I'm experiencing this pain in one specific spot whenever I bend, stretch, or take a deep breath. It's been happening for the past few days, and I'm not sure why it's happening since I have no other symptoms. Could you please give me some advice on what might be causing this and what steps I should take?

Norflox Tablet_: Antibacterial medication to help combat the underlying infection. 2. Banana, boiled rice, and ORS: Good choices to help replace lost electrolytes and settle your stomach.

Additional measures:

I'm dealing with a really frustrating dry cough and a bit of a fever, and on top of that, I have some back pain too. I'm wondering if MUCOCID Decongestant tablets might help with all these symptoms. Is it a good idea to use them for what I'm going through, or should I be looking at something else?

Mucocid Decongestant tablets, containing pseudoephedrine, can help relieve dry cough and fever, but for back pain, you may need additional or alternative medication

So, I got scratched by a stray cat but I'm pretty sure it hasn't been vaccinated. I'm not really certain if it used its teeth on my skin or just scratched with its nails, or maybe both? But there's nothing to see reallyno marks, no wounds, no bleeding, and it doesn't hurt or burn at all. Do you think I should get a tetanus shot? Or is it okay to wait a month or two before doing that? Also, is an antirabies injection really necessary since there's no bleeding or visible wound? The last time I got a tetanus shot was back in May 2016, and I did clean the area right away with Dettol. What do you suggest?

burning sensation on the tongue, accompanied by bleeding and redness, can be concerning. Possible causes include: - Tongue injury or trauma - Oral thrush (fungal infection) - Geographic tongue (benign condition) - Vitamin deficiencies (e.g., B12, iron) Consult a dentist or an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist for a thorough evaluation guidance.
