I'm feeling pretty anxious about some symptoms I've been having. I've got a stuffy nose, some pain in my nose, and my throat's been really irritated. I'm really worried about whether this could be COVID, or if it's just the common flu or allergies. How can I tell the difference?

I'm really worried about my 17-year-old sister. She's had a fever for a week now, and the doctors said it's just a normal viral fever. But it's not getting better, so we got her CBC reports done, and it shows her WBC count is low. Why does the WBC count drop in viral infections? Could it be a sign of something more serious?

I've been dealing with viral fever-like symptoms for the last three days and even after getting three injections and taking some large tablets from my doctor, there's been no major improvement. I'm feeling really heavy, off-balance, experiencing vomiting and gas in my stomach. I'm starting to worry if my doctor is just in it for the money. Can someone genuinely help me out? I'm getting really impatient with all this discomfort.

My brother just found out he has typhoid fever. Can you help me figure out a good diet plan for him? Like, what foods should he eat and what should he stay away from? Also, any tips on how we can keep everything hygienic during this time would be really helpful.

For typhoid fever, it is important to follow a specific diet to aid in recovery. Here is a suggested diet chart: - Foods to be taken: Easily digestible foods such as boiled vegetables, fruits, yogurt, soups, porridge, and well-cooked rice. - Foods to be avoided: Spicy foods, oily foods, raw vegetables, and undercooked meats should be avoided. - Hygiene tips: It is important to maintain good hygiene by washing hands regularly, drinking only clean and boiled water, and avoiding street food. In addition to the diet, it is important for your brother to take prescribed antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin or Azithromycin as per the doctor's recommendation. Make sure he completes the full course of antibiotics as prescribed.
