I had diarrhea on September 2nd and took a 4mg Imodium tablet at night. Since yesterday, my bowel movements have completely stopped. I'm also experiencing burning and itching in my vaginal area, and there's a thick white discharge. Could this be related to the diarrhea or the Imodium tablet? Are there any OTC medicines or creams I could try for this?

I'm 17 weeks pregnant and I'm wondering if it's possible to hear my baby's heartbeat using a Doppler device at this stage, or is it still too early for that?

Persistent Cough After Antibiotics and Cough Syrup _Concerns and Next Steps_ 1. _Incomplete treatment_: Azithromycin is typically prescribed for 5-7 days. A 3-day course might not have fully cleared the infection. 2. _Underlying conditions_: Persistent cough can be a symptom of various conditions, such as bronchitis, pneumonia, allergies, or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). 3. _Further evaluation needed_: Consult your doctor to reassess your symptoms and determine the best course of action. _Recommended Actions_ 1. _Schedule a follow-up appointment_: Visit your doctor to discuss your persistent cough and determine if additional testing or treatment is necessary. 2. _Get a chest X-ray or other tests_: Your doctor may order a chest X-ray, spirometry, or other tests to rule out underlying conditions. 3. _Consider alternative treatments_: Depending on the underlying cause, your doctor may prescribe additional medications, such as bronchodilators, antihistamines, or acid reflux medications.

I'm dealing with this constant tingling sensation in my anus and vagina, and it's really messing with my focus at work and even my sleep. Washing the area after urinating gives me some short relief, and sitting down after I've been walking or standing for long periods helps a bit too. I'm wondering if there are any natural remedies or maybe an ayurvedic solution that could help with this?

try drinking plenty of water to help flush out any potential infection. You can also try taking cranberry supplements or drinking cranberry juice to help prevent and treat urinary tract infections. Additionally, you can use over-the-counter antifungal creams like Clotrimazole for vaginal itching and discomfort. Make sure to maintain good hygiene practices and wear cotton underwear to keep the area dry and clean. If the symptoms persist, I recommend consulting a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.
