I'm really concerned because I had a fever in the morning, and after I took some medicine, it went away. But then it came back again in the afternoon and at night. Is this normal, or should I be worried about this recurring fever? Would you suggest anything different I should try or maybe a specific kind of medicine?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a recurring fever. To help manage your symptoms, you can take Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed to reduce the fever. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If the fever persists or worsens, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

View allWhat's Ambulaxm used for? The doctor has prescribed it to me for 10 days, and Im wondering if thats safe or not.
Ambulax-M is a combination medication used to treat symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) such as abdominal pain, bloating, and discomfort. It contains Mebeverine and Chlordiazepoxide. Mebeverine helps to relieve muscle spasms in the intestines, while Chlordiazepoxide is a benzodiazepine that helps to reduce anxiety and stress-related symptoms that can worsen IBS. The prescribed duration of 10 days is safe for this medication. It is important to follow your doctor's instructions regarding the dosage and duration of treatment. If you have any concerns or experience any side effects while taking Ambulax-M, please consult your doctor for further guidance.

I'm feeling a bit under the weather with a cold today, and I was planning to have a drink tomorrow. Do you think it's okay for me to have some whiskey? I'm really curious if it might affect my cold or overall health. I read some places say a little alcohol is fine when you have a cold, but others say it's not. I'm not sure what's best.
Alcohol consumption can have negative effects on your immune system and can potentially worsen your cold symptoms. It is generally not recommended to consume alcohol when you have a cold as it can dehydrate you and make it harder for your body to fight off the infection. It's best to avoid alcohol until you have fully recovered from your cold. Instead, focus on staying hydrated and getting plenty of rest to help your body heal faster.

I'm experiencing some swelling in my left chest, and it's a bit strange because sometimes it hurts when I touch or press it, but other times there's no pain at all. Should I be concerned about this, and what could possibly be causing it?
Left chest swelling and pain upon touch could be due to various reasons such as muscle strain, costochondritis, or even a minor injury. If there is no pain at times, it may indicate inflammation or a musculoskeletal issue rather than a serious medical condition. I recommend taking over-the-counter pain relief medication like ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain and inflammation. Applying a cold compress to the area for 15-20 minutes a few times a day can also help reduce swelling and discomfort. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
