I got my COVID test done yesterday, and thankfully, it came back negative. However, I've been having this dry cough that's been bothering me a bit. I don't have any other symptoms, but I was hoping you could recommend some good medicine for this dry cough. What do you suggest?

Hey, so my latest health report showed that my SGPT level is 60 and my total cholesterol is at 239. I'm kind of worried about these numbers. Could you tell me how I might be able to control them?

In your case, to control SGPT levels and total cholesterol, you can make some lifestyle changes and consider medication if necessary. For SGPT levels, you can try avoiding alcohol, maintaining a healthy weight, and eating a balanced diet. For high cholesterol, you can try incorporating more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains into your diet, as well as regular exercise. Medications like Atorvastatin can also be prescribed to help lower cholesterol levels. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management.

I'm a bit unsure about how to use these ear drops for wax that I got from the chemist. Theyre called Drep Wax drops, but there's no information on the bottle about how many drops I should be using. Could you let me know how to go about using them?

You can instill 3 drops three times a day,do not attempt to remove the wax by your self,let it come out on its own.
