Yes, digene is safe in pregnancy but take one tablet (gel is good) on the other hand you should take sufficient amount of water (3-3.5 ltrs) & avoid spicy & chilly foods .keep your month clean by 2 times teeth brush morning & bedtime & gargling with warm water after each meal. Most importantly take little bit of water before and after meal but take after half an hour.

There are several treatment options available for the same- 1) apply aluminium hexahydrate lotion over your soles in night and wash it the next day. Do it for a week and then use it once in a week. It is available in the market as aldry lotion. 2) you can also go for formalin 1 percent soaks for soles and feet twice in a day but it is less effective than aldry lotion. 2) there are several other treatment options like botox injections, iontophoresis or surgical methods to be tried if sweating is too severe. 3) as stress anxiety increases sweating try and remain stress free. 4) wear cotton socks and well ventilated foot wears. Hope that answers your query. Should there be further queries, I would be happy to assist you. Take care.

No. No scientific evidence in allopathy that micro oven cooked food is harmful and not mentioned in medical textbooks like that too.

So you are gujarati. I can not write gujarati here but can talk fluently. First of all if you are using any aluminium vessels like cooker, kadai, or any other - please discard it. If you are using any nonstick pans, and it has some polish gone away, pl throw it. Non stick pans should be used only with wooden spoons, only for a short time, when its polish starts coming off, it should be changed. Cooking in these pots only causes autism and cancer. You have to use cold pressed oil - it comes little expensive, but it is good for health. 24 months shelf life oil causes adhd/add as it is wiped off all the essential fatty acids that are needed for healthy growth. Then contact me on my private window. Will tell you other remedies after evaluating other factors.
