Mental health of my Dad
Hi Doctor,
My Dad is having High BP, recently we see that, every few 4-5 days he says n fights my mom has added something in food, rubbed ointment in his mouth while sleeping, tries to marry off my brother to my uncle's daughter, etc, where none of the above is true. Not sure he has any mental problem or just lying? Which specialist to see?
