I've taken three pills of Curam, which I know has 500mg of amoxicillin, for my cold, but now I'm dealing with headaches. I'm kind of worried if I should keep taking them or just stop altogether. What should I do here?

When addressing your headache after taking Curam, consider these key points:

  1. Possible Side Effects: Headaches can be a side effect of antibiotics like Curam, but they might also be unrelated.

  2. When to Stop Medication: Do not stop your antibiotic without consulting a healthcare professional, as incomplete treatment can lead to resistance or incomplete recovery.

  3. Managing Headache: a. Stay hydrated. b. Rest. c. Use over-the-counter pain relief (like paracetamol) if appropriate.

  4. Seek Medical Advice: If the headache is severe, persistent, or accompanied by other symptoms like rash, fever, or swelling, contact your doctor promptly.

  5. Follow-up: Inform your prescribing doctor about any side effects to adjust your treatment if needed.

Your health and safety come first, so if you feel unsure or unwell, reaching out to a healthcare provider is the best step.

I'm getting a bit worried because my body temperature tends to climb up to 99-100 degrees F in the evenings, and this has been happening for a few weeks now. Alongside this, I feel some tiredness in my limbs. I did some blood tests for CBC, Dengue, and Typhoid, but everything came back normal. What's making me anxious is that I've noticed my immunity seems to be lower lately since I'm catching the flu and other infections more frequently in the last few months. Any insights on what might be going on with me?

Since your blood tests for CBC, Dengue, and Typhoid came back normal, it's important to consider other possibilities. Your symptoms could be indicative of a chronic infection or an underlying inflammatory condition. Given your recurrent infections and fatigue, I would recommend considering a consultation with a healthcare provider for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try taking over-the-counter multivitamins to support your immune system. Additionally, you can take a daily dose of Vitamin C (1000mg) and Zinc (25-50mg) to help boost your immunity. Adequate rest, hydration, and a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables can also help support your immune system.
