Question 1

I'm a bit concerned about my symptoms over the past few days. I started with a mild fever and took Combiflam to help me sleep. The next day, my fever got worse, so I switched to DOLO. On the third day, the fever was gone, but I began experiencing loose motions, so I took Norflox. By the fourth day, things seemed a little better, and the frequency of the motions reduced. Now, on the fifth day, the frequency is low, but my motions are still loose. Can you offer any advice on what I should do next?

Accepted Answer

take plenty of fluids ,ors sachets ,tab loperamide once daily for 3 days

Question 2

I'm a bit concerned about my liver. I recently received an ultrasound report that says my liver is normal in size, about 14.0 cm, but there's a mild diffuse increase in echogenicity, indicating grade I fatty changes. Theres no focal mass lesion or IHBR dilatation seen. Should I be worried about these findings? What exactly does "mild diffuse increase in echogenicity" mean, and what are grade I fatty changes? Is there something specific I should be doing or monitoring because of this, or are these changes considered normal?

Accepted Answer

The liver is of normal size (14.0 cm) and demonstrates mild diffuse fatty changes, which are likely grade I in severity. There are no signs of any focal masses or bile duct dilatation. This suggests early-stage fatty liver changes without any significant abnormalities.

Question 3

Hey, so I've started noticing this strange thing where I can actually see my stomach pulsing, mostly when I'm lying down and my belly is flat, but not so much when I'm sitting. It's happening around my belly button area. I'm not really thin, with a height of 5'8" and a weight of 67kg. I also have PCOD, so there's some extra fat around my stomach because of that. Is this pulsing something I should be worried about, or could it be serious?

Accepted Answer

The visible pulse in your stomach, noticeable when lying down, could be due to various factors, including aortic pulsation, abdominal aortic aneurysm, or increased abdominal pressure, but given your PCOD and stomach fat, it's more likely related to aortic pulsation, which is generally not a cause for concern;

I've been noticing this weird pattern where I start coughing and getting phlegm right after I eat, and it seems to get worse with spicy foods. It's really bothering me and I'm not sure what's going on. Could you help me figure out what might be causing this?

reduce fods with high spices, take tablet pantop for 5 days once a day
