Para thphi AH 180, and S. Para thphi BH 180, with the malaria parasite being negative. After the consultation, I was prescribed Taxim 200, Paracetamol 650, Femotodine 40, and Pan 40 to take for seven days. Now that I've completed the course, I'm still experiencing full body aches, a burning sensation in my stomach, a low-grade fever, and symptoms of dehydration and anxiety. I'm really worried and not sure what to do next. Should I take the medication again or consult the doctor another time? My diet mainly includes rice with buttermilk, fruits, and milk. What would you suggest?

I just ate some food and then found a dead lizard in the vegetable compartment of my fridge. I'm a bit worried about what to do now. Is there anything specific I should be doing to make sure everything's okay? Would this have any health implications? Any advice would really help.
Immediately discard the contaminated food and thoroughly clean and disinfect the fridge, especially the vegetable compartment, with soap and warm water to prevent the risk of salmonella or other bacterial infections; also, wash your hands thoroughly and monitor your health for any symptoms like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or stomach cramps, and seek medical attention if you experience any adverse reactions.
