Question 1

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?

Accepted Answer

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.

Some recommended hospitals in Bangalore include:

Apollo Hospitals
Fortis Hospitals
Manipal Hospitals

Question 2

I'm really worried because I accidentally drank some Colin while cleaning glass, and now I'm vomiting. We're in a village and can't get to a doctor right away. Are there any home remedies you can suggest to help with this?

Accepted Answer

Taking 4 Solos (Electrolyte-Rich Beverages) at Once

_Potential risks:_

1. *Electrolyte imbalance*: Excessive intake of electrolytes (sodium, potassium, calcium) can lead to an imbalance.
2. *Sodium overload*: Consuming high amounts of sodium can cause:
    - Blood pressure increase
    - Fluid retention
    - Stomach discomfort
3. *Gastrointestinal issues*: Drinking 4 Solos at once may cause:
    - Stomach upset
    - Nausea
    - Vomiting
    - Diarrhea

_Precautions:_

1. *Follow recommended serving size*: Stick to the recommended serving size (1 Solo packet per 1 liter of water).
2. *Space out consumption*: Drink Solos at intervals, rather than consuming multiple packets at once.
3. *Monitor electrolyte levels*: If you have concerns about electrolyte imbalance, consult your doctor or a healthcare professional.
4. *Stay hydrated*: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to maintain proper hydration.

Question 3

I accidentally swallowed a Karvol Plus capsule that's meant for steam inhalation. What should I do now? Is it going to have any side effects?

Accepted Answer

It is not okay to take it orally, if you are having any odd symptoms like vomitting, diarrhea refer to near by hospital

I've just taken about 100 ml of cough syrup, which means I've had 300 mg of dextromethorphan and 4000 mg of Guaifenesin. Is that dose okay, or should I be worried about any side effects or risks with that amount?
