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.

View allI'm a bit concerned about something that happened yesterday. I had a cold and decided to put some tiger balm on my nose to help with congestion because I've heard it's pretty strong. But later, I noticed a tiny bit might have gotten on my lips when I was drinking coffee. Since then, my throat's been kind of burning, and whenever I burp, that burning sensation is there too. Is this something I should be worried about? What would be the best way to treat it?
It sounds like the Tiger Balm might have irritated your throat or caused mild acid reflux. It's not usually dangerous, but to ease the discomfort, you can try drinking warm water or herbal tea, avoid spicy foods, and take an antacid if needed. If the burning persists, consult a doctor to rule out any underlying issues.

I'm having trouble sleeping before 4 am, so I've been taking melatonin. But now I've come down with a fever and took some paracetamol. Can I still take melatonin after that? Is it safe to use both?
Yes, you can take paracetamol and melatonin together. Paracetamol is safe to take for fever, and melatonin can help with sleep. Just make sure to follow the recommended dosages for each.

I'm feeling really weak these last couple of days, and it's got me worried. A while back, I was taking Neurobion Forte for low hemoglobin issues. Do you think it would be okay for me to start taking it again, maybe one dose after lunch for the next 15 days? I'm just not sure if it's the right move and would love your take on it.
Can be taken If weakness persist then visit physician
