My mom just recovered from COVID-19, and yesterday we had some blood tests done, including D-dimer, LDH, and ferritin levels. The results showed the D-dimer is 585, LDH is 233, and ferritin is 401. What precautions should we take now? Can you please give some advice?

I'm really worried because I've been taking paracetamol every 5 hours like they told me, but it's the third day now and I still don't see any improvement in my dengue fever symptoms. Could you suggest anything else I might try to get this under control?

It takes some time for the fever to come down.Take paracetamol as prescribed and drink 3-4 litres of water everyday. Keep checking your platelet count regularly and if there is drastic fall in the count then immediately contact your doctor again for further advise

I've been feeling really unwell lately. I caught a fever from the cold weather, and to make matters worse, I ended up eating some ice cream. While I was asleep, my family turned on the cooler, and the room got way too cold. So now, I woke up with this nasty cold, a splitting headache, and my fever's just gotten worse since then. What should I do to get better?

don't take cool items
