I'm dealing with a mild cold and cough, and I had a fever yesterday. The local doctor prescribed me Lizolid, but the pharmacy gave me Linezolid instead. I'm wondering if they are the same thing. Could you help me out here?

View allI took a testoviron injection yesterday and I'm not seeing any rashes, but the injection site is pretty painful. What should I do about this? Any advice would really help!
It's normal to feel some pain at the injection site after a Testoviron shot. You can gently apply a warm compress to ease discomfort and ensure the area stays clean. If the pain worsens or swelling occurs, consult your doctor.

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

I'm wondering about how long the protection lasts from tetanus toxoid shots. I never got the tetanus vaccination as a kid, but I did get 24 tetanus toxoid shots over two years, in 2016 and 2017. Is that level of vaccination enough to keep me protected, or should I consider getting another shot? Whats the typical duration of protection in cases like mine?
