I'm really worried after what happened last night I was nearly drowning in a deep pool without realizing it until I almost ran out of breath. I managed to get out with some help, but I swallowed a lot of the pool water. Initially, I was gasping for air but felt okay after about 20-30 minutes. The problem is now I'm shivering, my left arm is aching, and it seems like I'm taking fewer breaths than usual. I'm feeling super tired and looking pale too. Is this something serious, or is it a normal reaction?

View allI've ended up taking 8 ibuprofen tablets in just 35 minutes because my hip is really sore and I'm having a hard time walking. Now the pain is spreading to my rib, both at the front and back, and it feels like a sharp, jabbing pain. Should I be worried about taking so many tablets in that short time, or is this kind of pain normal?
Phimosis can be treated with either topical steroids or surgery. Topical steroids (e.g., betamethasone) can help stretch the foreskin, but may require repeated applications. Surgery (circumcision or preputioplasty) provides a more permanent solution. Consult a urologist or a pediatric surgeon in Bangalore to determine the best approach for your case. Some recommended hospitals in Bangalore include: Apollo Hospitals Fortis Hospitals Manipal Hospitals

Accidentally swallowing a small amount of Betadine (povidone-iodine) gargle is unlikely to cause significant harm, but it may cause temporary gastrointestinal upset, such as nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea, due to its high iodine content

I accidentally ended up swallowing a Bendax400 tablet, which I know is supposed to be chewable. I'm kinda worried now. Could you let me know if that's harmful, and what I should do next?
Swallowing a Bendax-400 tablet, which is meant to be chewed, is unlikely to cause significant harm, as the active ingredient, mebendazole, is an antiparasitic medication; however, to be cautious, drink plenty of water and monitor yourself for potential side effects like stomach upset, nausea, or diarrhea;
