I've been having trouble with deep breathing for the past 20 days, and it's really freaking me out. Sometimes it's fine, but other times it comes with a pain that shoots into my back whenever I take a deep breath. I did see a gastroenterologist because I was also having stomach pain, and they mentioned something about stomach lining inflammation. Can you help me figure out what's going on and what I should do next?

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been coughing for a few days now, and nothing seems to be helping. We've tried both grillinctus and coffdryl, and even a ginger molasses mix, but her cough isn't getting any better. Do you have any advice or recommendations on what might help her get some relief?

Glans Exposure and Skin Retraction Issue _Normal Variations_ 1. _Temporary exposure_: Glans exposure can occur temporarily due to sexual activity, especially if you have a foreskin that's naturally tighter. 2. _Skin retraction_: Skin retraction can take some time, especially if you're not used to frequent erections or sexual activity. _Causes for Concern_ 1. _Prolonged exposure_: If the glans remains exposed for an extended period (>24 hours). 2. _Discomfort or pain_: If you experience persistent discomfort, pain, or difficulty retracting the skin. 3. _Infection signs_: If you notice redness, swelling, increased sensitivity, or discharge. _Self-Care Measures_ 1. _Apply a topical cream_: Use a fragrance-free, non-comedogenic cream or ointment to reduce friction and discomfort. 2. _Wear loose, breathable clothing_: Avoid tight clothing that can irritate the area. 3. _Maintain good hygiene_: Gently clean the area with mild soap and lukewarm water. 4. _Avoid further irritation_: Refrain from engaging in activities that may exacerbate the issue.

I've been dealing with this morning cold that lasts for 12 hours every day for about a year now. Initially, I thought it was just a dust allergy, but it's been getting worse. Could it be something else? What should I do?

You may be experiencing allergic rhinitis. I recommend trying an antihistamine such as Cetirizine (brand name Zyrtec) 10mg once daily in the morning to help alleviate your symptoms. Additionally, using a nasal corticosteroid spray like Fluticasone (brand name Flonase) 1-2 sprays in each nostril daily can also be beneficial in reducing nasal congestion and inflammation. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it would be advisable to consult with an allergist for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit confused because all the tests like the Mantoux, AFB sputum culture, and Genexpert sputum have come back negative, but the CT scan and x-ray are showing something concerning. We've done the AFB sputum test twice with a good sample, and it's negative both times. However, there's still a light cough, but the saliva seems normal. What could be causing this? Should we be worried or consider any other possibilities? Would appreciate any advice you can offer.
