Question 1

I'm really concerned about my mom. She had brain tumor surgery last year, and the doctor prescribed her Hisone 5mg pills to take daily since then. Lately, she's been having some dizziness and occasional blackouts. Could these symptoms be related to the Hisone pills she's taking? What might be causing this?

Accepted Answer

Don't worry, hospitalization ensures close monitoring and proper care.

Shortness of breath in typhoid fever can occur due to various reasons, such as anemia, dehydration, or cardiac complications.

Although it's true that shortness of breath typically occurs in the third week, it's not a hard and fast rule.

Your doctor will continue to monitor your condition and adjust treatment accordingly.

Focus on resting, staying hydrated, and following your treatment plan.

You're in good hands; let the medical team manage your care.

Question 2

I'm really concerned because for the past few days, my index finger on the left hand has been twitching a lot. It doesn't hurt, but it used to happen only occasionally and now it's happening all the time. I work with computers all day, but this twitching occurs even when I'm not using the laptop, like when I'm just resting. My other fingers are totally fine. When I saw a doctor, they mentioned it might be due to computer use or a vitamin deficiency. I'm just wondering, could there be any other reason for this? Is there any medication I could take to help with the twitching?

Accepted Answer

each organ of the body can withstand some amount of stress , if strain for muscle exceeds its capacity muscle become fatigue and causes twitching. This is not only for finger , it happens after strenuous exercise , anxity etc.. Nothing to worry , take nutritious food and strengthen your muscles .

Question 3

My brother has swelling in his head due to a blood clot in his brain. One doctor recommended surgery to control the swelling, but another said medication would be enough. Right now, he seems physically fine but is very weak internally and has lost a lot of his memory he can't name simple objects like a fan or spoon and doesn't even remember the difference between singular and plural. The doctors say it's a case of forgetfulness. How long will his recovery take, and will he ever regain his memory like before?

Accepted Answer

Recovery time after a brain blood clot can be variable, ranging from months to even longer. While some individuals regain most of their memory and cognitive function, the extent of recovery depends on the location, size, and duration of the clot, as well as the individual's overall health and response to treatment. The memory loss your brother is experiencing, which may be described as forgetfulness, could be a symptom of temporary brain damage or a sign of ongoing brain function recovery
