I'm really worried about this breast lump that started during my pregnancy. It turned into sinuses, and the shape changed too. They did an ultrasound and found acute chronic mastitis, but even after antibiotics, nothing helped. Now they've told me it's breast TB, and I'm on medicine for that. Could this really be tuberculosis, or is there a chance it could be something else? I'm really looking for some clarity here, doc.

if you have any other symptoms like fever , evening rise of temperature and mainly the blood test would have confirmed if it was a tuberculosis

View allI'm trying to understand if a CT value of 31 means someone is still contagious for Covid after 14 days. The person feels great now and even had their loss of smell come back, but this CT value is 31 on their second test. Is this something to be concerned about?
A CT value of 31 is on the higher end of moderate, meaning the viral load may be low enough that the person is less likely to transmit the virus, especially if they have recovered symptoms like the return of smell.

I've been experiencing something strange and it's a bit concerning. Every evening around 5 o'clock, I start getting a fever, and it sticks around until about 9 o'clock. After that, I feel completely fine, only for it to happen again the next day. This has been going on for the past 15 days. I'm on antibiotics, but they don't seem to be helping. The blood test says I have typhoid, but I don't notice any other symptoms of it in myself. What should I do?
Follow proper antibiotic course and immunizing diet

I'm a bit worried because my Dengue IgM came back positive about 15 days ago, but the IgG and NS1 tests were negative. Im still feeling really weak even now. The strange thing is, I don't have a fever, headache, or any drop in my platelets or WBC. What should I do about this?
Dengue fever can cause weakness even after the fever has subsided. To help with your symptoms, you can take plenty of rest, stay well-hydrated, and eat a healthy diet. You can also take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen to help with any body aches or discomfort. Additionally, you can consider taking vitamin C supplements to boost your immune system. If you experience any new or worsening symptoms, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider.
