My son had some beetroot rice this afternoon, and now his urine has turned a pinkish color 34 times. Should I be worried about this, or is it normal?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Don't worry, the pink color in your son's urine is likely due to the betalains, a pigment found in beetroot, which can temporarily change urine color; this condition is harmless and should resolve on its own within 24 hours as the pigment is excreted from the body.

I'm really worried about my daughter. She had typhoid last week and is feeling better now, but she's complaining of neck pain just below her head. The doctor mentioned it might be weakness or a cervical sprain but didn't prescribe any medicine. Should I consider physiotherapy? I'm confused about what to do next. Also, I'm unsure about the right diet for her since she's still weak. How long might it take for her to fully recover? How can we be sure the infection is completely gone? She was on medication for typhoid for nearly a week. Would love some guidance on these concerns.
Weakness after illness is common, but it should gradually improve with good nutrition and rest. Cervical sprain is possible, and a physiotherapist could help if necessary. Diet plays an important role in restoring her energy, so focus on protein, vitamins, and hydration. Monitor her progress, and if you are concerned about any symptoms, seek medical advice for further evaluation.
