<s>[INST] What causes bouts of sneezing and itching? [/INST] Hi,Montek LC contains Levocetrizine and Monteleukast. These molecules are given for runny nose, itchy eyes, sneezing etcetera due to allergic reactions. They do not have any severe side effects except some patients may experience gastrointestinal symptoms and drowsiness. There are cases where this medication has been given for 6 months to patients as per physician's instructions. However, as you are feeling good with one or two doses only, you may feel to avoid taking it for next 30 days. I can understand your concern. In that case, you can take this medication for 5 days and then discontinue. However, I would like to caution you to keep extra doses with you so that you can start them if the symptoms appear again. If the symptoms do appear again, I would recommend taking the dose for full month as per advised by your consulting physician. If you feel you get these symptoms more while walking on grass, you can try some days not walking on grass and see if symptoms happen. This can help you to decide if you are allergic to grass or not.To be absolutely sure what you are allergic to, you can get your blood tested in laboratory for Allergy Test. However, you can go for this if the symptoms keep relapsing and you are not sure what is causing them. Otherwise, there is no need for this test for occasional symptoms that can be controlled by medicines. I hope this information helps. Thank you for choosing HealthCareMagic.Best,Dr. Viraj Shah </s> |
<s>[INST] Paralysis, blood clot in brain. Fastest way to recover? [/INST] Hello, I am a neurologist, thank you for posting this question in HCM Let me tell you that any given medical problem in medicine can be due to various reason and the long-term outcome depends the cause. Further in neurology, the outcome also largely depends upon the degree of initial damage to the brain. Brain stroke are mainly of two types, one in which there is bleeding and the second where there is less blood supply to brain in a particular area and that area gets damaged due to poor blood supply. The outcome of stroke depends upon which area of the brain is damaged, whether he had complete or partial paralysis and whether he had multiple areas of the brain involved. Again the outcome depends if you have gone to the hospital for treatment within 3 hrs or not, as there is a treatment available which can be given only within 3 hours. By this time i hope some of your doubts are clarified. Now you must understand that you have not posted so many things in order to clarify your doubts. However, i agree with your physician and what you have to do is to continue the medicines what your doctor has given and you have to go for aggressive neurorehabilitation which will help him a lot.

<s>[INST] Q. How long should my husband and I wait to try for a baby if we did cocaine? [/INST] Hello, Wellcome to iclinq.com. There are few researches/studies on cocaine use by males and its effect on pregnancy. Few suggest that cocaine by itself has limited effects as most of the time it is taken along with other drugs or as a cocktail of alcohol and cigarette (tobacco). So, most of the people take not just cocaine but a combination of drugs. Cocaine narrows blood vessels (vasoconstriction). It can lead to erectile dysfunction. Few studies suggest that it has receptors on testicles and sperm. So, it can degenerate testicular tissues/or sperm quality, transfer from sperm to female egg and can lead to early miscarriage. Cocaine is a very fast acting drug which affects the nervous system and produces short-lived euphoric attitude for 15 minutes to an hour, but causes long-term damage to the body and brain like anxiety, depression, aggression, impairment of logic and critical thinking, heart problem, hypertension and decrease in bone density. Its half-life is an hour. So, it takes about an hour for half of the cocaine consumed to leave the body. But, with long-term use, the drug starts to accumulate in the blood and body tissues allowing certain tests to detect it in the system for an extended period of time. After a single use of cocaine, agents created by its metabolism can be detected in the urine for two to four days, and in chronic users, cocaine can be detected up to 12 days and highly concentrated cocaine can be detected in the urine up to three weeks. It can be detected in the saliva and blood for an average 12-48 hours. In hairs and sweat for an extended period of time, it can be detected. So, after all the above description, I do not know how your husband had cocaine, as a cocktail along with other drugs, or just cocaine? Secondly, how long he has been taking it? For you, have you been on alcohol, cocaine or smoking? If you had taken in the past, better to quit completely. My advice is, try to avoid drugs like cocaine, alcohol, ketamine, and MDMA completely for a couple of months before trying for pregnancy. Because, if the mother has an addiction, it has psychosocial effects on the fetus in addition to the drugs' side effects itself. Best of luck.

