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?

I'm feeling really off with sweating and shivering, and it's like I can't control it. Then out of nowhere, I really need to go to the bathroom. My forehead feels like it's under a lot of pressure and I'm having difficulty breathing through my nose because it's all clogged up. Do you have any idea what's going on or how I can get rid of these symptoms?

My dad suddenly got a fever last night, and it was at 101. I gave him some medicine, but the fever only went down to 100.4 and stayed like that all night. Now it's shot up to 103, and I tried giving him Dolo 650, but it's not helping. Can you help me figure out what's causing the fever?

I've had a throat infection and fever since the night of the 18th. I've been taking paracetamol and zifi 200, but as soon as the medication wears off, the fever comes back. Can you suggest what other medicine I should consider taking?

It seems like you may need a stronger antibiotic for your throat infection. I recommend taking Augmentin along with continuing paracetamol for fever. Additionally, you can try Betadine gargles for relief of throat symptoms. Remember to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed.
