I've got this sudden sharp pain in my left rib when I breathe in, and it started while I was just sitting at my desk at work. It's been half a day, and it hasn't gone away. I can't take a full deep breath. Do you think this will just go away on its own, or should I be worried?

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 really struggling with a dry cough and it's quite annoying. Are there any effective cough syrups you could recommend to help with this? I've tried a couple from the pharmacy but haven't had much luck, so any suggestions would be appreciated.
For dry cough, you can try using Delsym (dextromethorphan) syrup. The recommended dosage for adults is 10 mL every 12 hours. Another option is Robitussin Dry Cough (dextromethorphan) syrup, with a recommended dosage of 10 mL every 4 hours. Always follow the instructions on the label and consult with a healthcare professional if you have any concerns.
