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.

I'm curious about what's going on with my throat. I noticed it started feeling sore after I drank some cold water yesterday. Is that a common reason for a sore throat? And do you have any suggestions on what medicine I should take to help it feel better?

Here are some home remedies to help alleviate nasal congestion and breathing difficulties: 1. Steam Inhalation: Inhale steam from boiling water or a humidifier to loosen mucus. 2. Nasal Saline Rinse: Use a neti pot or squeeze bottle with saline solution to clear nasal passages. 3. Honey and Lemon: Mix equal parts honey and lemon juice in warm water to soothe the throat and ease congestion. 4. Eucalyptus Oil: Add a few drops to your diffuser or inhale directly from a cloth or tissue. 5. Warm Compresses: Apply a warm, damp washcloth to your face to loosen mucus. 6. Drink Plenty of Fluids: Stay hydrated to thin out mucus and promote drainage. Consult a doctor if symptoms persist or worsen.
