My dad, who is 58, had a fever about 9 days ago but got better after we took him to the doctor. But heres the thinghes had these really persistent hiccups for the last 7 days. At first, they just wouldn't stop. Weve been giving him coconut water and cold water which seems to help calm them down a bit, but they keep coming back. He's also on a light diet. We're worried about what this could mean. Is this something serious? Can you suggest any remedies or next steps?

I'm dealing with mild proctitis and my doctor suggested I take Ornicef tablets. However, I've had a reaction to the ornidazole in itmy mouth's lining has swollen and I've taken cetrizine but now my eyes have turned red too. Do you have any advice on what I should do next?

Make a note of the allergic trigger and ensure to add this information to your medical records for future consults. According to your symptoms, the allergic response does not seem to be severe, however, if the swelling and inflammation seem to be worsening, do not delay in visiting a nearby physician. You may require intravenous anthistamines or steroid therapy.

I'm really concerned because I had loose motions this morning and took two tablets of Enteroquinol. The good news is that the loose motions seem to be under control, but now I'm dealing with a mild fever and just feeling really weak overall. I've mainly been eating eggs for lunch and oats with milk, flax seeds, and prunes for dinner. Is there any medication you think I should try? Also, are there specific foods I should avoid or focus on eating while I'm feeling like this? I'm just trying to get back to feeling better.

TAKE ONE COURSE OF OZ (OFLOXACILLIN N ORNIDAZOLE )TWO-TIME A DAY AFTER LUNCH AND DINNER FOR FIVE DAYS SO LARGE INTESTINE INFECTION IS CONTROLLED. AVOID SPICY FRIED JUNK FOOD OR FOOD FROM OUTSIDE TILL SYMPTOMS DISAPPEAR
