I've ended up taking 8 ibuprofen tablets in just 35 minutes because my hip is really sore and I'm having a hard time walking. Now the pain is spreading to my rib, both at the front and back, and it feels like a sharp, jabbing pain. Should I be worried about taking so many tablets in that short time, or is this kind of pain normal?

Phimosis can be treated with either topical steroids or surgery.
Topical steroids (e.g., betamethasone) can help stretch the foreskin, but may require repeated applications.
Surgery (circumcision or preputioplasty) provides a more permanent solution.
Consult a urologist or a pediatric surgeon in Bangalore to determine the best approach for your case.

View allI've never done drugs before, but the other night I ended up trying crystal meth and weedjust a couple of lines and some puffs. Ever since then, I've been feeling really off. I got some sleep, but I'm still dizzy, had diarrhea, and even after drinking a ton of fluids, I get these random chest pains. Is this something that I should be really worried about? Any idea what's going on or what I should do next?
I recommend taking activated charcoal to help absorb any remaining toxins in your system. Additionally, you can take over-the-counter antidiarrheal medication like Imodium for your diarrhea. For the chest pain, you can take ibuprofen for pain relief. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical attention immediately.

I'm really worried because my flatmate accidentally took sorbitrate instead of her prescribed medicine for a UTI. She's only 22 and is now feeling dizzy. The sorbitrate she took was actually meant for her late grandfather. We're in Delhi North Campus and I'm not sure what to do. Can you offer any advice on how to handle this situation and what steps we should take to ensure she's okay?
