Question 1

my wife when she wakes up in the morning  here face and fingures are swelled as she is  taking regular medicne for thyroid?

Accepted Answer

Many possibilities: If she takes a thyroid hormone supplement and her current dose is less than she needs, this could be a factor in her swelling. Otherwise her swelling is probably unrelated to her thyroid issue. The list of possible causes is long and includes sex hormonal changes, cardiac, kidney, liver, nutritional and substance-abuse problems.

C ur doctor pls: Don't know the reason why your face swelled up? is it because you applied something? or because of something you ate /a drug you took? Most important is your breathing, not your looks, at any rate arrange to see a doctor, take an antihistaminic in the interim, take care

Question 9

my son jerking his head in every ten to fifteen minutes and this happned when he tries to slip and he wake up?

Accepted Answer

Can be normal: While falling asleep it is normal to have some "jerks" that jolt you awake when drifting off to sleep.  This is a normal occurrence especially in childhood and adolescence.  Although this occurrence can be normal please have your son evaluated by your primary care provider.

Question 10

went to the mountains the other day and my face swelled up very badly. relieved when we came down. what could that be??

Accepted Answer

Mountain Sickness: You may have had altitude sickness, which can cause swelling of the hands, eyes, and feet at altitude. You can also develop swelling in the brain, lungs, shortness of breath, and other problems. Please consult a physician and discuss your symptoms, and tell your friends about altitude sickness since you live in very mountainous area.
