Gallbladder wall thickening + Pleural effusion + ascites =post viral Sequalae or may its a fresh dengue.
Those are the ultrasound findings, to kindle the suspicion of dengue.

Dog bite

There are many confusing terms and methods in treating dog bite.
But the treatment is of course very simple.
Whatever be the age..
Start rabipur antirabies vaccine with inj. TT.
Dosage is 0,3,7,14,21 days.
Also u can stop the vaccine if the dog is healthy after 5days.
Its better to start antibiotic like phexin after cleaning the bite area with betadine solution.
This is for superficial bites. But treating with iv immunoglobulins should be considered when the bite is so deep.
That's all. Matter over.

Ulcerative colitis

Cardionice greetings folks....
This is a colonoscopic view of a pt who presented with thirty times loose stools per day for three days, passing mucoid stools occasionally, he s having lower abdominal pain, with bleeding PR.
Provisional diagnosis of ulcerative colitis was made. To confirm that colonoscopy was done. And it showed white ulcerative areas in transverse colon and descending colon.. So no other go, it is ulcerative colitis and he was started with steroids and antibiotics.
Point differentiated the diagnosis from crohns is bleeding PR and ulcers i. Transverse and descending colon.
Nice huh....
Thats what NICE ventures is about to.
