Hi docs, months ago I was in a minor accident and since then my jaw occasionally locks up. Like it'll be difficult to open my mouth wide and after a while it goes back to normal. Its really freaking me out now, I thought it'll stop after a while but it still happens.

What should I do?

Sal C: Hi ladepete
From the piece of information you gave, it seems you only treated yourself based on what you taught was your problem.

There are many causes of recurrent fever which malaria and typhoid are among. And also it is possible your immune system is weak.

I advice go for the following tests. MP, widal, FBC, and VCT. Your test result can give us a better clue on how to go about your treatment.

Again try as much as possible not to expose yourself to mosquito bite and be mindful of the water you drink.
Thank you very much doctor. I have done all of this test several times. The last was just a month back. Mp -ve. Widal:very low typhoid. FBC normal. I have done HIV test 3ce from nov last year to date. I did hbv test too just last month. I just finished halfan and amoxyl beecham 500mg.(20 capsules) used 1/3 daily and halfan 2tabs 6hourly.this I took ust 3 weeks ago. I must add, I drink approximately 8 bottles of heineken a week. With this medications less than a month ago; I went clubbing last week friday and had some hot drink and white wine. Now I have fever feelings again.never fully recovered from the hangover. Sont know if this can help u in helping me better. This reoccuring fever is killing my social life plz help.thanks

Re: Doctor in the House: Free Medical Advice Available by saara123: 10:49am On Aug 11, 2013
great idea this is, in our family its a kind of trend that every Saturday our family doctor used to come and do routine check up of all the family members, I think its a good idea, to take best reviews of doctor time to time to have wealthy health.

jeffobodo: Doctor please help,my friend is always having whiite clear fluid coming from the tip of his penis,he does not feel pain or itching please what is the cause


It could be caused by an STD.. Urethritis is my major suspect given the white colour of the fluid.. Treatment would then depend on the causative organism.. E.g Chlamydia, adenovirus, E. coli..etc Given that he doesn't feel pain or itching now, I suspect a Trichomonas infection.. This can be treated with flagyl.. Pls see a doc to confirm.. Cheers.

What is ur sister's age? what r the drugs she was given? Did she adhere strictly to the regimen given to her by the doc? A pinworm infection is another suspect here.. Let her go for a Cellophane tape test.. An anti-helminthic(pyrantel, ketrax, zentel or wormin) would do. Cheers.

Hello house, pls i really need help. Have been having palpitation, chest pain, dificulty in sleeping at night for a long time. Have done E.c.G, lung function chest test, ECHO, X ray test and everything was normal. The Dr says its probably due to anxiety which i dont really think so. Have been on a powerful drug which am trying to reduce but am still seeing all the symptoms i mentioned once in a while. Pls is there any heart hospital i can visit around western state? Or any advice?

Same thing happened to me when I took up skipping as a form of exercise. It was my right ankle sha that was in pains. It wasnt funny then. I thought if I stopped, then it will heal. It didnt heal for a while. I kept massaging it and took Ibuprofen then. I havent skipped again ever since then. My case is peculiar sha because I have a bad leg.

when CXR, ECG nd ECHO r ALL normal which heart hospital do you need? those symptoms may not be physical, a visit to a psychiatrist could do the magic.

If what you wrote up there is the case then I will advise you to...

Increase your fruit and water intake.
Reduce your alcohol intake.(I've seen rare cases of people who breakdown whenever they take alcohol )
Make sure you always get enough rest.
Refrain from loading your system with excess antibiotics.(It has its own adverse effect).
Take simple analgesics like paracetamol whenever you have such feverish feelings.(Except it is confirmed that you have malaria at that particular time)
Do little exercises but not so much work.
Hopefully this will help.

God bless you doctor. All u said is just what I read online. I started jogging morning and evenings on sunday. And taking a lot of water, got an immune booster IMMUNACE. I take 1/2 daily. I will add fruits as you have said now. But honestly since I started to exercise, asides the body pain as a beginner...I have been really fine. I know the pains will stop as I continue the exercise. Thanks and God bless you!
