View allI've had swelling in my tonsils for two months now, and I've already taken medicine for a week after seeing a doctor. The swelling has gone down a little, but there's still more on one side. I noticed some white pus-like stuff there, too. There's no pain or fever, so I'm not sure what to think. Can you help me figure out what's going on? Should I be worried?
Based on your description and the photo you provided, it appears that you may be experiencing chronic tonsillitis with unilateral swelling and white pus. Since you have already taken medication for 7 days with some improvement, I would recommend continuing with a course of antibiotics to fully treat the infection. You can try taking a 10-day course of Amoxicillin (brand name: Amoxil) 500mg three times a day. This antibiotic is effective against bacterial infections commonly seen in tonsillitis. Additionally, you can use throat lozenges to soothe any discomfort and gargle with warm salt water to help reduce inflammation. If the swelling and pus persist or worsen despite the antibiotic treatment, it would be advisable to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation. Thank you for providing the information and photo for better understanding of your condition.

I'm really worried about my sister. She's been experiencing this weird burnt plastic smell and taste whenever she eats anything. It's like everything just tastes and smells like plastic to her, and raw veggies seem to be the worst. This all started about two weeks ago, and she doesn't have a cold, cough, or fever or anything like that. Now she's also feeling some pain in her left lower jaw since yesterday. Do you have any idea what this might be? Who should we talk to about getting this checked out?
Chia seeds do not directly stop periods, but they may help regulate menstrual cycles due to their high fiber and omega-3 fatty acid content. Delayed periods can be caused by various factors, including hormonal imbalances, stress, or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Since you've already taken Deviry and pregnancy tests are negative, consult a gynecologist to rule out underlying conditions and determine the best course of action.
