I'm really worried about my mom who just tested positive for COVID yesterday with a ct value of 16. She's been having a dry cough and had a fever a couple of days ago. Our family doctor has prescribed some medicine, and her oxygen level has been steady at 99 throughout today. Should we stick with the current meds, or is it better to see another doctor for her COVID treatment?

View allI'm a bit concerned and could use some advice. A couple of nights ago, I was just hanging out on my balcony, and a bat landed on my right toe for a second or two. I quickly moved it away, and there's no sign of a bite or a scratch, but I'm still worried. My leg's been having this mild pain and tingling, and my head kind of feels swollen inside. I did visit a doctor, and she assured me there's no evidence of a bite or scratch, so rabies isn't a possibility. I'm still feeling anxious, though, and would love your thoughts on this.

I'm really worried about my dad. He just spent the past week dealing with a bad cough, cold, and viral fever, and his temperature even got up to 102.4 degrees. Now hes feeling super weak, dizzy, and a bit nauseous. What should we do about this?
Your father's symptoms of weakness, dizziness, and nausea could be due to post-viral fatigue. To help him feel better, he can take Paracetamol for fever and body aches. He can also take Ondansetron for nausea. Additionally, it is important for him to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If his symptoms persist or worsen, he should seek medical attention.

I've been getting a fever at night after feeling cold for the past couple of days, but it seems to go away by morning. Is this something I should be worried about? What could be causing it? Would love to get some insight into what's going on.
You may be experiencing viral syndrome, or developing a viral fever. If your fever is high grade (above 100 degrees Fahrenheit), and associated with chills, you may need to undergo a blood test to rule out diseases like malaria and denggue. Drink plenty of fluids and take sufficient rest.
