My husband had a fever for five days, and his platelet count was 1.6 back then. For the last two days, he's been feeling very chilly. Today we checked again, and his platelet count dropped to 1.1, but the NS1 antigen test came back dengue negative. Im really confused about what this could mean and what steps we should take next. What should we do?

Elevated SGOT (AST), SGPT (ALT), and bilirubin levels can indicate liver stress or damage. Consult a hepatologist or gastroenterologist for personalized guidance. In the meantime, consider lifestyle modifications: avoid alcohol, maintain a healthy weight, exercise regularly, and eat a balanced diet.

I'm feeling a bit concerned about a swollen lymph node under my chin. It's tender to touch and has been swollen for about 45 days. This isn't the first time it's happened its come up once or twice a year in the same spot but eventually goes away. Im just really tired of dealing with it. I had a head cold about three weeks ago but other than that, I'm a healthy 27-year-old and take pretty good care of myself. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm worried because my fever hasn't gone away in five days, and my platelet count has dropped to 94,000. I've been on a drip for these five days, but there's no change in the fever. What could be going on, and what should I do next?

I'm dealing with a 103-degree fever and intense pain in my hands and muscles for the past three days. I also have a cold and cough but no vomiting or digestive issues, and my blood reports came back normal. I'm taking Dolo 650 every 4 hours, as well as Monocef 200mg, Rantac 150mg, and Ascoril syrup. My fever went down last night but came back this morning. Is there any way to get rid of this fever quickly? I'm really worried about what's causing it.

The symptoms you've described suggest you may be experiencing anal fissures, small tears in the lining of the anus. Hard stools can cause pain and discomfort, while softer stools may not exacerbate the issue. Consult a gastroenterologist or a proctologist for a proper evaluation and treatment.
