I got hit in the ribs during a fight, and it's been really painful when I laugh, take a deep breath, or even when I cough. I originally thought it might be a broken rib, but it surprisingly doesn't hurt when I touch it or move my torso around. It's been hurting for four days without any sign of getting better; if anything, it feels like it's getting worse. Do you think this could be a serious problem? Should I consider seeing a doctor?

View allI'm really worried and need some advice. If someone accidentally takes an overdose of sleeping pills, how long does it usually take for them to wake up? Should I be doing something specific to help them, or is it better to let them sleep it off? I would really appreciate any guidance on this.
The time it takes for a person to wake up after an overdose of sleeping pills can vary depending on the specific medication taken, the amount ingested, and individual factors. In general, it is important to seek immediate medical attention in cases of overdose. The treatment may involve administering activated charcoal, providing supportive care, and monitoring vital signs. The specific medication and dosage will determine the appropriate treatment plan.

My partner took a big breath of deodorant spray by mistake, and now we're both kind of worried about it. Are there any risks we should keep on our radar? Does she need to see a doctor right away, or could it be something that'll just pass?
Deodorants are not to be sprayed inside the nose. .I don't know why anyone would do that. May be you smell a lot. Anyways, there is no real risk here. If she has any symptoms, take her to a doctor near you.

I've just taken about 100 ml of cough syrup, which means I've had 300 mg of dextromethorphan and 4000 mg of Guaifenesin. Is that dose okay, or should I be worried about any side effects or risks with that amount?
SOME DRYNESS OF MOUTH, DIZZINESS , SLEEPY SO TAKE REST, NOTHING ELSE. REST WILL SOLVE ALL PROBLEM.
