I've been dealing with a cough for the past couple of days, but oddly enough, I don't have any cold symptoms. Can you recommend any medicine, or should I think about seeing a doctor?

Question

I've been dealing with a cough and cold for over two weeks now. My GP advised me to check my blood, and it turns out my ESR is 30 and AEC is 480. He told me to take Diethylcarbamazine and Chlorphenaramine. Is it safe to take these medications along with my current thyroid medication, Atorvastatin, and Fefol? I'm just a bit nervous about mixing them all.

Question

So, I was playing with my dog and he accidentally scratched my arm with his nail. It's just a bit red, nothing major. Should I think about getting a tetanus shot for this, or am I overreacting?

Question

I'm trying to find a trustworthy general physician in Bangalore who can give me a comprehensive medical certificate. It's important because I need it to join the Basic Mountaineering Course at HMI Darjeeling. Any recommendations or advice on how to go about this?
