I'm feeling a bit concerned about a swollen lymph node under my chin. It's tender to touch and has been swollen for about 45 days. This isn't the first time it's happened its come up once or twice a year in the same spot but eventually goes away. Im just really tired of dealing with it. I had a head cold about three weeks ago but other than that, I'm a healthy 27-year-old and take pretty good care of myself. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

View allI've been having a constant fever between 99 and 101 for the last 15 days. I feel pretty normal most of the time, but when it gets closer to 101, I just get really sleepy. I did a blood test, and it showed my hemoglobin is a bit low, but the platelet count is normal. I also tested negative for malaria, and my SPG report is fine. I've already taken two 5-day courses of antibiotics as prescribed by the doctor, but the fever is still there. There's no other problem, but I'm really curious about why this is happening. Any ideas?
As its been more than a week this needs evaluation,visit your doctor for the same ,consume healthy food and stay hydrated

I've been having this fever that just keeps coming back every few hours. When I take paracetamol and get some sleep, my temperature drops, and I feel completely fine, but then the fever returns after about 34 hours and I start feeling dizzy again. I'm getting really worried about this pattern. What could be causing this and what should I do?
need more detailed history since how many days or any other associated symptoms you are suffering from

I'm wondering if it's okay to take cod liver oil tablets every day? And if so, could you recommend a good tablet brand that would be safe for daily usage?
Cord liver tablets are typically safe for daily consumption, as they provide essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids and vitamins A and D. However, it's important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting daily use, especially if you have any underlying health conditions. A commonly recommended brand is "Seven Seas" or "Nutrilite Omega-3." Always choose a trusted, quality brand for optimal benefits.
