I'm experiencing some pain under my left underarm, and it's really uncomfortable, especially when I sneeze or cough. I'm getting a bit worried about what might be causing this. Could it be something serious, or is it maybe just a muscle strain? What should I do?

I'm wondering, after how many days of having a common cold can my mom safely get her second dose of Covishield? It's already time for her to get it, but she recently had a cold that's mostly under control now, though she's still got a bit of a cough. Is it okay for her to take the vaccine now, or would it be a problem if she delays the second dose because the vaccine isn't available?

take after symptoms gets relieved. you can delay second dose of vaccination

I've been dealing with a cough and cold for over two weeks now. My GP advised me to check my blood, and it turns out my ESR is 30 and AEC is 480. He told me to take Diethylcarbamazine and Chlorphenaramine. Is it safe to take these medications along with my current thyroid medication, Atorvastatin, and Fefol? I'm just a bit nervous about mixing them all.

Yes,continue same treatment as advised by the physician.
