Question

I've had this lymph node that got swollen after a fever a couple of years ago, and I used to press it a lot back then. I just recently got tested for HIV and VDRL, both came back negative, and I feel good overall, like my weight's normal and all. Do you think the swelling could be from pressing it too much back then, or could there be something else going on that's more serious?

Question

I've been really worried because I lost my sense of smell around October 14th or 15th. I got tested on the 16th and my ct value came back as 27. I've been isolating since the 15th, and I haven't had any other symptoms. My oxygen, pulse, and temperature have all been normal, and thankfully my sense of smell has returned. I'm just wondering, when is it safe for me to come out of isolation?

Question

I'm trying to understand if it's okay for someone who's generally in good health to start taking Zincovit tablets every day to boost their immunity, especially with everything going on with the Covid pandemic. Is it safe to use these daily, or could there be any side effects I should be aware of?
