My father has been bedridden for over 15 years and developed bed sores on both buttocks in the last 5 years. We do daily dressings but now the sores are turning black. He's also had fever for the past 23 days. We're in Pune and not considering surgery since he's handicapped and can't move. Could you suggest a good doctor to treat this? Attached his haemogram report for reference.

I've been dealing with a really bad cold and cough lately, and my doctor told me to get a Haemogram blood test done. The results show a WBC count of 13100, which seems higher than normal. Could you help me understand what this might mean and what steps I should take next? I'm a bit worried.

I've been feeling really unwell since yesterday with symptoms like a headache, fever, and loose motions. There's also this intense pain in my stomach, and it's making me feel really weak. Could you help me figure out what's going on and what I can do to feel better?

For your symptoms, you can take Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg for headache and fever. For loose motions, you can take Loperamide 2mg. Additionally, you can take Omeprazole 20mg for stomach pain. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest.
