QUERY REGARDING TUBERCULOSIS

I am getting evening rise of fever from past few months and now it is intermittent. My mantoux test and ESR reports are attached herewith for your perusal please. I have also suffered a weight loss of 12 kgs in the year from March2017- July2018. I had typhoid and since then my health conditions has not been up to the mark. My Chest X ray is normal and I don't have cough at all so I couldn't go for sputum for AFB. My MRI spine and brain are also normal. I have pain in my hip region and at the tail end of the spine. Can tuberculosis occur in hip region ? If there is tuberculosis in my body, how to find out ? My USG abdomen and UGIE is also normal. Few doctors have blindly advised me to go for an empirical treatment and prescribed me two tablets of Forecox but on second opinion the other doctors said to not to take the same as it could harm me. I am left confused and I don't know what should be done to diagnose tuberculosis ? I have bony pain everywhere in my body and thighs fell heavy

Dysphagia and vomits

My mother is 65 years old and is affecting from severe dysphagia not able to digest solid at all. When she sleeps, water comes to her mouth and she has to spit it.. It happens twice or thrice during the night. She had a surgery last year where her gallbladder was removed as there was a stone in it.. Her uterus was also removed as there was some doubtful cells on the uterus lining as doctor mentioned which could be cancerous. So he removed both gallbladder and uterus. Now she is on ayurvedic medicine since then. She takes warm water every morning and had stopped dairy products.. Except little tea during the day.. She has a habit of chewing supari (the betel nut piece) since many years. she is unable to swallow even the mild solid foods in an apt manner and feels like the food is roughly going inside scratching the walls of the esophagus and stuck in between thereafter. she is usually getting cough while eating and most importantly, she is getting bubbles along with small vomiting

Chest pain (Angina or GERD ?)

Hi, I am male, 34 years, non smoker, vegitarian. In the last few weeks I took some antibiotics for viral infection. In the last one week, I am experiencing pressure in my chest while deep breathing, or while doing some yoga poses where chest is pressurised. In addition to the chest pressure, I am also experiencing chest pain, pain in muscles of arm, back pain, pain in stomatch below ribs. This pain is very mild and comes only for few seconds. The chest pain also comes when I sit in particular position, sleep in particular position and go when I straighten my body. Similarly chest pain is experienced when I jump, or when there is motion of chest like in aerobics activity. I am not experiencing any breathing problem, cough or sore throat, nor have any history of any similar disease. In addition, I am also experiencing bitter taste in my mouth, and very difficulty in swallowing food. I changed my eating habits by eating in more interval of time. Can someone please suggest some medicine.

Sore throat

I had sore throat with mild (99) fever. I took Cheston cold (3days) and Cofsil. Sore throat was almost recovered, but I developed right ear congestion. Then after ent consultation I took Augmentin 625 Dou tab (5days) and SignoFlam tab(4days). My sore throat was recovered but ear congestion was still there. Last three days, I didn't take any medicine after completing the antibiotics course. Now, sore throat is back again with mild cough but no fever so far. Ear congestion seems to be improving,  I don't feel any pain in the ear. But feel mild body/face pain.  Nose congestion is very mild, which is normal for me. No breathing issue. Altogether, it's 20 days I have these issues. Any suggestion for complete recovery of sore throat will be appreciated. In my city so far no covid case reported.

Recurring fever in 2.5 years old

My son got a fever around 1st week of October that lasted for 4-5days. His CBC showed elevated neutrophils though wbc was within limits. He also had high crp. There was no cough or cold. Blood culture was Normal; but the fever went only with an antibiotic. The second episode of fever happened on Nov 2 and lasted till nov 7; both episodes fever touching 104 in the armpit. He then had a mild fever a week later; went with a call dose n never came back. This happened twice in a gap of about a week. Since yesterday he again has fever. He was perfectly okay till about 5.30pm. we went out; by the time we came back around 7pm he had 102.5 in the armpit. We have been alternating meftal and calpol. What could be the reason for recurrent fever. Is calpol/meftal safe in such a scenario. I am really worried and want to know if it could be anything more serious.

Sensation in upper left abdomen

Hi Doc, approx a year ago while driving home from the hospital after being diagnosed with a lung inflammation (coughing up phlegm for 2 months straight) I suddenly felt this blow just below left rib cage in the abdomen. It felt like something either snapped or penetrated followed by a vacum feeling. I got a bit dizzy but it all went away fast. It's wasn't painful at all but I immediately felt like stretching. My dad and I had a few too many drinks the night before. And from that day on, everytime I lay flat, I have this heavy sensation in that area, as if something is resting on top. I turn to left or right and it goes away. Only when I lie flat do I get that bloated feeling. Next day I had an ultrasound, bloodwork and chest X-ray where they found a slight enlarged liver. It's been a year, the feeling is still there, no change. I had a new x-ray last week where they found "nodular opacity in left hilum". I've smoked for a few (5-6) years in my life. I exercise regularly. Thanks you Doc
