Brief Answer:
upper respiratory infection of minor variety.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have read your query thoroughly.
* The effects are not in relation with turmeric use.
* Throat irritation and discomfort are actual upper respiratory tract infection
related which are decreasing.
* The burning urination is due to inadequate hydration, which is not maintained at
its best.
Suggestions :
- Do gargles with salted lukewarm water added peppermint oil 3 times.
- Drink plenty of liquids.
Follow up after 24 hours or early as per the requirement.
Regards.

Ok sir i am agree about burning urine that was not today.
But sir do you think i need antibiotic ?
Although pains are mild. But sir my question is still that why 2 days back pains shifted to neck and back head pain and 2nd ear also effected.
And sir still a slight pressure is there my both ear. It felt like i have some thing very slight pain when i chew something. Is that could be any ear infection. ?? Or turmeric can resolve this in next few days???
Already following gargle routine and turmeric with milk.
because sir this vomit type feeling is slightly i felt after one hour of eating lunch or dinner. as you know already ear thorat and under chin slight pains are there , that vomit feeling gives me again fear that something serious is there.

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome for follow up.
* Vomit type feeling is partly due to stress and partly from reflux of stomach acid.
* Dietary measures to avoid spices, non veg at present and antacid will resolve it.
* For throat and ear discomfort, no need of antibiotic as it is already in resolution
phase showing decreasing intensity and will be taken care by turmeric only.
Regards.

Hi
* Turmeric is only supportive with certain level anti microbial action, it is not so that
you will not get anything during its intake.
Yes it helps to combat the underlying infection to better smooth level.
* Generalized lymph node swelling is including all possible sites as axilla, neck,
groin, abdomen one has innumerable enlargements ( which is obviously not your
case ).
* In HBV, acute infection presents with lymph node enlargement in some cases as
neck and peri hepatic area of abdomen ; not all cases present such.
* You should take capsule omeprazole ( 20 mg ) once daily in morning on empty
stomach with sips of water.
* Problems do not see age group, it is the stress, curiosity, anxiety, expanding
responsibilities, knowledge, multi tasking functionality that give more problems
age is only a number to present all the hidden parts which are below the tip of
ice berg.
A new born child may have severe heart problem and a 90 year old aunt may
be perfectly healthy without any medical ailment.
* I request humbly to live by internal emotions and not by number game ! which
is done by every normal individual of the earth ( and I consider you as unique
from general public ).
Regards.

Sir thanks a lot for a detailed reply. Everytime you replied satisfactorily.
But sir you told me i am unique from general public. It means from my stress and anxiety level or due to some other problem?.
I know sir i more stressed and taking things more seriously because of hiv fear. But sir believe me each and everything i shared on this forum is 100% actual . Which i faced.
Sir my question is why in my whole life i never had such problem of lymp nodes. Means i have cold and flue many times but sir this only lymp nodes swelling i had never observed and first time i face under chin pains last year.
And now sir these thorat pain started exactly after 3 month after one protected sex in November. And that day i had a fever too. But then problem finalised and now 20 days back again same type of problem started. Why these comes without sneezing? That is the real fear. Fear of hiv or hbv.. because i had oral sex with my girl friend. And i am sure she dont have hiv as she is virgin and not sexully active. But how many chances of hbv with oral is possible??
Now sir today is more improved then yesterday in case of thorat and ear pains. But sir i want to make my immune stronger. Stress without test is not possible to finish completely. Deep breathing i am trying but it works only for sometime. I was taking multivitamins but during taking multivitamins still i had these problems.
Is there any chance of ear infection??
I hope you will read all these and answer same like before.

Detailed Answer:
Hi
1. You are unique in the sense that not every one in the universe is these much
curious for own health and concious, it is positive side of your part not
negative.
Secondly, I have never taken your symptoms as all of fear, I have always
considered them as your true symptoms.
2. Lymph nodes are there always below skin, it is only when we notice then we
think repeatedly about them.
3. Every symptom does not necessarily present every time, so do not predict
sneezing with every viral infection.
4. HBV transmission requires infected saliva to transmit, then how you consider
that her saliva was infected with HBV to give you HBV ?
5. Deep breathing does not work for sometime, it is your less dedication towards
meditations, which is not giving you desired results of my expectations. YOGA
has immense power to control each and every stress of the world, if practised
with full dedication.
6. There are no obvious signs of ear infection as difficulty in hearing, severe
throbbing pain, discharge from ear, ringing in the ear etc. so do not think for
the same.
Regards.

sir now all things were improving but from morning again neck pain i am feeling. it was reduced very much but again i am feeling today. throat pains ear pains and under chin pains are reduced and very much . does the neck pain might be due to air Conditioner ?
but this pain is same like 3 days back i was feeling related with lymph nodes or throat. now sir kindly tell me what does these neck pains are . again you will thought i am connecting with hiv. but sir reality is whatever i have studied about hiv before still stuck in my mind. now neck pains are actual what could be the reason behind this?
pain is at the exact point where head joins the neck.i feel it is somewhere related with slight pains of ear and throats. but over all the the pressure of ear and throat pains and vomit feelings reduced and now stress is reduced then previous days.

Hi
1. If recently new exposure to air conditioner, then its air might give some discomfort
otherwise if you are routinely accustomed with the same then it will not cause the
same.
2. These neck pains are due to actual viral infection of upper respiratory system from
minor air bug, that is the only reason.
3. I would suggest to take tablet tylenol ( 500 mg ) morning and evening after meals
for 2 days along with nexium.
Regards.

Hi
1. Neck pains do not indicate anything of serious concern, it is your internal conflict
which is making you to think it as serious.
2. That pain is nerves or muscle ligament related, not due to lymph nodes.
3. Nexium is Esomeprazole for your reflux condition.
Thank you.

U can understand that fear is same as i have read before that stiff neck is the symptom of hiv also. That's why is i was asking. Tylenol is available .can i take Ranitidine? Bcz that is available here.
Do u think this neck problem is related with acid reflux. ??
And sir this lyump type of problem in thorat due to reflux reducced as stress released. Does that is related with stress?? But now i am fearing if this neck pain or now slight thorat pains not finished it will start again .kindly explain for me

Detailed Answer:
Hi
* Let me clarify that you have not stiff neck, which is very painful spasm of the
neck where you are not being able to move the neck at times.
Not every HIV positive has stiff neck.
And there are so many conditions which can lead to stiff neck.
* You can take ranitidine ( 150 mg ) morning and evening with sips of water
before breakfast and before dinner.
Take tylenol after 1 hour of consumption of ranitidine.
Tylenol should be with snacks, not empty stomach.
* This type of problem is partly from stress, acid reflux and partly from viral bug.
* Again you are going away from our principle of BE POSITIVE attitude, which is
making you to think that it will start again.
Welcome for further doubts.
