I'm really worried about my mom. She's been dealing with these varicose wounds for the last three months, and they come with crazy itching and burning sensations. The Doppler scan showed mildly dilated long saphenous veins due to an incompetent sapheno-femoral junction and a few incompetent perforators. Luckily, there's no sign of deep venous thrombosis, but still, it sounds serious to me. She's taking medications like OCID DSR, Gabamax Gold, CALDOB, and Ecosprin. I'm just trying to understand how severe this condition is and how long it might take for her to fully recover. Are there any specific precautions or recommendations we should follow to help her heal faster? Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

View allI've been noticing that my feet are constantly cold, both during the day and at night. It's got me a bit worried. Could this be something I should be concerned about?
Cold feet throughout the day and night can sometimes indicate poor circulation or underlying conditions like hypothyroidism or anemia. It's important to consult a doctor to rule out any serious issues, especially if it's persistent or accompanied by other symptoms.

I'm really worried about my mom. She accidentally took her blood pressure medication this afternoon, just two hours after her morning dose. She's supposed to take it twice a day, morning and night, but she got mixed up and thought she was taking her calcium pill. Do we need to do anything about this? Should I be concerned or is this an emergency?
U can continue same medication next day as advised..
