I've been dealing with a running nose and fever for the last few days, and now I've got a sore throat and cough since last night. These seem like symptoms of viral fever, right? Can you recommend any homemade remedies? The weather here is terrible, so I can't get to a doctor.

I recommend taking over-the-counter medications such as acetaminophen for fever and sore throat. You can also try using honey and lemon for your sore throat. Additionally, steam inhalation can help with your runny nose and cough. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest.

I've been taking glutathione capsules for a while and I usually have a glass of milk before bed. Is it alright to take them together at night? I'm just wondering if there's any issue with how they might interact.

Sometimes, I feel like I'm always fighting this weird cycle. I start feeling feverish with a mild fever and all achy after 6 pm most days, even though my mornings are perfectly fine. It's like after I eat, this sickness just settles in. I've been dealing with this on and off for about two years now. It lets up for a few months and then comes right back. I've had tests done like CBC, ESR, typhoid, and even checked for vitamin D, but nothing's showing up. I'm curious and kinda worried about why this keeps happening. Any ideas on what might be causing this?
