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.

Can taking paracetamol help with a stomachache? I'm not sure if it's safe or effective for this kind of pain. What do you think?

Paracetamol is not typically recommended for stomach aches, as it's primarily used to relieve headaches, fever, and body aches; instead, consider over-the-counter antacids or acid reducers like ranitidine or omeprazole, but if your stomach ache persists or worsens, consult a doctor to determine the underlying cause and appropriate treatment.

I've been dealing with a sore throat and this strange sensation between my chest. It was really intense when it first showed up, but then the next day, I felt completely fine. Now that sore throat is back, and my chest feels tight again. Any idea what might be going on or what I should do about it?
