I'm wondering if Vizylac is effective for treating a sore or inflamed throat, or if it's meant for something else entirely? I've been experiencing some discomfort and I'm curious if this is the right medication to use or if there's a better option.

I'm experiencing something strange with my nose. There's this yellow runny liquid coming out, and it kind of looks like urine but it isn't the usual nasal discharge. I've just recently gotten over a cold about 23 days ago, so I'm not sure if it's related. It feels similar to when you have a nosebleed but without any blood. It's been happening for about a day now, just in small drips. I'm really confused and would appreciate some advice on what might be going on. Any thoughts?
You may be experiencing a condition called cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhea, where there is a leakage of clear fluid from the nose. This can sometimes be mistaken for urine due to its color and consistency. CSF rhinorrhea can occur after a head injury or surgery, but in some cases, it can also happen spontaneously. In your case, since you mentioned having a cold recently, it is possible that the increased pressure from coughing or sneezing during the cold may have caused a small tear in the tissue surrounding your brain and spinal cord, leading to the leakage of clear fluid. I recommend you see a doctor as soon as possible for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, it is important to avoid blowing your nose forcefully and to keep your head elevated to potentially reduce the leakage.

I'm 17 and getting a tonsillectomy around March 6th or 7th but my period is due on the 5th. I'm worried about having surgery during my period. Is there a way to prepone my periods so it doesn't clash with the surgery date?
Having surgery during your period won't affect the outcome of your tonsillectomy, but it can be uncomfortable. While there are methods to prepone your period, it's best to consult with your doctor or a gynecologist to discuss the risks and benefits of doing so. According to PRMA, experienced medical personnel are used to dealing with this and can provide you with sanitary products if needed
