My brother just found out he has typhoid fever. Can you help me figure out a good diet plan for him? Like, what foods should he eat and what should he stay away from? Also, any tips on how we can keep everything hygienic during this time would be really helpful.

For typhoid fever, it is important to follow a specific diet to aid in recovery. Here is a suggested diet chart: - Foods to be taken: Easily digestible foods such as boiled vegetables, fruits, yogurt, soups, porridge, and well-cooked rice. - Foods to be avoided: Spicy foods, oily foods, raw vegetables, and undercooked meats should be avoided. - Hygiene tips: It is important to maintain good hygiene by washing hands regularly, drinking only clean and boiled water, and avoiding street food. In addition to the diet, it is important for your brother to take prescribed antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin or Azithromycin as per the doctor's recommendation. Make sure he completes the full course of antibiotics as prescribed.

View allI'm noticing that my right chest is smaller than my left one. Is this something normal, or should I be concerned and look into it further? What do you suggest I do about it?
It is not uncommon for one breast to be slightly larger than the other. However, if you notice a significant difference in size between your right and left breasts, it is recommended to consult a doctor for further evaluation. Depending on the cause, treatment options may include hormonal therapy or surgical intervention.

I'm wondering if having a 650ml bottle of beer every day is okay for my health. I usually just have one bottle each day and I'm a bit concerned about if it's safe or if it could cause any health issues. Could you share your thoughts on this?
