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 feeling pretty worried because I have a sore throat and just noticed some red bumps at the back of my mouth. I've had a sore throat plenty of times, but I never checked inside my mouth before, so Im not sure if these bumps are normal. Ive also got a cough and a bit of a stuffy nose. Does this sound like something I should be concerned about?

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I'm a bit confused about how to take the tablets my doctor prescribed. Should I swallow them with water, or just let them dissolve on my tongue? I've been on them for three months now, and I just want to make sure I'm doing it right.

Evening temperature fluctuations can be puzzling.

I'm curious about the lymph nodes in my neck. The doctor said they're within the normal range, but I've noticed what I thought was a supraclavicular lymph node. The doctor mentioned it was actually cervical. How high up from the collarbone would a supraclavicular lymph node typically be?

Ideally thats not possible,visit ENT doctor for evaluation and cause of swelling
