Question 1

i have tested positive for covid 19. what medicines, if any should i take. or should i contact my own doctor directly? thanks. jason

Accepted Answer

See below: There is no specific medication for Covid-19. If you get fever or pain, you may take paracetamol. Drink plenty of fluid like fruit juice. Wear a mask, stay away from other people , practice hand hygiene. If you develop breathing difficulty, go to the nearest hospital, immediately.
Wish you good health.

Question 2

i want to build body like jason statham.i do weight and cardio training.how much protein should i take? is whey protein is safe to take.25 yrs,75 kg .

Accepted Answer

Safe: Not really a medical question or answer but as a fellow gym junkie whey is safe. Two grams protein per KG is a good start so 150 g per day. Try limiting cardio and using a basal calorie expenditure calculator to figure weight gain if that is your goal.

Question 4

can nizoral (ketoconazole) shampoo treat itchy dry scalp? i've tried head & shoulders and jason tea tree shampoo, but the itchyness and dryness still come back.

Accepted Answer

Nizoral (ketoconazole) could work: But this is primarily intended to treat fungal infections. Have you seen a dermatologist to ensure that this is not a condition other that may benefit from a more specific therapy?

Question 5

dentists, is natural toothpaste an effective alternative to fluoride based toothpastes? or will natural toothpastes like "jason" be ineffective at fighting off cavities? i use natural because of a canker sore sensitivity to the sls in normal pastes.

Accepted Answer

ADA Seal: Any toothpaste that carries the ADA seal of acceptance would be considered effective in keeping your teeth healthy. If you have such allergies to ingredients, you can supplement your oral hygiene routine with a fluoride rinse.

Question 6

are there other names for becker's nevus?

Accepted Answer

Not really: Nobody really likes the terms "pigmented hairy epidermal nevus" or "nevoid melanosis". I have several colleagues who are physicians and/or athletes who have Becker nevi and all of them like it. If you have one, I hope you enjoy it as well. Richard Gere's is famous and he used to show it off onscreen. Best wishes.

Question 7

what are the differences between duchenne md and becker's md?

Accepted Answer

Same locus: Becker's is caused by a milder allele than Duchenne's but otherwise they are the same disease. If you have mutant dystrophin and symptoms but are walking at age 16, it's Becker's. We are all hoping that gene therapy will come through for this disease group.

Question 8

if i have a 2 inch by 1 inch beckers nevus and i get it removed surgically, will it continue to spread? i am 20 years old.

Accepted Answer

Mole: Once a nevus or mole is surgically removed with clear margins it should not return. A dermatologist will be able to evaluate and treat.

Question 9

what to do if i'm suffering frm becker's naevus and have a lot of body hair.so is this the reason?

Accepted Answer

Let's talk about it: Both are genetic -- it's you. I have several physician colleagues with Beckers' nevi and every one of them likes them. You can get lasered if you want, with so-so results, or you can embrace this special patch of testosterone-sensitive skin. It's essentially no danger, and you'll find folks who like you like the mark as well. If you prefer smooth, shaving, waxing, lasers / electrolysis are options

Question 10

difference between duchnne & becker muscular dystrophy. can becker m d discovered in early childhood?

Accepted Answer

Yes: There is many similarities between them but becker muscular dystrophy tends to have slower and less severe course than duchenne muscular dystrophy. 
Though patients with becker's can be discovered early they can go undiagnosed till their  thirties.
