Is it normal for my dad to shiver and have a high fever after a CECT scan? His temperature is around 102 degrees Celsius, and we've given him an antiallergic medicine and paracetamol, but it hasn't lowered. Could this be a dangerous reaction, or will he feel better soon? I'm worried because he's diabetic and has high blood pressure with a reading of 156100. Should I take him to the hospital, or wait it out?

I'm waking up every morning with a fever and feeling really tired, and my head feels heavy all the time. I'm starting to worry a bitwhat could be causing this, and should I be concerned enough to see a doctor?

Even if ejaculation didn't occur, there's still a risk of pregnancy due to pre-ejaculatory fluids. If your partner has missed her period, take a home pregnancy test (HPT) or consult a healthcare provider for a blood test. If the test is positive, consult a healthcare provider or a family planning clinic to discuss options, including medical termination of pregnancy (MTP) or prenatal care. Time is of the essence, as MTP options may be limited after a certain gestational age.

I'm going through a bit of a rough patch physically and am seeking advice. Recently, I've been feeling shortness of breath both when I'm walking and even at rest. My throat is dry and hoarse, maybe because of a cold? I'm really not sure. I've been feeling feverish, but my temperature is normal, and I'm experiencing body pains while feeling super sleepy all the time. I'm supposed to get my second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine soon, but with all these symptoms, is it safe to go ahead with the vaccine? Also, about 10 days ago, I accidentally ran into a closed glass door and got hurt on my forehead and nose. Although I didn't experience any vomiting, since then I've felt feverish and my eyes have been aching. I had trouble sleeping for a few days, so I started using clonazepam about three days ago, but I stopped two days ago, yet I'm still feeling overly sleepy. I need to get my second Covishield vaccine dose because I have to travel abroad on the 28th. I came to India on November 28th, and my RT-PCR was negative at the time. Could all these symptoms be linked to the incident with the door, or is something else going on that's causing the shortness of breath? Looking for some guidance.

you cannot take vaccine of you are having these symptoms
