I'm dealing with a really annoying dry cough and a blocked nose that's making it impossible to sleep at night. I went to see a doctor, and they gave me some medicines like Doxin to take twice a day, along with some other tablets, but it feels like things are only getting worse. I'm not sure if the meds are supposed to work this way or if I should be worried. Could something else be going on?

I'm really worried because I've been having a fever, headache, vomiting, and chills since yesterday. I'm thinking it might be food poisoning from eating out or maybe it's malaria. Can you suggest what I should do, or recommend a good doctor around Tilak Nagar, Delhi?

ask her to take a tab. grandem MD once a day to be kept in the mouth as it dissolves in the mouth and starts quick action. after that, drink lots of water. she may be having either a viral fever, urinary tract infection, or gastroenteritis . drink lots of water, take paracetamol 650mg thrice a day after food for controlling fever.

Got stung by bees last night on my hand, and it swelled and burned for a couple of hours. I used ice, honey, and a baking soda paste, which helped calm it down. By this morning, there's still some pain and swelling, but it's minimal and not very noticeable. I didn't have any allergic reaction to the sting. Should I consider getting a tetanus shot?

you probably don't need a tetanus shot after bee stings. However, if you have any concerns or if the condition worsens (for example, if theres increasing redness, pain, or pus), its always best to check in with a healthcare provider for further advice.
