How soon after recovering from dengue can I start drinking alcohol again? I've been feeling good for about a week now and my vitals are back to normal. Is it safe to have a drink, or should I wait a bit longer?

It is generally recommended to wait at least 2-3 weeks after recovering from dengue fever before consuming alcohol. This allows your body to fully recover and regain its strength. Remember to start with small amounts and listen to your body for any signs of discomfort.

View allI'm really concerned about my test results. My RMP in haematology came back negative, but I'm seeing some strange numbers in the Widal test. The typhi O is at 1160, and the typhi H is 180. Plus, my eosinophils are at 10 in the DLC section. What does all this mean? Should I be worried about these levels?

I'm dealing with a really annoying runny nose from a cold, and I'm wondering if something like Otrivin Oxy or the Vicks inhaler would help clear it up. Have you seen these treatments work effectively for this kind of issue? I've heard mixed things and just want to make sure I'm using the right thing to get some relief.
Otrivin Oxy and Vicks Inhaler can help with a runny nose due to the common cold, but they work differently and provide temporary relief. If your main issue is nasal congestion, Otrivin Oxy might be more effective, but for soothing and easier breathing, Vicks Inhaler can be helpful. Always follow the instructions for use and avoid prolonged use of decongestants like Otrivin. If symptoms persist, consider seeing a doctor.
