I've been dealing with a fever for a couple of days, along with a cough and a cold. I started by taking Crocin Advance, but then switched to taking Nicip Plus. I feel a little better, but I'm still feeling kind of feverish. Is there anything else I should be doing or taking, or do I just need a bit more time to recover?

Increasing height after growth plates have closed (around 18-25 years old) is challenging.

Available medications and supplements claim to increase height, but their effectiveness and safety are questionable:

  1. Growth hormone injections: Only prescribed for growth hormone deficiencies, not for general height increase.
  2. Ashwagandha: May help with overall health, but no conclusive evidence supports its height-increasing claims.
  3. Speed Height capsules: Lack scientific evidence and may contain untested ingredients.

Consult a healthcare professional or an endocrinologist for personalized advice. They can help you:

  1. Assess your growth potential
  2. Identify underlying growth-related issues
  3. Discuss safe and evidence-based options

I'm on my 13th day without being able to smell or taste anything, and my nose is still blocked. I tested positive for COVID ten days ago and haven't had symptoms like fever or breathlessness since day one. I've been taking Azithromycin 500 for five days, along with Montek, Limcee, Zincovit, and vitamin D weekly. I'm feeling just like I did on day onenothing's improved or gotten worse. A doctor suggested I take Ivermectol once daily for three days and Doxy 1 LDR twice a day for five days. Should I go ahead with this? My oxygen levels are between 97 and 99. What do you think?

I've been dealing with a cold, sneezing, and a constantly runny nose every day, which has been pretty frustrating. I recently tried the Pankaja Kasthuri Breathe Eazy syrup, and I noticed some improvement, which was a relief. I'm wondering if it's safe and effective to continue using this syrup for a longer period, and if so, do you think it's okay to order a couple more bottles? I'm just a bit concerned about whether it's addressing the root of the problem or just easing the symptoms. Any advice on this would be really appreciated.
