I'm a little worried about cellulitis treatment. My partner has been on Augmentin 625 twice a day and Chymoral forte three times a day for the past three days. Should we be seeing a specific kind of doctor for this, or is a general practitioner okay? Also, do you think this medication regimen sounds right, or should we be doing something differently? Any advice would be super helpful.

Hey, I'm a bit concerned and could use some advice. My wife and I, both 35, went through mild Covid symptoms recently and thankfully, we're negative nowit's been about three weeks. During our treatment, we didn't take Aspirin or any other blood thinners. Should we consider taking any blood thinners now that we're recovering? Any guidance would be really helpful.

So, my mom is 66 years old and she got her second dose of the Covishield vaccine. But then, like 8 days later, she tested positive for COVID. She's better now, thank goodness. Since she's gotten both shots, I'm wondering if she should get another type of COVID vaccine after 3 months, or is she good to go with just the Covishield doses?

I'm currently on Augmentin 650mg and have been taking it twice a day for the past 5 days. I'm almost fully recovered now, but I'm unsure if I should continue the course for 5 days or stretch it to 7 days. What's the best approach here?

continue taking 2 more days
