I've been feeling like my body has a heat problem recently and I'm not sure what to do about it. Can someone give me some advice or suggestions on how to manage this?

My body has heat problem. To reduce body heat, you can try taking Tab. Paracetamol 500mg twice a day after meals. Also, make sure to drink plenty of water, wear loose and breathable clothing, and avoid spicy and oily foods. Additionally, you can try applying a cool compress to your forehead and neck to help lower your body temperature.

I'm really worried and need some advice. I've been dealing with strep throat for about a week and a half, and my right tonsil is super swollen. I've also been getting pain in my ear. Last Thursday, they said I had a sinus infection, but they didn't check my throat for strep back then. I just started taking amoxicillin today, two doses so far, but after the first one, I took a nap and woke up with this chest pain on the upper right side when I breathe. Is this normal or something I should be concerned about?

it might be due to gastritis which is a side effect of Amoxicillin.
