I'm really not that great at English, so bear with me. Anyway, about five days ago, I started feeling this chest tightness and had a lump-in-the-throat kind of feeling. I checked online and decided to drink a bottle of Smirnoff Mule vodkait works as my soda substitute. It helped a bit, though I could still feel a bit of tightness, but not as bad as before. So now, three days later, I'm feeling this discomfort in my lower left rib cage and my back, but there's no pain when I press on the area, and it disappeared after 24 hours. Right now, it's more about discomfort on the left side of my throat when I swallow, near my Adam's apple. I haven't had a fever since last week, either. Could you guide me on where I might be able to have a general check-up around the BGC or Pembo Makati area?

View allSo, I caught this bad cold and sore throat a few days ago after traveling, probably because of the weather change. I seem to always get hit with a cold when the weather shifts. I started taking Joshanda Hamdards a couple of times a day since it's helped me in the past. But my cough wasn't getting better, so I switched to Ambrolite D and cetzip cetrizine. While the cough improved, the throat pain didn't, so I swapped Cetzip for Montek LC, which I've used before and heard is better. Now Im 3 days into these meds, with 2 days on Cetzip and 1 on Montek LC, Ambrolite D for a day, and Joshanda for about 2 days. My coughs better, but my throat pain's still there and might even be a bit worse; at least there's no fever. I'm wondering if I should take something else for the throat pain or if I should just keep going with what Im taking and for how long?
It seems like you are managing your symptoms well. To further address the throat pain, you can consider adding an analgesic and anti-inflammatory medication like Tab. Diclofenac 50mg twice daily after meals for 3-5 days. Additionally, you can continue with the following medications for a few more days: - Montek LC (Montelukast + Levocetirizine) once daily in the evening for a total of 5-7 days - Ambrolite D (Ambroxol + Dextromethorphan) syrup 10ml three times a day for a total of 5 days Make sure to stay hydrated, get plenty of rest, and avoid irritants like smoke. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it would be best to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

I've been dealing with a case of chickenpox from July 27th to August 12th and got back to my regular routine after that, even though I still had scars and felt a bit weak during the day. Sometimes I felt totally exhausted, but I just ignored it. Now, on August 27th, I'm feeling really weak with a 103 fever, heavy breathing, body aches, and some digestion problems. Should I be worried that these are related to chickenpox, or is this something different?
Chicken pox take 2 weeeks to heal in your case you got cured,the only thing is weakness due to infection,consume healthy diet and take adequate rest for that,and the fever that you are complaining about might not be related to chicken pox,that could be due to weakness,take dolo 650 three times in a day and atek rest,if its becoming worse,visit Physician for appropriate managemnet
