I'm wondering why I've started getting cold symptoms even with just a small amount of sweets since my covid vaccination. I used to eat sweets often without any issues, but now it seems like even a little bit triggers a cold. Could the vaccine have affected my immune response to sweets somehow? Any advice or insights you could share would be really helpful.

I'm dealing with some really irritating throat stuff like a bad dry cough that just won't stop. It's so bad I can't even talk properly. I don't have a cold, just this annoying cough. I know I'm allergic to apples and citrus fruits, but I haven't had those in a long time. I'm starting to think maybe it's the smoke from the mosquito coils I've been using. Could they be causing this cough? I haven't tried any medicine yet, and I'm not sure what to do next. Any advice?

Exposure to mosquito coil smoke could be exacerbating your existing allergy symptoms. I recommend taking an antihistamine such as Cetirizine to help with the allergic reaction. Additionally, you can use a throat lozenge or syrup containing Diphenhydramine (brand name Benadryl) for soothing the throat. Make sure to stay hydrated and avoid further exposure to mosquito coil smoke. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.
