I'm curious about how long I should avoid smoking after getting the Covishield vaccine. Also, is there anything I should know about drinking alcohol after vaccination? One more thing, what if I happened to smoke right after getting the shot?

I'm really concerned because I've had this dry cough for about a week now, and for the last three days, the hiccups just won't stop. I've tried some medicines and home remedies, but nothing seems to be working. Any idea what's going on or how I can get rid of these hiccups? I'm feeling a bit worried.

I'm experiencing colds and some mild pain on both sides of my ribs. It's weird because even though I feel cold, I'm sweating a lot; maybe it's because the weather's hot? Could you help me figure out what's going on with me?

I'm really worried because someone I know tested positive for Covid and had symptoms. But after about 5 days, the symptoms went away. Do we really need to do another Covid test now, or is it okay to skip it since theyre feeling better? I'm just unsure if there's a risk, so some guidance would be really helpful.
