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?

I was exposed to hydrochloric acid fumes and started coughing right away. My lungs are in a lot of pain when I cough, and I even vomited once after coming into contact with the fumes. My chest also feels really heavy. What should I do? Is this something serious?

The twitching of your middle finger, muscle near the elbow, and left hand shivering could be related to various factors. Here are some possible explanations: *Possible Causes* 1. *Nerve irritation or compression*: Pressure on the nerves in your neck, shoulder, or elbow can cause twitching. 2. *Muscle strain or overuse*: Repetitive strain or injury to the muscles in your arm or hand can lead to twitching. 3. *Nutritional deficiencies*: Low levels of magnesium, potassium, or calcium can cause muscle twitching. 4. *Neurological conditions*: Certain conditions like Parkinson's disease, dystonia, or essential tremor can cause twitching. 5. *Caffeine or nicotine consumption*: Excessive consumption of these substances can lead to muscle twitching. *Specialist to Consult* To determine the underlying cause of your symptoms, consider consulting: 1. *Neurologist*: A specialist who deals with disorders of the brain, spinal cord, and nervous system. 2. *Orthopedic specialist*: A doctor who focuses on musculoskeletal disorders and injuries. 3. *Physiotherapist*: A healthcare professional who can help you with exercises and stretches to relieve muscle tension.

I've recently started trying MDMA after a friend introduced me to it, and while the experience was pretty amazing, I'm dealing with some concerning side effects now. I did two IV injections of 10mg eachone around 10:30 PM and another at 4:30 AM. I tried to stay hydrated, but now the right side of my lower lip is super swollen, and there's this burning feeling on the tip of my tongue with some white patches that seem like dehydration marks. It took me a couple of hours to get home, and once I did, I brushed my teeth, cleaned my tongue, and used Betadine and Listerine mouthwash. I also took Allegra 180, a small ORS Tetra Pack, a B Complex Capsule, and an anti-inflammatory, plus I chewed on some Vitamin C throughout the day. That helped a bit, but the swelling isn't getting better. What should I do about this?
