I'm feeling pretty confused and a bit worried about this pain I've got going on. It started in my arms and now it's spread to my neck and shoulders. I'm not sure who I should reach out to firstshould I go to a general physician, a pain specialist, a physiotherapist, or an orthopedist? Any guidance would be much appreciated.

Deworming medications are usually recommended for children and people living in areas with poor sanitation and hygiene. However, if you're an adult looking to deworm, here are some common medications:
Albendazole (Zentel): A common deworming medication for adults. Meclizine (Decaris): Another deworming medication for adults. Mebendazole (Vermox): Also used for deworming in adults.
However, before taking any medication:
- Consult a doctor: To determine if deworming is necessary and to discuss potential side effects.
- Check for contraindications: Ensure you don't have any medical conditions that may interact with the medication.
- Follow the recommended dosage: Adhere to the prescribed dosage and treatment duration.

View allCan a lymph node under my jaw swell because I've been touching it a lot? I've been doing this for a few days now and I'm getting really worried. Could my habit of touching be causing this swelling?
Yes, continuous touching or irritating a lymph node can cause it to swell. It is important to avoid touching or pressing on the swollen lymph node. You can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen to help reduce any discomfort. If the swelling persists or worsens, consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm struggling with a mouth ulcer that's been bothering me for three days now. Could you recommend a tablet or something to help with it? I'm really looking for some relief.
I recommend using "Bonjela" gel for mouth ulcers. Apply a small amount directly to the ulcer up to 3 times a day after meals and at bedtime. Additionally, you can take "Ibuprofen" 400mg tablets as needed for pain relief, up to 3 times a day after meals. Make sure to drink plenty of water and avoid spicy or acidic foods to help with healing.
