Hello doctor, I’ve had a persistent cough for about 3 months now. I’ve done a chest X-ray and sputum test, and both came back normal. My symptoms include: - Chest pain when I cough  - White mucus  - Throat pain (recent)  - Strange ear discomfort (feels like scratching or pressure before coughing) The medications I was given (Cefadroxil and cough syrup) haven’t solved it. Please could this be postnasal drip, asthma, or something else? What tests or treatment would you recommend?

I am a 24 years old women and I have a 1.5-year-old baby (delivered by C-section). I am facing a problem in my sexual life. My husband says he does not feel much sensation during intercourse and thinks my vagina feels loose. Because of this, our intercourse is not satisfactory and it is affecting me mentally. I also feel that my vaginal lubrication is less (dryness), which may be causing discomfort. I want to know: 1. Is vaginal looseness possible after C-section? 2. Can this be due to weak pelvic floor muscles or hormonal changes? 3. What can I do to improve tightness and lubrication? 4. Should I do Kegel exercises or take any treatment?

Greetings Doctor, I hope you are doing well. I am reaching out regarding my grandmother. Over the past few days, she has been experiencing significant swelling in her right knee and is currently unable to walk even a step due to the pain.

Considering her age and the level of discomfort she is going through, I kindly request your guidance on what can be done next for her treatment and relief. I have attached her current knee photo along with her heart medication prescription for your reference. Thank you in advance for your support.

I’ve been having episodes for quite some time where I feel chest discomfort, often starting after acidity or gas, with a lot of burping. Once this happens, my anxiety suddenly increases and my heart rate goes up and feels like it doesn’t settle easily. During these episodes my neck and body feel very stiff, and even deep breathing doesn’t calm things down much. I’ve had ECGs done several times and they’ve always been normal, but in the moment it still feels frightening and I worry that something might be wrong with my heart. I’ve discussed this with doctors many times and was told it could be anxiety-related, and advised to take anxiety medication or see a psychologist. I want to understand what treatment or medicines could actually help, because these episodes keep recurring and are affecting my daily life.

My daughter has had her periods since 1.5 years. The initial 8 months she had them once in every 2 to 3 months, since the past 8 months it has more or less regularised. However this month she got her periods 1 week before time ( 30th Nov instead of 8th Dec ), the blood was brownish & the flow was very scanty for 1 week. Post that hee usual periods began starting 7th Dec... It's been almost 10 days that there is bleeding, began with spotting & then regular periods. She does not complain of any pain or discomfort but I am worried if this is normal during menarche?

I experience a sharp, vibrating, “ringing” pain around the outer side of my left elbow, which feels nerve-like—almost like a zinging or buzzing sensation that travels through my arm. The pain occurs only during load-bearing or push-based movements, such as bench pressing or pressing the clutch of my motorcycle (Royal Enfield), which has a hard clutch. I don’t feel any pain during day-to-day activities. The discomfort is centered around the elbow and eases with rest. There’s no visible swelling, weakness, or numbness otherwise. What could be the possible cause of this pain, and which type of doctor should I consult for proper diagnosis and treatment?
