I'm dealing with a dry cough and throat infection, and I'm not sure which medication would be more effective. Should I go with Clavem 625 mg or Gudcef 200? I'm a bit confused about which one would be better for my situation. Can you help me figure this out?

Ive been noticing that throughout the day, my palms and feet feel really hot, and other people have even remarked on how warm they get when they touch them. Could you let me know what might be causing this and if theres any treatment I should consider?

You may have an highly active metabolism which can result in feeling hot internally. You should however opt to get a panel of tests done in order to rule out specific illnesses. Recommended tests include CBC, HbA1C, TFT, RFT and LFT. If these reports are normal, there should be no cause for concern.
