Is it okay to masturbate four days after getting the COVID vaccine? I'm really worried if there could be any negative effects on the vaccine's effectiveness or if it might cause any harm. Is there anything specific I should be cautious about during this period?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
There is no evidence to suggest that masturbation can harm the vaccination efficacy or cause any problems. Just ensure proper hygiene practices to prevent any infections.

View allI'm a 40-year-old woman, and last week I had a viral fever. I had a CBC blood test afterward, and my ESR level is 36. I've also been experiencing frequent headaches. Could this be related to my ESR level being higher? Are there any specific foods or diets I could follow to help reduce the ESR level?
Elevated ESR can be a non-specific indicator of inflammation in the body, which could be due to various reasons including infections, autoimmune diseases, and other inflammatory conditions. In your case, the viral fever you had could have contributed to the elevated ESR level. However, it is important to investigate further to determine the exact cause of the elevated ESR and your persistent headaches. To help reduce inflammation in the body and potentially lower ESR levels, you can consider incorporating anti-inflammatory foods into your diet. These include foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids (such as fatty fish like salmon), fruits and vegetables high in antioxidants (such as berries, spinach, and kale), nuts and seeds, and whole grains. Additionally, maintaining a healthy weight, staying hydrated, and avoiding processed foods and excessive sugar intake can also help in reducing inflammation. For your persistent headaches, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare provider to determine the underlying cause and appropriate treatment.

I've been dealing with vitamin D and B12 deficiencies for about a month now and it's causing me some issues. I've noticed that I don't have much of an appetite and Im having trouble with digestion, like my motions aren't normal. I also feel really tired and my joints are aching. What could be causing all these symptoms, and what should I do about it?
Considering your Vitamin D and B12 deficiency, lack of appetite, digestion issues, tiredness, and joint pain, consult your doctor about taking supplements, and also focus on dietary changes, such as incorporating Vitamin D-rich foods like fortified dairy products, mushrooms, and fatty fish, and Vitamin B12-rich foods like dairy, eggs, and plant-based milk, while also addressing digestive issues through probiotics, fiber-rich foods, and adequate hydration.
