I've just gotten over typhoid and I'm out of the hospital now, but I'm still feeling super weak, especially from my chest down to my stomach. It's a really noticeable kind of weakness. Can you help me understand why this might be happening?

It's common to feel weakness after recovering from typhoid, especially in the chest and stomach area, as your body is still healing. The infection and treatment can take a toll on your energy levels, and it may take some time for your strength to fully return. Rest, proper nutrition, and hydration will help support your recovery.

I'm a software engineer, and I have to commute 60 km a day, which leaves me feeling tired all the time. I've been considering taking Revital capsules to help with my energy levels. Is it safe to start taking them on my own, or should I consult a doctor first?

Revital Capsule contains ginseng extract, multivitamins, folic acid and various other minerals. It is considered safe for use without a physician's prescription. However, if you notice any symptoms developing after taking the medication, you may be allergic to one or more of its ingredients.

Can I take multivitamin tablets every day? I'm worried about any long-term side effects. Also, if they are safe, is there a particular brand you would recommend?

When there is no indication why to take them,consume balanced dite thats enough,here is no immediate side effects as such,but better not to continue without doctors advice
