Question 1

I've been having some swollen lymph nodes on the left side of my neck for about a month, and now I'm also noticing them on the right side. They're all at the back of my neck. I thought they'd go away, but they haven't and seem to be popping up in new spots. Now there are three in total. What should I do? Please help me out.

Accepted Answer

go to nearby surgeon, get it checked. if they are arising at different places , then do biopsy

Question 2

I'm really starting to get worried because I've had this cough and cold for two weeks now, and it's not a dry cough. I've already gone through a whole bottle of Reswas syrup, but it didn't really do anything. I even tried taking Grillintus BM for a day, but I had to stop because I experienced some side effects. What should I do next? Is there something else I can try?

Accepted Answer

Considering your persistent cough and cold for two weeks, and unsuccessful treatment with Reswas syrup and Grillintus BM, consult me with detaoiled history to reassess your condition, as you may need a different medication or a combination of treatments, such as a mucolytic agent, expectorant, or antihistamine, and in the meantime, try symptomatic relief measures like steam inhalation, saline nasal sprays, and warm liquids.

I'm wondering if it's okay to drink lemon water before a fasting blood test. Could you advise me on this?
