I'm dealing with a cold right now, and I notice I'm sweating a lot even though I don't have a fever. Is it typical to experience excessive sweating with just a runny nose and cough? My cold symptoms seem to be improving, but the sweating is still intense, even when I'm not doing anything. Should I be concerned about this?

Excessive sweating without fever, accompanied by a cold, can be attributed to your body's response to the infection, hormonal changes, or overproduction of mucus, and in your case, it may be a sign that your body is fighting off the infection,

View allI tested positive for COVID back on May 15, but luckily, I started feeling better by May 25, and my sense of smell and taste came back. But for the past three days, I've been feeling really off. I had a headache, a bit of a sore throat, and my eyes have been irritated. Do you have any advice on what might be going on and what I should do next?

I've been running a fever since last night and took sumo tablets twice, but it hasn't gone away. Should I start taking an antibiotic along with the sumo, or just stick to the sumo for now? I'm not sure what's best.

I'm dealing with a sore throat that's been persistent for two days now, and I've tried betadine gargles three times a day along with some apple cider vinegar, but nothing seems to be helping. I visited the pharmacy and was given curam 1g to take twice a day for a week, along with clarinase, even though I have no congestion or whiteness in my throat. Should I be taking these medications, or is there something else you recommend? I'm really curious about what the best step forward is.
Curam is a combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid, which is commonly used to treat bacterial infections, including throat infections. Additionally, you can continue taking Clarinase as prescribed. Clarinase contains loratadine and pseudoephedrine, which can help relieve symptoms such as throat irritation and congestion. Make sure to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed, even if you start feeling better before the 7 days are up. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider.
