary user(s)

Burning sensation of urine is likely to be due to disease and not due to drug. Get yourself examined by a gynecologist/ veneriologist. Cervical swab can confirm clamydia. Also urine C&S examination and HIV tests are recommended. Avoid sexual contact witout precautions like condom.
_____________________________________________________

No, Jessy, this is not normal. In burning micturition we have to rule out certain diseases like gonorrhoea. May be initially symptoms were mild but infection can flare up gradually. These are sexually transmitted infections and should not be ignored. The dose of azithromycin or amoxycillin in gonorrhoea is 2 gms stat. Please consult a skin specialist.

dosage of medicine

Posted by:

damo

Will the high dosage intake of paraceptamol may be causing any risk?

Answer by voluntary user(s)

In recommended doses, paracetamol does not irritate the lining of the stomach, affect blood coagulatiion or affect function of the kidneys, However, some studies have shown that high dose-usage (greater than 2,000 mg per day) does increase the risk of upper gastrointestinal complications such as stomach bleeding.

Summary of Medical Question:

High fever

Posted by:

frenie

I have high fever from the past one week...my fever ranges from 99 to 102. all my tests were fine(they included blood, urine,lungs,heart). I have been presribed with macral 250 as i am allergic to most antibiotics. I am taking those antibiotics the course of which completes on tuesday yet i had 102 fever today. I suffer from diabetes (Type 2) and hypothyroid. can someone advice

Answer by voluntary user(s)

Frenie, first and foremost is to ensure that blood sugar and thyroid hormones are controlled. Second, the tests may be repeated and further management depends on your location. For example in India, malaria and typhoid are quite common, so I would advice peripheral smear for malarial parasite and blood culture for typhoid besides routine tests. After giving samples for tests, I would like to prescribe stat dose of antimalrial (like metakelfin) and start a course of antibiotic effective against typhoid- like ciprofloxacin. Further management depends on the test reports. Pl consult a medical specialist.

Summary of Medical Question:

ivf tretment cost and taken time

Posted by:

Gopal prasad

our wife firts time pregnent-2001 but 5 after five month child deth and take aborsation then after one find out her both tube are block.please guide me how many cost expenses and how much time taken in this treatment.

Answer by voluntary user(s)

Gopal, if both the tubes are blocked, natural conception is not possible. The surgery to maintain the patency of tubes is also complicated and success chances are less. One option is IVF. This is also a long process. Every month ultrasonogrphy will be done, ova will be taken out from ovary and fertilization will be tried. This is expensive and time consuming method may cost few lacs with no guarantee. It is suitable for rich people, Another option is to adopt a nice baby.
