I'm suddenly experiencing chills in the afternoons and at night for the past two days, but I don't have a fever. My diet and activities are normal, except when the shivering hits; it lasts about fifteen minutes. What medication can I take today? I'm planning to see a doctor tomorrow. What should I do in the meantime?

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 currently on Augmentin 650mg and have been taking it twice a day for the past 5 days. I'm almost fully recovered now, but I'm unsure if I should continue the course for 5 days or stretch it to 7 days. What's the best approach here?

My partner tested positive for COVID-19 on January 19th. After isolating for almost 10 days, her test came back negative. Is it safe for us to start living together again and be intimate?

Since your partner tested negative after isolating for 10 days, it is generally safe to resume living together. However, it's important to ensure she's fully recovered and free of any lingering symptoms. If you're still concerned, it's always a good idea to consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
