I've been feeling really unwell lately. I caught a fever from the cold weather, and to make matters worse, I ended up eating some ice cream. While I was asleep, my family turned on the cooler, and the room got way too cold. So now, I woke up with this nasty cold, a splitting headache, and my fever's just gotten worse since then. What should I do to get better?

I'm a bit worried about smoking after getting the Covaxin shot. The nurse told me not to smoke but didn't give me a specific timeframe to wait. Could you clarify how long I should avoid smoking post-vaccination?

There's no specific time frame recommended for waiting to smoke after receiving the Covaxin vaccination. However, it's generally advised to avoid smoking for as long as possible after vaccination, as smoking can weaken the immune system and reduce the effectiveness of the vaccine.
