I'm dealing with a vitamin B12 deficiency and I'm not sure when the best time is to take my vitamin B12 capsules. Is there a specific time of day like morning or night that would be more effective, or does it not matter? I'm curious to know what you think.

View allI was diagnosed with COVID on Tuesday the 20th and started the meds. I've been getting a fever every day since the 22nd, like every 20 hours or so. At first, I took Dolo, but on the 23rd and today, the 24th, I could only get my hands on Meftal 250 DT. I'm worried because it's an NSAID and I've taken it for two days straight. Will that cause me any stomach trouble? I'm trying to get Dolo again in the meantime. Do you think I should be taking any precautions?
it might be gastritis, start tablet pantop for 5 days , once a day

I'm dealing with a cold and a runny nose for the last 15 days, and I've been taking Cheston Cold. It seems to help, but only for a day, and then the symptoms come back. Could you help me understand why this might be happening and what I can do to properly get rid of it? Its getting frustrating!
Avoid common irritants such as cigarette smoke and sudden temperature changes. Drink plenty of water. Use a humidifier. Try nasal saline sprays or rinses. If the runny nose is a persistent, watery discharge, particularly if accompanied by sneezing and itchy or watery eyes, your symptoms may be allergy-related and an over-the-counter antihistamine may help...take OTC antipyretics along with above... If symptoms persists more than 3 days even after OTC medication consult physician they will help you.

I'm feeling a bit worried because I've noticed a few cervical lymph nodes. Earlier today, I experienced a sensation like an insect bite, and now it feels like a lymph node might have burst. Is it possible for a lymph node to actually burst? What could cause that to happen, and what symptoms should I be on the lookout for?
Drinking lemon water before a fasting test is generally not recommended. Here's why: _Fasting Test Requirements_ Fasting tests, such as blood glucose or lipid profile tests, require you to abstain from food and drinks for a specified period, usually 8-12 hours. _Why Avoid Lemon Water?_ 1. _Caloric intake_: Lemon water contains calories, which can break your fast and affect test results. 2. _Blood sugar fluctuations_: Lemon water may cause a slight increase in blood sugar levels, which could impact test results, especially for blood glucose tests. 3. _Acidity_: Lemon water's acidity might stimulate digestion and potentially affect test results. _What to Drink Instead?_ If you're thirsty before a fasting test, you can drink: 1. _Plain water_: Water is calorie-free and won't affect test results. 2. _Black coffee or tea_: These beverages are calorie-free and won't break your fast.
