Question 1

My dad is 59 and has diabetes. He's had a fever for the past 8-10 days and just tested positive for COVID-19. Though he hasn't had any breathing issues so far, his temperature has been normal for the last 36 hours. He takes Cetanil T every morning and Glycomet SR. Right now, he's very weak and has a dry cough. I'm really worried and don't know what to do next. I'm from Nimta, Kolkata. Could you please guide me?

Accepted Answer

try giving him nutritious food. take syrup ascoril twice a day for 5 days

Question 2

I'm going through a bit of a rough patch physically and am seeking advice. Recently, I've been feeling shortness of breath both when I'm walking and even at rest. My throat is dry and hoarse, maybe because of a cold? I'm really not sure. I've been feeling feverish, but my temperature is normal, and I'm experiencing body pains while feeling super sleepy all the time. I'm supposed to get my second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine soon, but with all these symptoms, is it safe to go ahead with the vaccine?

Also, about 10 days ago, I accidentally ran into a closed glass door and got hurt on my forehead and nose. Although I didn't experience any vomiting, since then I've felt feverish and my eyes have been aching. I had trouble sleeping for a few days, so I started using clonazepam about three days ago, but I stopped two days ago, yet I'm still feeling overly sleepy.

I need to get my second Covishield vaccine dose because I have to travel abroad on the 28th. I came to India on November 28th, and my RT-PCR was negative at the time. Could all these symptoms be linked to the incident with the door, or is something else going on that's causing the shortness of breath? Looking for some guidance.

Accepted Answer

you cannot take vaccine of you are having these symptoms

Question 3

I'm a bit worried after getting my blood test results which show that my CRP level is 1.6 mgL. I've read that this is considered a moderate risk, but I'm not exactly sure what it all means. Could you help me understand more about CRP and whether there's anything to be concerned about with my health?

Accepted Answer
