Hey, I'm a bit concerned and could use some advice. My wife and I, both 35, went through mild Covid symptoms recently and thankfully, we're negative nowit's been about three weeks. During our treatment, we didn't take Aspirin or any other blood thinners. Should we consider taking any blood thinners now that we're recovering? Any guidance would be really helpful.

    • Discuss with your doctor to evaluate any personal risk factors for blood clots.
  2. Monitor Symptoms:

    • Be alert for signs like leg pain, swelling, chest pain, or shortness of breath.
  3. Focus on Recovery:

    • Stay active, hydrated, and follow general post-COVID care guidelines.

Routine use of blood thinners post-mild COVID-19 is generally unnecessary unless advised by a healthcare professional.

I've been dealing with this fever for over a week and already consulted a doctor. They had me do a Widal test, and the results were at S. Thphi O 1160, S. Thphi H 1160, S. Para thphi AH 180, and S. Para thphi BH 180, with the malaria parasite being negative. After the consultation, I was prescribed Taxim 200, Paracetamol 650, Femotodine 40, and Pan 40 to take for seven days. Now that I've completed the course, I'm still experiencing full body aches, a burning sensation in my stomach, a low-grade fever, and symptoms of dehydration and anxiety. I'm really worried and not sure what to do next. Should I take the medication again or consult the doctor another time? My diet mainly includes rice with buttermilk, fruits, and milk. What would you suggest?

Interpretation of your widal tests are borderline. Can be a baseline titres as india is endemic or an evolving disease. need to know more about the symptoms, the course of illness and the details of the test.
