I got my first vaccine shot on May 5th. I noticed some swelling at the injection site right away, and the pain was manageable for four days. But today, my entire arm is really hurting, and it's become unbearable. I resumed taking my alprazolam today - could this pain be because of that?

I'm dealing with a really frustrating dry cough and a bit of a fever, and on top of that, I have some back pain too. I'm wondering if MUCOCID Decongestant tablets might help with all these symptoms. Is it a good idea to use them for what I'm going through, or should I be looking at something else?

Mucocid Decongestant tablets, containing pseudoephedrine, can help relieve dry cough and fever, but for back pain, you may need additional or alternative medication

I tested positive for Covid 19 back on May 11th, and my CT value was 23 at that time. I've been feeling completely fine and symptom-free for the past 9 days, and my sense of smell is back. When would be the right time for me to get tested again?

Since you've fully recovered and have no symptoms for the last 9 days, you generally don't need to get retested unless required for specific reasons, such as travel or a medical procedure. If you're feeling fine and not in a high-risk situation, you can safely move forward without further testing.

I recently finished an anti-rabies vaccine course back in September 2016, but today, on November 14, 2016, I got bitten again by my young dog on the lower lip. There's a small wound with some bleeding involved. The dogs just 5.5 months old and has all his vaccinations up to date. Do I need to get vaccinated again? What should I do now?

YES its better get two booster doses at an interval of 2 weeks.
