I've been experiencing a fever with a lot of shivering. It started last evening, and I took Crocin at night, but early this morning, I had really intense shivering again and took Dolo 650. I'm concerned about what's causing this and whether I should be doing something different to feel better. Is there something specific I should keep an eye on or maybe go see a doctor?

I'm really worried about my friend who smokes a lot. Do you have any suggestions on how he could quit smoking? Also, he doesn't eat much and is really thin. What can he do to gain some weight in a healthy way?

To help your friend quit smoking, I recommend using Nicotine replacement therapy. He can try Nicorette gum or patches to help reduce cravings. Additionally, he can try prescription medications like Chantix or Zyban to help with withdrawal symptoms. It's also important for him to seek support from a counselor or join a smoking cessation program for additional help and motivation. To address his concern about not eating much and being thin, he can try consuming calorie-dense foods like nuts, avocados, and nut butter. He can also try drinking protein shakes or smoothies to increase his calorie intake. Additionally, he should focus on eating frequent small meals throughout the day to help with weight gain.
