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 got hit in the ribs during a fight, and it's been really painful when I laugh, take a deep breath, or even when I cough. I originally thought it might be a broken rib, but it surprisingly doesn't hurt when I touch it or move my torso around. It's been hurting for four days without any sign of getting better; if anything, it feels like it's getting worse. Do you think this could be a serious problem? Should I consider seeing a doctor?
Orthopedic opinion is advised to the patient.

I recently drank 2 caps of Lizol, and now I'm feeling a burning sensation in my mouth. What could happen to me? Are there any side effects I should be worried about?
Drinking Lizol (a disinfectant) is dangerous and can cause severe burns to your mouth, throat, and stomach, along with potential organ damage. Please **seek immediate medical attention** to prevent complications, as it is a medical emergency. Avoid inducing vomiting unless directed by a doctor.

I'm a bit worried because I cut my hand on a steel utensil a couple of days ago. I remember getting my last tetanus shot about 9 months ago. Do I need to get another one now?
the power of TT lasts for at least 5 years. So you just need to take one booster shot every 5 years. Nothing more than that is ever required. Just take care of the cut so that it doesn't get infected. Apply a t-bact ointment over that.
