Suggest Remedy For Dizziness And Pain In Ribs

Last month I had a very sore throat and I couldn t walk sit up on my own or eat. It started off with sneezing (I have no allergies)then it went to a sore throat always being tired,high fever,having no energy,and not being able to eat. When I went to the doctor they wanted to take blood work I never had a problem with it before but for some reason I passed out my blood pressure was low and I had a very high fever so they assumed I had pneumonia.I was given medication for this. A few days later I couldn t talk,walk sit stand or do anything without help. I had pain in my back and ribs and couldn t stand up straight. Finally I did many tests the day I went back to the doctor my temperature and blood pressure were almost normal they gave me medication for a kidney infection. Because of the medication I was on for pneumonia the doctor assumed it messed with the results as it all came back fine but my blood test came back positive for mono ( the kissing disease ) as of yesterday I started losing my voice again and getting sharp pains under my ribs and I just feel very dizzy. And once I finished the medication for the kidney infection I was back to my independent self.. and I felt amazing up until yesterday night

hi,

as by reading your history, i am unable to understand that without confirming with an x-ray or MRI or CT scan how the medication was started for pneumonia and later for kidney infection. Well thats the past story, Since now you should focus on how to control the infection with pain and aches.

Perform regular breathing exercises, oxygen is the major source of human body, human body can stay without water for 1 hour or more but without oxygen every second is important. because one cannot live without oxygen.

Also, breathing exercises have been divided into -
1. Deep breathing
2. Diaphragmatic breathing
3. Pursed lip breathing
4. Costal Breathing
5. Abdominal breathing.

Performing this exercises regular can help you further to maintain the metabolism and also the lung capacities,

Also , you need to perform the core stability exercises and pelvic floor strengthening exercises to avoid any kidney issues in future.

Most patients with such symptoms i recommend the exercise along with medication and they bounce back faster.

I wish you a Good health.
