I'm dealing with fever, loose motion, and vomiting since this morning, and I'm feeling so weak I cant even make it downstairs to see a doctor. What could be causing this? Should I be worried and what can I do at home to feel better?

I recommend taking acetaminophen 500mg for fever, loperamide 2mg for loose motions, and ondansetron 4mg for vomiting. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical attention.

I'm having a sore throat that's gotten a lot better over the last couple of days and some discomfort in my chest. I've also been coughing a bit, mostly like I'm trying to clear my throat. I got back from Delhi about 12 days ago and I do have anxiety and GERD. I'm a smoker but I've cut down a lot recently. I haven't had any fever or cold symptoms though. Could this still be corona?

I'm a 40-year-old woman, and last week I had a viral fever. I had a CBC blood test afterward, and my ESR level is 36. I've also been experiencing frequent headaches. Could this be related to my ESR level being higher? Are there any specific foods or diets I could follow to help reduce the ESR level?

Elevated ESR can be a non-specific indicator of inflammation in the body, which could be due to various reasons including infections, autoimmune diseases, and other inflammatory conditions. In your case, the viral fever you had could have contributed to the elevated ESR level. However, it is important to investigate further to determine the exact cause of the elevated ESR and your persistent headaches. To help reduce inflammation in the body and potentially lower ESR levels, you can consider incorporating anti-inflammatory foods into your diet. These include foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids (such as fatty fish like salmon), fruits and vegetables high in antioxidants (such as berries, spinach, and kale), nuts and seeds, and whole grains. Additionally, maintaining a healthy weight, staying hydrated, and avoiding processed foods and excessive sugar intake can also help in reducing inflammation. For your persistent headaches, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare provider to determine the underlying cause and appropriate treatment.
