Cause of green discharge with fishy odor despite medication?
Hello doctor,
I find myself in front of a very uncomfortable situation. I do not know what is going on with me, but I would like to find a cure. When I was younger, I was sexually assaulted and abused for three years. I believe then I contracted an STD, but I never got it treated because I was too afraid to speak. Days go by, and I find my self in front of green like discharge with a very bad fishy smell. I cover it as I can with deodorant, showering more often and the problems seem to calm a little.
But the truth is that after a while, these tentacle-like strings grew on my vaginal lips, causing very discomfort itchiness. After five years, I have been prescribed many different times the treatment for bacterial vaginosis, but the symptoms always come back. Every time I get sexually aroused this slimy clear discharge comes out of me making it super embarrassing. But the worse part is that my vagina is filled in the inside with these cottage cheese-like things that come out stuck on my finger when I put it in. These also come out during the day along with an acid like vaginal discharge that has no color, it is somewhat transparent, but it burns like acid is coming out of me. Kindly help.

What causes fever, vomiting, and coughing in older women?
Hi,
My mother has a fever of around 104 degrees Fahrenheit. She is also having vomiting and coughing. I am sure it is not malaria, dengue, typhoid, UTI, or COVID infection. She had a history of typhoid a few years back. Her current medications include Tazloc-H, Glador, and Paracetamol. We got her urine culture done from a lab. What could the problem be? Please help.

What is the mechanism behind neurofeedback for mental health?
Hello doctor,
I have encountered the concept of neurofeedback as a potential intervention for mental health and am keen to grasp its mechanisms. Specifically, how does neurofeedback harness neural oscillations and electroencephalography (EEG) to impact mental well-being? Are there specific mental health conditions or concerns for which neurofeedback proves particularly beneficial? Furthermore, could you provide insights into the evidence supporting the effectiveness and safety of neurofeedback in addressing mental health issues? Kindly help.
Thank you.
