My report states evidence of a well defined anterior wall defect of approximately 20 mm seen at supra umbilical region with herniation of bowel loops. Is this dangerous? As I am having fever for a few days now and stomach discomfort too. Should I go for surgery? Is it safe?

Yes, a hernia with bowel involvement and fever could be risky. Urgent surgical consultation is advised to prevent complications.

Why do I sometimes suddenly feel a chill during the day? I have checked my fever but it is 97.4. Four days ago my WBC was slightly elevated and today it is back to normal. Currently I am taking Ganaton OD and Pan 40 for acid reflux. One month ago I had chickenpox. I am very worried about this. Please check my report.

As per my report, my ferritin levels are high, and my chest Xray shows inflammation. I have also used Remdesivir, but the inflammation is not reducing. How many days will it take to heal? I also have rashes all over my body and body weakness. Please advise.
