I'm a 23-year-old girl and I've been having back pains that get worse when I sit for a long time, like during my tuitions. It usually only gets better if I lie down. I'm thinking about taking Shelcal 500 mg since it has calcium and vitamin D3. Do you think it's okay for me to take one tablet every day to help with the pain? What do you suggest?

Residual symptoms after typhoid fever.
Bitter taste and weakness could be due to:

- Liver or kidney function changes
To alleviate bitter taste:
- Stay hydrated
- Eat small, frequent meals
- Avoid strong-smelling foods

Consult your doctor for:
- Follow-up evaluation

Recovery from typhoid fever can take time. Be patient and follow your doctor's guidance.

It's been a month since my revision ACL surgery and meniscus repair. I've been doing physio and can bend my knee almost fully, but I still can't straighten it completely like my other knee it stays a bit forward when I stand. Is this normal, or should I be doing something different to help it straighten out?

I'm a defense aspirant and had to undergo reconstruction surgery for my leg. If I regain full motion and function, will this affect my SSB medical clearance? Could it impact my leg's performance during physical tests?
While regaining full motion and function after leg reconstruction surgery is a positive sign, it doesn't automatically guarantee SSB medical clearance. The SSB medical board will assess the extent of the surgery, the recovery progress, and the overall functionality of your leg. A history of surgery is often disqualifying, but can be waived if the board is satisfied with the recovery.
