Why can't I eat & constantly feel sick?
It seems like you might have morning sickness symptoms, even if not pregnant. Feeling unwell throughout the day, aversion to some food, weakness, and crying without clear triggers are typical indications of this. Sometimes, it can result from hormonal adjustments or stress build-up in your body. Attempt consuming little portions frequently, keep yourself well hydrated and get plenty of sleep too. If these signs persist, see a gastroenterologist who will help rule out other underlying issues.

Could Anal-to-Vaginal Contact Cause Pregnancy After Ejaculation?
When an egg is fertilized, that is called pregnancy. A sperm can swim and it can live for a little while outside the body. Pregnancy may occur if any sperm gets into your vagina. Keep an eye on strange symptoms such as missed periods or feeling sick (nausea). If you’re concerned, take a pregnancy test to put your mind at ease.

What could cause a fractured elbow and how is it treated?
Your elbow might be broken. When the elbow is broken, you can feel pain, see swelling, and can’t move your arm easily. Fractures may occur by falling or putting too much pressure on the joint while doing some activities. A cast or sling may be required for your elbow to heal, but sometimes an operation is necessary too. Don't forget to follow up with an orthopedist.

Is conservative treatment effective for painful swollen foot?
An outward roll of the ankle may cause immediate pain and swelling, so an eversion injury is likely. There could be mild fractures or other problems missed by the initial examination or X-rays. I would advise you to get it checked again, if not much progress has been made in the next 3 weeks even while using an air cast for support.

Why haven't I had normal periods after ipill?
Following the usage of some pills like I-pill, the period variation is ordinary. There are some times when it will take longer for the periods to be regular again. The reproductive system can be affected by being in a state of tension that is caused by either mental or emotional stress. We can not rule out other causes of the delay in menstruation therefore if you are concerned about anything it is advisable to see a gynecologist.

Why Am I Dizzy and Stiff in the Morning?
Seems to be like you may have vertigo and a little bit of tightness in your back. Vertigo can make you feel like you’re off balance or that things around you are moving. As for the back, it could be from how you’re sleeping or sitting. Try to drink more water and stretch gently right after waking up. If this continues to happen, assess your sleeping position among other factors that may affect your general well-being.

Why Am I Dizzy and Stiff in Mornings?
There are many reasons why you might wake up feeling dizzy and with a sore back. It might be that you did not drink enough water before going to bed, or that you slept in an awkward position which caused your back to become stiff. To combat this, try drinking some fluids before falling asleep and refrain from shifting your weight onto alternate sides during the night. Moreover stretching gently upon waking up can help loosen any tight muscles. If none of these solutions work then it would probably be wise to consult a orthopedist.
