I'm dealing with mild proctitis and my doctor suggested I take Ornicef tablets. However, I've had a reaction to the ornidazole in itmy mouth's lining has swollen and I've taken cetrizine but now my eyes have turned red too. Do you have any advice on what I should do next?

Make a note of the allergic trigger and ensure to add this information to your medical records for future consults. According to your symptoms, the allergic response does not seem to be severe, however, if the swelling and inflammation seem to be worsening, do not delay in visiting a nearby physician. You may require intravenous anthistamines or steroid therapy.

View allI'm a bit concerned about my liver. I recently received an ultrasound report that says my liver is normal in size, about 14.0 cm, but there's a mild diffuse increase in echogenicity, indicating grade I fatty changes. Theres no focal mass lesion or IHBR dilatation seen. Should I be worried about these findings? What exactly does "mild diffuse increase in echogenicity" mean, and what are grade I fatty changes? Is there something specific I should be doing or monitoring because of this, or are these changes considered normal?
The liver is of normal size (14.0 cm) and demonstrates mild diffuse fatty changes, which are likely grade I in severity. There are no signs of any focal masses or bile duct dilatation. This suggests early-stage fatty liver changes without any significant abnormalities.

I've been having this pain on both sides when I breathe deep, and sometimes even with normal breathing, for a long time now. Its been going on for about 10 years, especially on the left side of my rib. Breathing feels difficult now and then, but theres no wheezing, just some snoring. I dont feel overly sleepy during the day, but I've been having some ongoing gastric issues. Theres been no weight loss or loss of appetite. My chest was checked and cleared by a pulmonologist, and my echo test was all good according to the cardiologist. My blood pressure is normal too. Is there something else I should be looking into or considering?
Considering your symptoms and medical history, it is possible that you may be experiencing musculoskeletal pain or inflammation in the chest area. I recommend trying over-the-counter pain relievers such as paracetamol and skeletal muscle relaxants such as baclofen or chlorzoxazone

My mom's got an 11mm gallbladder but she doesn't show any symptoms. What options do we have to clear it up? Does she need surgery, or is there a chance it could resolve on its own? I'm really looking for some guidance on the best steps to take.
There is no permanent medical cure for gallstones. Although there are medical measures that can be taken to remove stones or relive symptoms, they are only temporary. If a patient has symptoms from gallstones, surgical removal of the gallbladder is the best treatment. Asymptomatic (producing no symptoms) gallstones do not require treatment.
