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.

Can you drink alcohol after getting the first dose of Covishield? Are there any possible side effects or restrictions on having alcohol after getting vaccinated? I'm just a bit concerned and want to make sure I'm doing the right thing.

I'm wondering if it's okay for an average person like me to take Zincovit and Vitamin C every day? If so, what would be the right amount to take? And if it's not meant for daily use, how long should I actually take these supplements, and what's the dosage during that period?

A normal person can take Zincovit and Vitamin C supplements daily, but it's essential to follow the recommended dosages: Zincovit (zinc, vitamin C, and other minerals) 1-2 tabletscapsules per day, and Vitamin C 60-90 mg per day,

I've been having these mild cold symptoms that seem viral and maybe a bit allergic, like a runny nose and sneezing a lot for the past 10 days. My doctor suggested a blood test, including CRP, CBC, SGPT, SGOT, and Ferritin, to check if these could indicate COVID-19. All my blood test results came back normal except my Basophils Count is at 0, PCT at 0.187, and SGOT (AST Serum IFCC) at 50. I'm curious, is this blood test enough to understand what's going on, or should I consider a RAT for COVID or even a CT scan? I'm feeling a bit unsure about the next steps and would appreciate your advice.
