I've been having this sharp pain in the right side of my chest, kind of around the upper chest near the ribs or maybe just below. It started yesterday morning and sometimes it feels like a stabbing sensation when I breathe. These cramps come and go all day, and I must feel them around 35 times a day. The rest of the time, there's just this discomfort. I'm getting pretty worried. What could this be, and should I do something about it?

I've just gone through my body check-up results, and they show that I have a vitamin D deficiency. The level is at 10.7, and my lymphocytes are a bit high at 42. I've been having occasional lower back pain and Im worried it might be connected to the vitamin issue. Do you think I should start taking a vitamin D supplement? And should I be concerned about the lymphocytes level?

For your vitamin D deficiency, I recommend taking a supplement such as "Drisdol" at a dosage of 1000-2000 IU per day. This will help increase your vitamin D levels and may alleviate your lower back pain. As for the high lymphocyte count, it is important to determine the underlying cause. I suggest further evaluation by a healthcare provider to investigate possible infections, autoimmune disorders, or other medical conditions that could be contributing to the elevated lymphocytes.

I'm dealing with a sore throat that's been persistent for two days now, and I've tried betadine gargles three times a day along with some apple cider vinegar, but nothing seems to be helping. I visited the pharmacy and was given curam 1g to take twice a day for a week, along with clarinase, even though I have no congestion or whiteness in my throat. Should I be taking these medications, or is there something else you recommend? I'm really curious about what the best step forward is.

Curam is a combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid, which is commonly used to treat bacterial infections, including throat infections. Additionally, you can continue taking Clarinase as prescribed. Clarinase contains loratadine and pseudoephedrine, which can help relieve symptoms such as throat irritation and congestion. Make sure to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed, even if you start feeling better before the 7 days are up. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider.
