I'm dealing with a cold, fever, and a throat infection right now. My fever is pretty mild, so I'm wondering if it's alright to take Sinarest along with Paracetamol Dolo. What do you think?

View allI've been dealing with a lot of strange symptoms lately and I'm getting really worried about whether this might be omicron. So it all started with a sore throat a couple of weeks ago, which went away with medicine, but then I got a dry cough right after. The cough stopped, but since then, I've had this crazy muscle pain all over my body. I switched doctors and did a CBC test; the results showed my WBC and platelets were a bit high. The new doctor gave me amoxicillin, pacimol, and zecal active. The body pain faded, but now I have a cold and a lot of wet coughing. I skipped pacimol once, and that muscle pain is back with a vengeance. I haven't done a test yet because my exams are coming up and I'm always on the move in Mumbai local trains, although I wear a double mask and I'm fully vaccinated. Still, could this be omicron? Should I just take something like limcee, steam, or pcm at home? What steps should I follow to get better?
It's possible that you have a viral infection (possibly Omicron or another strain of flu), but you should ideally get tested to confirm. At-home measures such as rest, hydration, steam inhalation, and PCM can help manage your symptoms. Keep your doctor updated if symptoms persist or worsen. Lastly, double masking and social distancing are important, especially since you're traveling in crowded areas. Keep monitoring your symptoms, and consult your doctor if you're unsure about any medications or treatments.

My dad has been dealing with covid and it's been about 6 days now. He's running a fever, peaking at 100F every 24 hours, and his oxygen levels are fluctuating between 93 and 97. He's had a cough even before this, but it seems to have gotten a bit worse since the covid diagnosis. While he's quarantined at home and mostly okay, he does mention feeling short of breath at times. What should we be doing to make sure he's on the right track health-wise?
regular breathing exercises, drink warm water, check BP and blood sugar regularly
