I've been dealing with a high fever for three days, and it kept staying over 101 and even hit 103.5 at one point before dropping to 99.5 on the same day. I checked in with a doctor and was told to take Dolo 650 and Meftal Forte, which I did. But now, three days later, I'm still feeling super weak, sleeping around 18 hours a day. Some old muscle pains in my left hand have started up again too, which might be from being so weak. I've been taking Neromet, a multi-vitamin, and vitamin C tablets, but they're not helping much. Today I've noticed redness all over my body, which I think could be an allergic reaction to some medication since this has never happened before. What could be going on here?

Hi Sunil, it seems like your body is still recovering from the fever, which is causing the prolonged weakness and muscle pain. The redness could be an allergic reaction to the medication, and it's important to consult your doctor to rule out any severe reactions. Rest, hydration, and monitoring your symptoms closely are key; if the redness worsens or new symptoms appear, seek immediate medical attention.

I'm dealing with a cold and cough and am unsure about what kind of meals would be best to eat right now. Also, I'm trying to avoid citrus fruits, so I'm wondering which fruits would be good alternatives. Can I drink coconut water during this time too?
When having a cold and cough, opt for warm, nourishing meals like chicken soup, vegetable broths, and easy-to-digest foods like rice, bananas, and toast; for fruits, consider alternatives to citrus fruits like apples, grapes, and mangoes, which are rich in vitamins and antioxidants; coconut water can be consumed in moderation, as it provides hydration and electrolytes, but be mindful of its high sugar content.

Chest Pain After Eating _Possible Causes_: 1. _Acid Reflux (GERD)_: Stomach acid flowing up into the esophagus can cause chest pain, especially after eating spicy foods. 2. _Gastroesophageal Junction Disorder_: Abnormal relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter can lead to acid reflux and chest pain. 3. _Esophageal Spasm_: Muscle contractions in the esophagus can cause chest pain, especially after eating. _Relief Measures_: 1. _Sleeping Position_: Lying down can help alleviate symptoms, as you've noticed. 2. _Avoid Trigger Foods_: Reduce or avoid spicy, fatty, or acidic foods that can trigger acid reflux. 3. _Antacids or Acid Reducers_: Over-the-counter medications like Tums, Rolaids, or Zantac can help neutralize stomach acid.
