Question

I'm worried because I've had a throat infection and fever since Sunday morning, which began two days after I went swimming. I'm also experiencing night sweats and a blocked throat when I wake up. I started taking Combiflam on Monday morning, but it's Tuesday night now, and I'm still not feeling any better. Does this sound like something I should be concerned about? Should I be doing anything else to help with these symptoms?

-It sounds like you might have caught a throat infection after swimming. The night sweats and throat block could be signs of an infection or inflammation. Since you've been taking Combiflam, it's helping with the pain, but if the symptoms persist or worse

I'm really curious and a bit concerned about these two tablets my doctor suggestedJetcal K2 and Oxiray Plus. What exactly are they for, and is it okay for someone my age, 55, to take them? Can you help me understand this better?

Question

I'm really concerned about my brother who was diagnosed with Dengue fever yesterday. His platelet count was at 110,000 the day before yesterday, but today it's dropped to 69,000. Even though he seems to be feeling better, I'm worried because the platelet count is declining. The doctor has advised us to keep him at home and rest with fluids like coconut water, but should we be thinking about admitting him to the hospital instead? I'm not sure if we should stick with what our current doctor says or maybe seek a second opinion. What do you think?

Question

I'm trying to find Zevit capsules that my doctor recommended, but they're nowhere to be found online or in local pharmacies. Do you have any idea what I could use as a substitute for this medicine?
