I'm 28 and I've been feeling really tired and weak lately. I'm on a vegetarian diet and I was wondering if taking Multivitamin A to Z syrup could help. What's the right dosage for me and how long should I be taking it to see some improvement? Is there anything specific I should watch out for while using this?

View allI'm in the process of applying for a visa and found out I need a medical certificate. They mentioned I have to be certified by a doctor to show I'm not suffering from any illness that could affect public health under the International Sanitary Act 2005. I'm really nervous about it and not sure what kind of diseases they're checking for. Can you help me understand what this is all about and what I should expect when getting this certificate?
visit a qualified healthcare provider, undergo the required tests, and ensure that the medical certificate reflects that you do not have any communicable diseases in accordance with the International Health Regulations (2005).

I'm really worried because I've had a fever for the past 5 days, and after seeing a doctor, I found out that my white blood cell count is down to 2300 and my platelets are at 0.81 lakhs. I did a dengue test today, and it came back positive, but I haven't noticed any improvement yet. My doctor mentioned something about starting treatment on the 5th day. Can you please help me understand what kind of treatment to expect for dengue?
Hi there I understand your concern... There is no specific treatment for dengue its just supportive and symptomatic...treatment is mainly to reduce fever, prevent dehydration and to observe patient carefully...if you are not having spontaneous bleeding nothing to worry... Just consult nearest physician and get your platelets checked daily as count bellow 20k may lead to dengue shock syndrome in that case you will require platelets transfusion...

Chest Pain After Eating _Possible Causes_: 1. _Acid Reflux (GERD)_: Stomach acid flowing up into the esophagus can cause chest pain, especially after eating spicy foods. 2. _Gastroesophageal Junction Disorder_: Abnormal relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter can lead to acid reflux and chest pain. 3. _Esophageal Spasm_: Muscle contractions in the esophagus can cause chest pain, especially after eating. _Relief Measures_: 1. _Sleeping Position_: Lying down can help alleviate symptoms, as you've noticed. 2. _Avoid Trigger Foods_: Reduce or avoid spicy, fatty, or acidic foods that can trigger acid reflux. 3. _Antacids or Acid Reducers_: Over-the-counter medications like Tums, Rolaids, or Zantac can help neutralize stomach acid.
