I was diagnosed with COVID about 16 days ago and spent 3 days in the hospital. They sent me home once my CRP level was below 2. Now, 10 days later, my CRP is at 4.4. I'm taking Medrol 16 mg and Ecosprin 150 mg, but its gone up. Should I be concerned about this increase?

I'm dealing with a viral fever and I'm already on medication. I'm wondering if it's okay to drink milk or if I should avoid it for now. Is milk a good idea when I'm sick?

Yes, you can drink milk during a fever; it provides nutrition and energy. However, if it upsets your stomach or increases mucus, opt for lighter alternatives like soups or warm water. Always stay hydrated and rest well.

I'm experiencing a low body temperature since last night, and I'm having shivers with my body feeling warm and cold at different times throughout the day. I'm also dealing with a sore throat. Should I be worried about these symptoms, and is there anything I can do to feel better?

LRTI

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

I'm a bit worried and could use some advice. I've been feeling this pain on the upper left side of my waist for the past three days, and now I'm occasionally getting dizzy too. It all started after I got back from the gym, so I'm thinking it might be muscular, but it's been getting worse rather than better. For context, I'm a mom to an 11-month-old and recently started working out again. Any idea what's going on or what I should do?

That could be gastritis or muscle cramp,take adequate rest and consume bland diet for a better result.
