Question 1

My father is 80 years old and has been suffering from fever for the past 10 days. He was on antibiotics for 5 days and admitted to the hospital after an X ray showed pneumonia and his blood report showed a high WBC count (16,400). After one day of treatment in the hospital, the fever subsided, but the doctor advised to continue treatment for 5 to 6 days before discharge. Now, he has swelling in his hands and legs, and he is also having bathroom related issues. What could be the reason for this swelling, and is it serious?

Question 2

Could you please check my recent test reports and let me know if there are any issues with MCV, ESR, lymphocytes, or liver and kidney function tests? I am also experiencing white patches on my skin and would like guidance on possible causes or next steps.

Question 3

Hi Doctor, My mother has high blood pressure and thyroid issues. In the past, she has undergone multiple surgeries, including three hernia operations, appendix removal, and a sterilization procedur, around 11 operations in total. Could you please advise about COVID19 vaccination for her? Specifically, which tests should be done before vaccination, and what parameters in the blood report should be within normal limits?

If antibiotics have not helped and the fever persists, surgical removal may be needed. This could be a resistant bacterial infection. Avoid delaying further. You can get a second surgical opinion.
