Tonsillectomy for tonsil stones
I've been dealing with persistent bad breath for years and I've found out the reason for it is hidden deep tonsil stones. I sometimes cough out stones, I also try to flush out stones from my tonsils with a curved syringe and I clear out tiny stones which later improved my breath a little. But, I am stuck. I can't get these stones out anymore. No matter what I do, it stays stuck inside and causes me chronic bad breath. When I touch my crypts, it smells awful and a white liquid comes out when I press it which also has this awful smell. Eventually I had enough of this and visited an ENT and told him about my problems. He examined my tonsils, didn't see any stones visible from the outside and said I don't have tonsil stones, there's nothing to treat and many people live with bad breath and basically to deal with it. I know the recovery can be painful for tonsillectomy but I am ready for it. I really want the surgery done. Should I consult another doctor and push for surgery ? It affects me

Low-Lying Placenta at 5 Months
I am 5 months pregnant. My recent anomaly scan showed a low-lying placenta (placenta previa/low-lying placenta). After reviewing the scan report, my doctor prescribed Ecosprin 150 mg once daily at night.
I have not started taking Ecosprin yet because I am worried about the risk of bleeding due to the low-lying placenta. I have not had any vaginal bleeding so far.
Should I start taking Ecosprin 150 as prescribed? Is it safe to take with a low-lying placenta? What precautions should I follow?
I also have a nasal allergy with blocked nose, white mucus, sneezing, and frequent cough for the last 3 months. Mocet-LC improves the symptoms, but they return when I stop the medicine. Is Mocet-LC safe to continue during pregnancy?

14 week vaccination
My 15-week-old baby received her routine vaccinations today, including the oral rotavirus vaccine. She already has silent reflux/possible GERD symptoms.
After vaccination, she became much more uncomfortable, restless, and refluxy (severe regurgitation even when held upright, coughing) than usual. She seems unsettled after feeds and is having difficulty sleeping comfortably. I also gave Domstal (domperidone) at night for reflux symptoms.
Wanted pediatric advice on:
1. Can the rotavirus vaccine temporarily worsen reflux, gas, or stomach discomfort in reflux babies?
2. Is increased fussiness/restlessness common after the vaccine in babies with silent reflux?
3. What symptoms would require urgent medical evaluation versus normal post-vaccine discomfort?

Thoracic lymph nodes tuberculosis to
I've had a fever since last month. As long as the medicine is being taken, there is no fever, and as soon as the medicine is over, the fever starts coming again.
I have no other symptoms except fever — no weight loss, no cold, or cough.
My X-ray is clear. That’s why the doctor suggested a CT scan, CT scan report: MULTIPLE ENLARGED PERIPHERALLY ENHANCING LYMPH NODES NOTED IN MEDIASTINAL, RIGHT PARATRACHEAL, PRECARINAL, SUBCARINAL AND RIGHT PERIHILAR REGIONS — MEDIASTINAL & RIGHT HILAR LYMPHADENOPATHY, KINDLY TO RULE OUT POSSIBILITY OF KOCH'S. Then the Mantoux test, Induration was 22 mm.
The doctor gave me medicine — tablets of HRZE fixed-dose combination, each one contains : [Rifampicin 150mg + Isoniazid 75mg + Pyrazinamide 400mg + Ethambutol 275mg] — and told me to take 4 tablets at once, at any time in a day.
Could you please confirm whether this is active TB or latent TB, and if the treatment given is correct for my condition?

Chest pain
Hey,
So my problem is chest pain on left side, which comes and goes within minutes sometime. But yesterday night I had a discomfort in my chest but I slept well but as soon I woke up I feel it's really terrible. I could feel the pain with hand movements so I run to emergency room immediately. There doctors measure my bp 140/85. They do ecg which was completely normal. Then they do an ABC test shows that I have low blood oxygen level 77.8 (at that particular time) and then they do a trop I test which shows results lesser than 0.01. As I had anxiety issues from years they told me to consult psychiatrist and suggested me to add petril beta 0.25 clonazepame as sos pill. But still I am feeling so scared of all what happened I am so anxious.
Additional - I had cough and cold last night and maybe a bit fever too (I didn't measure but felt)
What should I do in such situation?

Headache with scalp pain
Hello Doctor,
I would like your advice regarding some symptoms I am experiencing.
This week, I started feeling heaviness and pressure in my head, along with localized scalp pain on the top of my head (vertex area). I also experienced pain over the forehead, which started after a fever last week. The scalp pain increases when touching the area or when tying my hair, even loosely.
After the fever, I developed a cough, which has not completely settled yet. I do not have breathlessness or chest pain.
I have been experiencing anxiety and poor sleep recently. I have already undergone investigations:
CT scan of the head (August) – normal
ECG – normal
Blood tests – normal
Thyroid test – normal
I have also been taking Pores D3 (vitamin D3) once monthly and have already taken 8 tablets over 8 weeks.
Kindly advise the possible cause and whether any further tests or treatment are needed.
Thank you
