Question 1

Hey, so my dad's testicles started bleeding even though he didn't get hurt or anything. We noticed his blood pressure was really high at 19090 mmHg when we went for first aid. They said a vein might have burst, causing the bleeding. Could his high blood pressure be the reason for this? Also, what should we do next? Should we go see a doctor straight away or anything else we need to consider?

Accepted Answer

Yes, high blood pressure (19090 mmHg) can cause a varicocele (enlarged vein) to rupture, leading to testicular bleeding; immediate medical attention is crucial to rule out other potential causes, such as testicular torsion or tumor, and to prevent further complications.

Question 3

I'm dealing with tonsillitis and noticed these white patches on my throat, but weirdly, I don't have a fever. There's just a bit of congestion. Do you think it's necessary for me to take Augmentin 625 three times a day after meals for a whole week to...

Accepted Answer

Take it twice a day

Question 4

I'm currently on some ayurvedic medicine, but I'm running a fever of 102. Is it okay to take paracetamol with it to help bring my fever down? I'm just a bit worried about mixing them.

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can take paracetamol for fever even after using Ayurvedic medicine, as there are no significant interactions. However, it's always good to consult your doctor to ensure there are no specific contraindications with your current Ayurvedic treatment. Stay hydrated and rest well.

Question 5

I noticed a movable wobbly lump on the lower left side of my rib cage, about the size of a golf ball. Could you tell me what this might be?

Accepted Answer

Low platelet count (thrombocytopenia) with fever can be concerning. Since the dengue test is negative, other causes like viral infections, bacterial sepsis, or autoimmune disorders should be explored. Consult a hematologist or an infectious disease specialist for further evaluation and guidance. Repeat platelet counts and other diagnostic tests may be necessary.

Question 6

I'm dealing with these really intense throbbing migraines, usually about once every two months, and I've been taking Dart to help manage them. I'm wondering if it's safe to stick with this medication? Would love your insight.

Accepted Answer

Yes you can take it no problem.
