I've got this sudden sharp pain in my left rib when I breathe in, and it started while I was just sitting at my desk at work. It's been half a day, and it hasn't gone away. I can't take a full deep breath. Do you think this will just go away on its own, or should I be worried?

I'm feeling a bit of warmth in my back and sometimes it feels like I have a fever when I touch my neck, but I don't actually feel feverish inside. The heat in my back is noticeable, and I'm struggling to explain it properly. Can you help me understand what might be causing this?

You may be experiencing symptoms of a mild fever. The warmth in your back could be a sign of increased body temperature. I recommend taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed to help reduce the fever and discomfort. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

I'm really worried because I've had a high fever with shivering for two days now. The fever keeps coming and going, but my feet are extremely cold. I've taken dolo 650 and norflox, but now I'm feeling nauseous since this morning. All I've eaten is some bread and milk. On top of that, I'm dealing with a cold and really bad body pain. What should I do?

You may be experiencing a viral infection. To help with your symptoms, I recommend taking Tab. Paracetamol 500mg for fever and body pain. You can take one tablet every 6 hours as needed. Additionally, for nausea, you can take Tab. Ondansetron 4mg. It can be taken twice a day to help with nausea. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention.

I'm thinking of taking two Zincovit tablets a day, is that okay? Also, when would be the best time to take them? Would appreciate any advice on this.

Feeling and seeing your pulse in your stomach can be unsettling. _Possible Causes_ 1. _Normal variation_: As you mentioned, it's normal to feel a slight pulse in the abdominal area. 2. _Increased abdominal muscle tone_: If you've recently started exercising or have increased your physical activity, your abdominal muscles may be more prominent, making the pulse more visible. 3. _Thin body fat percentage_: If you have a low body fat percentage, your abdominal organs, including the aorta, may be more visible. 4. _Aortic pulse_: The aorta, the main artery that carries blood from the heart, runs through the abdominal cavity. A strong aortic pulse can be visible in some individuals. _No Need for Concern_ Unless you're experiencing other symptoms like: - Abdominal pain or tenderness - Shortness of breath - Dizziness or lightheadedness - Rapid or irregular heartbeat
