I'm struggling with a mouth ulcer that's been bothering me for three days now. Could you recommend a tablet or something to help with it? I'm really looking for some relief.

I recommend using "Bonjela" gel for mouth ulcers. Apply a small amount directly to the ulcer up to 3 times a day after meals and at bedtime. Additionally, you can take "Ibuprofen" 400mg tablets as needed for pain relief, up to 3 times a day after meals. Make sure to drink plenty of water and avoid spicy or acidic foods to help with healing.

I'm feeling really weak and lazy after recovering from typhoid. It's like I'm always tired and can barely keep my eyes open. I even get these mild headaches now and then. Is this normal after typhoid, or should I be worried? What can I do to feel better?

Following typhoid recovery, it's common to experience lingering weakness, fatigue, and laziness due to the body's depleted nutrient reserves and the lingering effects of the infection; to alleviate these symptoms, ensure adequate rest, hydration, and nutrition, including foods rich in iron, vitamins B12 and D, and protein
