I'm a bit worried because I got the Covaxin shot yesterday morning, and later in the evening, I ended up cutting myself on an iron door. Is it okay if I take the tetanus shot today or tomorrow? I'm concerned if getting the tetanus shot so soon might affect the efficacy of my Covid vaccine. What should I do?

My sister's been dealing with a dry cough for the last couple of days, and she's been taking Benadryl dry cough syrup, but it doesn't seem to be helping much. Should we try something else, or do you think we should give the syrup more time to work? Is there anything else we can do to ease her discomfort?

Continue to take Benadryl, and consider starting a course of antibiotics if her cough is accompanied with fever. You may also try some antihistamines to help with any allergic component of her symptoms.
