I'm wondering, after how many days of having a common cold can my mom safely get her second dose of Covishield? It's already time for her to get it, but she recently had a cold that's mostly under control now, though she's still got a bit of a cough. Is it okay for her to take the vaccine now, or would it be a problem if she delays the second dose because the vaccine isn't available?

What's Ambulaxm used for? The doctor has prescribed it to me for 10 days, and Im wondering if thats safe or not.

Ambulax-M is a combination medication used to treat symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) such as abdominal pain, bloating, and discomfort. It contains Mebeverine and Chlordiazepoxide. Mebeverine helps to relieve muscle spasms in the intestines, while Chlordiazepoxide is a benzodiazepine that helps to reduce anxiety and stress-related symptoms that can worsen IBS. The prescribed duration of 10 days is safe for this medication. It is important to follow your doctor's instructions regarding the dosage and duration of treatment. If you have any concerns or experience any side effects while taking Ambulax-M, please consult your doctor for further guidance.

I'm really not that great at English, so bear with me. Anyway, about five days ago, I started feeling this chest tightness and had a lump-in-the-throat kind of feeling. I checked online and decided to drink a bottle of Smirnoff Mule vodkait works as my soda substitute. It helped a bit, though I could still feel a bit of tightness, but not as bad as before. So now, three days later, I'm feeling this discomfort in my lower left rib cage and my back, but there's no pain when I press on the area, and it disappeared after 24 hours. Right now, it's more about discomfort on the left side of my throat when I swallow, near my Adam's apple. I haven't had a fever since last week, either. Could you guide me on where I might be able to have a general check-up around the BGC or Pembo Makati area?
