I'm feeling unwell today with a headache and mild fever, and it's only getting worse because I'm also feeling cold and dealing with acidity. Is this something I should be worried about, and what can I do to feel better?

.you need to have food on time..do not wait till hunger pangs.maintain proper time. Divide your meal time to small proportions so that you dont over eat..secondly drink lots of water. ..atleast 8-10 glasses per day . thirdly.. You need to stroll for a min of 15 min after each meal...stress,tension,all these are also factors of acidity...avoid outside food,junk and oily food...better to have gone cooked food for few days..Thank you..For fever and cold I would suggest you to take paracetamo thrice a day..l and also drink water well

I'm a bit worried after getting my covid vaccination yesterday morning. Is it okay if I eat non-veg in the next few days? Some people are suggesting I should avoid it for 5 days. Could you advise on this?

No problem you have it

I've been dealing with a lot of strange symptoms lately and I'm getting really worried about whether this might be omicron. So it all started with a sore throat a couple of weeks ago, which went away with medicine, but then I got a dry cough right after. The cough stopped, but since then, I've had this crazy muscle pain all over my body. I switched doctors and did a CBC test; the results showed my WBC and platelets were a bit high. The new doctor gave me amoxicillin, pacimol, and zecal active. The body pain faded, but now I have a cold and a lot of wet coughing. I skipped pacimol once, and that muscle pain is back with a vengeance. I haven't done a test yet because my exams are coming up and I'm always on the move in Mumbai local trains, although I wear a double mask and I'm fully vaccinated. Still, could this be omicron? Should I just take something like limcee, steam, or pcm at home? What steps should I follow to get better?

It's possible that you have a viral infection (possibly Omicron or another strain of flu), but you should ideally get tested to confirm. At-home measures such as rest, hydration, steam inhalation, and PCM can help manage your symptoms. Keep your doctor updated if symptoms persist or worsen. Lastly, double masking and social distancing are important, especially since you're traveling in crowded areas. Keep monitoring your symptoms, and consult your doctor if you're unsure about any medications or treatments.

I've been dealing with dengue since October 24th and was in the hospital until the 28th. I'm slowly recovering, but my platelets are at 2.76 lakh. I'm still feeling weak and having digestion issues, some joint pain, and gas problems. I'm really worried about how to get back to feeling better quickly. Could you suggest a proper diet plan to help me recover faster? I'd really appreciate it.

Sice your platelet count are increasing no need worry. Have fruits like Papaya and Pomogranate. Drink Plenty of Water and avoid spicy foods.
