Can you tell me if it's okay to have golgappa when I've got a sore throat and a cold? I'm worried it might make my throat feel worse. Is it safe, or should I avoid it?

It's best to avoid golgappa during a cold or throat pain. The spicy and cold ingredients can irritate the throat, potentially worsening discomfort or inflammation. It's advisable to stick to soothing, warm foods for better relief.

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.

Should not be a cause for concern. If you develop any new symptoms, contact your nearest healthcare provider for further evaluation.
