I'm really worried because my mom has had a dry cough for the past four days along with a sore throat. I found out that some people in her office tested positive for COVID, even though she wasnt in direct contact with them. Should we consider getting her tested for corona?

View allI've got this sharp, stabbing pain on the left side of my chest, but it only happens when I sleep on my left side. If I sleep on my right, there's no pain. It just started last night. I've also got a mild flu going on but no fever, and my stomach seems okay even though I have these on and off digestion issues like irritable bowel. Should I be worried about this chest pain, or is it likely linked to the flu or something else?

I'm a 32-year-old guy and I've been dealing with something odd for a while. My body, especially my hands, always feel really hot, and people often ask me if I have a fever when I shake their hands. This has been going on for many years and I'm starting to get worried. Could there be something going on with my health? Any advice would be appreciated.
it sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of hyperhidrosis, which is excessive sweating that can make your body feel hot. I recommend trying anticholinergic medications such as Glycopyrrolate. This medication can help reduce excessive sweating and make you feel more comfortable. Remember to stay hydrated and avoid triggers that may worsen your symptoms.

Can you tell me if it's safe to take four Tiniba 500 mg tablets all at once, since that adds up to 2000 mg? I'm just a bit worried about such a high dose.
Typical Doses: For infections, Tinidazole is often prescribed in doses like 500 mg twice a day or 1000 mg once a day depending on the condition. Possible Side Effects: Common side effects of Tinidazole can include nausea, metallic taste, dizziness, and headache, which might be more intense with a higher dose. If in doubt, it's always a good idea to clarify with your healthcare provider before taking the medication.
