Question 1

This problem is for my father. From the beginning of this month April, he is suffering from rapidly buzzing and ringing sound in both of his ears. We went to the doctor and the doctor told this is because of age factor. Other than this my father blood test report says low level of haemoglobin RBC 10 and other WBC and platelets are in normal range. So what problem causes buzzing and ringing sound in his ears?

Question 2

Which is the best test to detect appendix inflammation? If a CT scan is performed, is it better to do it with contrast or without contrast?

Question 3

I feel as if my heart is tired and suffocated. I cannot stand or do any activity without feeling weary and tired. My heart rate shoots up easily. I just had 2 sandwiches and now I feel increased palpitations, as if my heart is sinking down to my stomach. I had an echo in October where my EF was 60 percent and everything was normal. The cardiologist recommended vitamin D shots and some multivitamins. I wanted a repeat echo done because I need to go for a wedding for 10 to 15 days and wanted peace of mind, but the doctor said it is not needed so early. Please tell me what I should do now?

My baby has a fever of 102.8 degrees F. The doctor said it is very serious and advised immediate hospital admission. Please advise what I should do?

A fever this high in a baby can be serious. If the doctor suggested hospital admission, it is best to follow that advice. Children can deteriorate quickly and early treatment in hospital helps control infection and dehydration.
