I've been dealing with a throat infection and have a pretty bad headache. My eyes are burning too. I just wanted to ask if it's okay to use Zerodol-P for this?

View allI've been having some swollen lymph nodes on the left side of my neck for about a month, and now I'm also noticing them on the right side. They're all at the back of my neck. I thought they'd go away, but they haven't and seem to be popping up in new spots. Now there are three in total. What should I do? Please help me out.
I'm sorry you're feeling this way, but it's really important to speak with a healthcare professional to discuss your options. A doctor can guide you on the best approach for your condition and provide the support and treatment you need. Please reach out to a medical professional for proper advice and care.

I recently got a haircut and accidentally ended up with a small cut from the barber's scissors. I'm really anxious about whether this might transmit HIV. Could scissors carry the virus like that?
The risk of HIV transmission through a minor cut from barber scissors is extremely low, as HIV cannot survive for long outside the human body, and the virus is not transmitted through casual contact or minor cuts; however, to alleviate concerns, consider consulting a doctor or getting a HIV test after the window period (3-6 months) for peace of mind.

I've been dealing with a cold, runny nose, and a slight fever since this morning. Now I've lost my sense of smell and taste. Should I be worried? Does this sound like COVID or just a regular flu? And how long might it take for my taste and smell to come back? Would love some advice.
Losing smell and taste, combined with cold, runny nose, and slight fever, could be indicative of COVID-19, but it's also possible with other viral infections like the common flu; to determine the cause, consider getting a COVID-19 test, rest, stay hydrated, and use over-the-counter medications to alleviate symptoms; your sense of smell and taste should return once the infection resolves, usually within 7-14 days.
