I've been dealing with a sore throat and cough, and I've already tried taking Alex and Moxikind, but it hasn't gotten any better, and it's been a whole week now. Could you recommend another medicine or treatment option that might help? I'm getting a bit worried about it.

You have to start Antibiotics after examination, visit ENT doctor for the same and do salt water gargling for better results

I'm a bit worried because I accidentally pricked my index finger with a safety pin that wasnt new and it started bleeding a little. I put some Dettol antiseptic on it, but Im concerned if this could lead to tetanus. Is this something I should be worried about?

Can you tell me if it's safe to masturbate after getting vaccinated? I'm a bit worried if it might affect the vaccine's effectiveness since I read somewhere that there's no connection between these two processes. Is that true?

Masturbation does not interfere with the efficacy of the vaccination.
