Hello Dr. My mother is 72Y. She is having overweight approx 80-85kg height 5ft. She is having all the common issues like High BP, Sugar bit higher and Thyroid. She is talking medicines regularly. But usually travels in hired cabs or auto, but not walking much, but whenever she travels after 2-3 days her legs gets swollen from toes, ankles up to calf and shin.(I don't know the exact word) but it looks like edema or oedma. If we press it it has small pit look like. She is consulting doctors also and following prescription too. Can you suggest me what is the issue is it bone or vein ? Or to whom shall I consult? Which type of specialist? Somebody advises go for Ayurvedic therapy, typical Kerala massage. Or what can you suggest?

Ans: Hello Sir, Thank you for your query. I would recommend you to consult a Physiotherapist for your mother. That will actually help and also help in strengthening her knee joint considering as age advances there is muscle loss . She will be guided for some 10-15 sessions depending on her condition and later she can do home based exercise program. I wish her quick recovery

Sir I am from Nepal, but currently I am staying in India. I want to continue my studies. If I complete 10th grade from NIOS, will I be able to go back to Nepal and take admission in 11th grade?”

Ans: HI,
GREETINGS FROM THE REDIFFGURUS!
Yes, it is possible. NIOS is similar to CBSE or ICSE, so there shouldn't be any issues when applying for 11th grade in Nepal. However, you will need to submit an equivalence certificate from the Higher Secondary Education Board (HSEB) or the National Examination Board (NEB) in Nepal. This certificate should confirm that the NIOS 10th grade is equivalent to the Nepali SEE (Secondary Education Examination). Additionally, you will need to provide your original marksheet and migration certificate.

Before seeking admission, it's advisable to contact the specific school or college in Nepal to confirm their acceptance of the NIOS certificate. This will help ensure a smooth admission process.

Hi sir if I am unable to produce ews certificate during josaa counselling and I will produce declaration also to change to general. Will I get any seat allocated to my rank as general after the declaration?

Ans: HI SWE,
GREETINGS FROM REDIFFGURUS!
It's straightforward: If you are unable to produce the EWS certificate, you will lose your eligibility to secure a seat under the EWS quota due to this issue. However, your rank will still be considered for the general quota, and you will be able to secure a seat based on that. It’s important to prepare thoroughly before appearing for the exams. Don’t waste time—make sure to obtain the EWS certificate as soon as possible.

Relationship

My wife doesn't like my choice of gifts. If I buy a sari she doesn't like the colour. If I take her out on a lunch or dinner she will complain about the food. We have been married for 20 years and till date I don't know what makes her happy. If I ask she will say I don't love her. What is this? How will I know if she doesn't say what she wants. Im tired and confused what to buy for our anniversary next week

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I understand that this can be frustrating but how about sit her down and have an open conversation? Let her know that you are not accusing her but you really want to understand what is the matter. Tell her how her constant unhappiness makes you feel. Communication can help a lot more than we imagine.
Hope this helps
