Question 1

I've been dealing with a really bad cold and cough lately, and my doctor told me to get a Haemogram blood test done. The results show a WBC count of 13100, which seems higher than normal. Could you help me understand what this might mean and what steps I should take next? I'm a bit worried.

Question 2

I'm a bit worried because I've had a dry cough for about a week, and now the right side of my back is swollen. I went to the doctor, and she said the swelling is from the cough and it's nothing serious. The swelling has gone down, but I'm still feeling a little pain around my right rib area. Should I be concerned about this lingering pain? Could it be something more than just from the cough?

Question 3

I'm really worried about my friend who smokes a lot. Do you have any suggestions on how he could quit smoking? Also, he doesn't eat much and is really thin. What can he do to gain some weight in a healthy way?

Accepted Answer

To help your friend quit smoking, I recommend using Nicotine replacement therapy. He can try Nicorette gum or patches to help reduce cravings. Additionally, he can try prescription medications like Chantix or Zyban to help with withdrawal symptoms. It's also important for him to seek support from a counselor or join a smoking cessation program for additional help and motivation. To address his concern about not eating much and being thin, he can try consuming calorie-dense foods like nuts, avocados, and nut butter. He can also try drinking protein shakes or smoothies to increase his calorie intake. Additionally, he should focus on eating frequent small meals throughout the day to help with weight gain.