<s>[INST] How to treat tightness around foreskin? [/INST] Hello, PHIMOSIS is a congenital narrowing of the opening of the foreskin so that it cannot be retracted. Phimosis is a very common problem. In most of the cases you can clear the problem yourself. Phimosis could cause moderate to severe pain while having vaginal intercourse. Apply oil on your foreskin and on the glans. Move the foreskin forward and back slowly without hurting you much. Because the oil is lubricant, it will be easier than without oil. Do this forward and back movement 20 times several times in a day. Repeat the same every day for around one month. You will get the elasticity and you will be able to retract the foreskin completely. In case if there is no result from the above massage, you can always go for a minor surgical procedure called circumcision. Therefore I suggest consulting a skin specialist for physical examination, diagnosis and treatment. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Regards, Dr. K. V. Anand </s> |

<s>[INST] Q. Why are my gums swollen with bad smell from drilled teeth? [/INST] Hi I have read your complaint and the relevant details. My first question would be did you not visit back the dentist after the filling has been done? Because you are already informed that it has a split deep under which means the treatment cannot be just a filling. I wonder why the treatment was ceased half-way. The ideal treatment plan for a split or fractured tooth should be as follows: Now the swelling in the gum and the bad odor is because the tooth got decayed heavily and it is over a year. This is called necrosis similar to a dead tooth. The burning sensation and the white coating on the side of your tongue are because of the rubbing of the tongue over the sharp edges of the tooth. Now the only choice is to remove the tooth and since the friction causing factor is removed the tongue will get back to normal in few days after extraction.

<s>[INST] Q. Why do periods get delayed after first time sex? [/INST] Hello. As the serum beta hCG levels are less than 3 mIU/mL, the pregnancy is definitely ruled out. The delay in the menses is mostly due to sex induced stress after the first time when reproductive hormones readjust themselves. The menses can get delayed even up to two weeks, so just wait for another week and they should arrive. If not, then you can safely opt for a progesterone withdrawal to resume menses.

<s>[INST] How to treat red blotchy areas all over the body? [/INST] Hello,Thank you for asking at HCM.I went through your son's history and would like to make suggestions for him as follows:1. From your provided history, I would first think of atopic dermatitis, though it should itch intensely, which is not the case with your son.2. I would also like to mention here that mild forms of atopic dermatitis may not always be due to food allergies. They can be caused by personal tendencies (genetic)/skin type (dry skin) could be reason.3. I usually suggest my such patients regular use of calamine lotion or moisturizing creams, especially immediately after bathing, which improves moisture content within the skin and hence help healing of skin.4. I also suggest my patients probiotics & vitamin D supplementation which helps to improve skin & immunity.5. If you suspect development of eczematous skin lesions due to some foods, I would suggest specific IgE levels for that particular food, which help to identify whether he is allergic to that particular food.Common foods causing allergies are animal milk, egg, peanut, wheat, soy, tree nuts, fish, sea foods, etc. If he is allergic to any food, avoidance is the best treatment option.6. As itching is not a major problem, I would suggest to get him examined by dermatologist, if not done previously, so he can think of alternative condition, if it is there.Hope above suggestions will be helpful to you.Should you have any further query, please feel free to ask at HCM.Wish your son the best of the health ahead.Thank you & Regards. </s> |

I am Dr Shareef answering your query.Even though it requires a personal physical assessment of the abdomen, if I were your doctor, I would do some blood tests of yours like a CBC, Blood sugar, blood urea, s creatinine, liver function test, serum amylase and serum lipase apart from considering the necessity of an ultrasound abdomen to rule out chances of a cholecystitis and/or a pancreatitis. In addition to the investigations as noted above, I would also advise you to abstain from alcohol and smoking if you do, and add more of roughage and liquids to your diet, and a moderate exercise schedule. On the drugs front, I would advise you for a probiotic, along with a proton pump inhibitor and an antacid gel with a anti spasmodic for symptomatic relief. Last bot not the least, if all of the above are inconclusive, and treatment did not give you relief, I would consider referring you to a gastro enterologist for a possible endoscopic evaluation of your stomach intestines.Further management and allied investigations would depend on the results and reports of the aforementioned procedures.I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem.
