I've been noticing some chest tightness over the past few days. Before that, I had this weird throat discomfort. It wasn't accompanied by any fever or cold symptoms, but I just felt like I needed to cough, though it wasn't exactly a cough and it seemed to settle down somehow. Anyway, this morning I woke up with a severe headache, and yesterday I ended up vomiting, but it was just gas, nothing serious. I felt slightly better afterward. Could you recommend any remedies for this?

View allI've been dealing with a viral fever and my SGPT levels have gone up to 63. I'm taking paracetamol, Defix, and other medications from my doctor. Since I live in a hostel, it's tough to really manage what I'm eating. How can I get my SGPT levels back to normal? I'm a bit worried about this and looking for some advice.

Had a penicillin shot for syphilis in my lower hip about 5 days back. The pain was pretty bad for a couple of days but then got better. Now I've got this hard lump at the injection site. Theres no redness or irritation and it's not visible, but I can feel it when I touch it, it's hard and a bit sore. Tried using a hot compress but the lump's still there. Should I be worried about it?
The hard lump at the injection site is likely a localized reaction to the penicillin injection, which can cause inflammation, scarring, or granuloma formation; as long as there's no increasing pain, redness, or swelling, it's probably benign, but monitor the lump's size and tenderness, and consult your doctor if it persists or worsens, as they may recommend further evaluation or treatment, such as antibiotics or steroid injections.

I'm allergic to penicillin, and I've been taking Augmentin 625, but I guess I need to find an alternative. Is there another good antibiotic that I could safely use instead? I'd love some guidance here since I'm a bit concerned about what my options are.
A diagnosis of Drug allergy needs formal testing in which small amount of the drug is injected into the skin over the forearm and we wait till any reaction develop to the drug like: Hypotension (sudden fall in BP) Tachycardia (fast heart beat ) Shortness of breath Rashes all over the body . Next Steps if you are truly tested as penicillin allergic then the answer to your question is erythromycin you can use it as an alternative to agumentin.
