I'm experiencing something strange with my fingers, and I'm hoping you could help figure out what's going on. Sometimes in a week, my right hand middle finger shows a range from 93 to 95 or from 98 to 94. But when I check my left middle finger or any other finger, it's always between 97 and 100. This inconsistency has got me really puzzled. Could there be any reason why my right middle finger is showing these changes while the others aren't? Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

View allI'm feeling really off because my hands are getting unusually warm, but my body temperature seems normal. I've already been tested for typhoid, malaria, dengue, and jaundice, and all the tests came back negative. I'm pretty worried and not quite sure what's going on. Can you offer any insight into what might be happening?
Given the negative test results for typhoid, malaria, dengue, and jaundice, the warm hands and feeling of sickness could be related to other conditions such as anxiety, overactive thyroid, poor circulation, or anemia; consult your doctor about further testing, such as a complete blood count (CBC), thyroid function tests (TFTs), or an electrocardiogram (ECG), to determine the underlying cause.

I'm 20 and I'm experiencing a lot of body pain, just like I did three years ago. Back then, the doctor told me I had ASO titre positive after doing a blood test and recommended penidure injections and ecosprin tablets. I've been feeling this way again for the past three days. Could you please let me know what I should do next?
It sounds like your symptoms may be related to a recurrence of a condition like rheumatic fever. Please consult a doctor promptly for a detailed evaluation, including an ASO titer test and possibly other investigations. Early treatment with appropriate medication, like antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs, is important to prevent complications.

I'm a bit concerned because my ESR is 50 mmhr. Can you help me understand what that might indicate? I'm planning to see my doctor later today, but I'd love to get some insight in the meantime.
An ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate) of 50 mmhr indicates an elevated level, which can be a non-specific marker of inflammation in the body. It is often used as a screening test to help diagnose conditions associated with acute and chronic inflammation, such as infections, autoimmune diseases, and certain types of cancer. However, it is important to note that an elevated ESR alone is not diagnostic of any specific condition and further evaluation is usually needed. Since you are already planning to see your doctor in the evening, it would be best to discuss your ESR results with them. They will be able to interpret the result in the context of your overall health, medical history, and any other symptoms you may be experiencing.
