I'm dealing with drooling for the past few months and I've heard it might be from worms in the stomach. I've had worm issues before, so I'm concerned this might be related. How can I put an end to this problem once and for all? Also, I've noticed a big gain in weight over the past couple of years. Could these be connected? What should I do?

Drooling may be related to various causes, and its important to get an accurate diagnosis from a healthcare provider. Worm infestations are treatable with medications, but they are unlikely to be the direct cause of drooling. For weight gain, a combination of dietary changes, physical activity, and medical consultation is necessary to manage the condition effectively.

I'm a 32-year-old male, and I'm a bit worried about my recent liver test results. My SGOT is 63 and my SGPT is 70. Should I be concerned about these numbers? Also, my bilirubin level is 1.26. Could you please advise me on whether these are dangerous and suggest any medicine or lifestyle changes I should consider?

Smegma is a normal, harmless substance. To get rid of smegma: Retract your foreskin and gently wash the area with warm water and mild soap. Use a gentle, fragrance-free cleanser to avoid irritation. Avoid using harsh or abrasive products. Dry the area thoroughly after washing. Repeat this process 2-3 times a week. Consult a urologist or healthcare professional if you experience discomfort, pain, or difficulty retracting your foreskin.

I'm thinking about starting my day with two boiled eggs on an empty stomach, but I've heard mixed things about it. Some people say it might cause gas. Is it actually safe to eat boiled eggs first thing in the morning, or should I be concerned about digestive issues?
