My mom just had hip replacement surgery and now she's dealing with vomiting and loose motions especially during meals. Would vomikind syrup or tablet be okay to give her for this?
It's generally not recommended to administer Vomikind syrup or tablets without consulting a doctor, especially after surgery. Vomikind, which contains ondansetron, can be helpful for managing nausea and vomiting, but it's crucial to determine the underlying cause of the vomiting and loose motions and to ensure it's safe for your mother to take given her specific medical history and recent surgery

It's been 8 months since I broke my femur, and while the bone hasn't completely healed, a rod was inserted. I'm really worried about whether I'll be able to walk without a limp. I'm scared even though there's no pain right now. I've been using a stick to walk, and the doctor mentioned it might take 2 more months. Do you think I'll be able to walk without limping?
It is understandable to be concerned about walking without a limp after a femur fracture. The rod inserted in your femur is helping to stabilize the bone and promote healing. It is positive that you are not experiencing pain. With the additional 2 months of healing time recommended by your doctor, there is a good chance that you will be able to walk without a limp once the bone has fully healed. It is important to follow your doctor's advice and rehabilitation plan for the best outcome. In the meantime, you can consider taking calcium and vitamin D supplements to support bone healing.
