Question

I've been dealing with a persistent cough for the last 10 days, and I'm really not sure what's going on. Could you recommend a good cough syrup that I can easily find at the pharmacy? I'm getting a bit worried since it's been going on for a while now.

For your persistent cough, I recommend taking Benadryl Cough Syrup. You can take 10ml of Benadryl Cough Syrup three times a day after meals. Make sure to follow the dosage instructions on the label.

Question

I've been dealing with a case of chickenpox from July 27th to August 12th and got back to my regular routine after that, even though I still had scars and felt a bit weak during the day. Sometimes I felt totally exhausted, but I just ignored it. Now, on August 27th, I'm feeling really weak with a 103 fever, heavy breathing, body aches, and some digestion problems. Should I be worried that these are related to chickenpox, or is this something different?
