I'm really worried because someone close to me accidentally inhaled a large amount of Domex bathroom cleaner. Since then, they've been having trouble breathing and can't stop coughing. What should we do? Is there anything specific that can help right now?

may be suffering from chemical inhalation injury. It is important to seek immediate medical help. In the meantime, you can administer oxygen therapy if available and ensure the patient is in a well-ventilated area. The patient may require bronchodilators such as Salbutamol for breathing difficulties and cough suppressants such as Dextromethorphan to help with the cough. Additionally, corticosteroids like Prednisone may be prescribed to reduce inflammation in the airways. Please seek urgent medical attention for proper evaluation and treatment.

View allA goat just rammed into my leg really hard, and now it's bleeding. It's pretty painful, so I'm wondering what I should do. Should I get some kind of injection or are there specific meds I need to take?
I'm sorry to hear about your injury. Clean the wound with mild soap and water, apply an antiseptic, and cover it with a sterile bandage. If the bleeding continues or if the goat wasn't vaccinated, its important to get a tetanus shot and possibly consult a doctor for further treatment.

Considering homeopathy alongside conventional treatment is a personal choice. Since you're already taking an antibiotic (Meva-C), consult your doctor before starting homeopathic treatment. For digestive issues, such as loose motions, homeopathy may offer complementary support. Some commonly used homeopathic remedies for digestive issues include: 1. _Arsenicum album_: For diarrhea, abdominal pain, and burning sensations. 2. _Podophyllum_: For loose, watery stools, and abdominal cramps. 3. _Nux vomica_: For digestive issues, such as diarrhea, constipation, and abdominal pain. However, it's essential to consult a qualified homeopathic practitioner to determine the best course of treatment for your specific condition. They will assess your overall health, symptoms, and medical history to recommend personalized remedies. Before starting homeopathic treatment: 1. _Inform your doctor_: Share your decision to explore homeopathy with your conventional doctor. 2. _Consult a qualified homeopath_: Find a licensed homeopathic practitioner to guide you.

Alright, so yesterday around 1:30 PM, I got the Covid-19 vaccine. Then, a few hours later, I fell off my bike and got some scrapes and bumps on my leg and hand. I went to the closest clinic to get my wounds looked at, and the doctor there told me I should get a tetanus shot within 24 hours. Im wondering, is it really necessary to get it in that exact time frame, or is there some flexibility? Can I get the tetanus shot within 48 hours instead? What should I do?
