I'm on day three of dealing with chickenpox symptoms, and now I'm dealing with constipation too. It might be because I skipped my morning tea. Any advice on how to handle this?

I'm curious if Buscopan can help with reducing body temperature. Would love to know more about this.

Buscogast, primarily containing Hyoscine Butylbromide, is designed to relieve muscle spasms and cramps in the gastrointestinal and genitourinary tracts, but it doesn't directly affect body temperature. Its mechanism of action focuses on relaxing smooth muscles and suppressing secretions, which doesn't inherently influence body temperature regulation.

Got stung by bees last night on my hand, and it swelled and burned for a couple of hours. I used ice, honey, and a baking soda paste, which helped calm it down. By this morning, there's still some pain and swelling, but it's minimal and not very noticeable. I didn't have any allergic reaction to the sting. Should I consider getting a tetanus shot?

you probably don't need a tetanus shot after bee stings. However, if you have any concerns or if the condition worsens (for example, if theres increasing redness, pain, or pus), its always best to check in with a healthcare provider for further advice.
