I'm really worried and need some advice. I've been dealing with strep throat for about a week and a half, and my right tonsil is super swollen. I've also been getting pain in my ear. Last Thursday, they said I had a sinus infection, but they didn't check my throat for strep back then. I just started taking amoxicillin today, two doses so far, but after the first one, I took a nap and woke up with this chest pain on the upper right side when I breathe. Is this normal or something I should be concerned about?

View allI've been sneezing a lot, dealing with a bad cold and coughing. My fever's been bouncing between 98.9 and 100.0. Do you think it's okay to take Sinarest and Cetrizine at the same time? How often should I be taking them?
While Sinarest (a combination of antihistamine, decongestant, and pain reliever) and Cetrizine (an antihistamine) can provide relief from cold and allergy symptoms, taking them together may increase the risk of drowsiness, dry mouth, and other side effects; however, if you still want to take them together, the typical dosage is Sinarest 1 tablet 3-4 times a day and Cetrizine 1 tablet 1-2 times a day, but please consult your doctor

I've been taking Practin 4mg and now I feel like I'm sleeping all day. Is this going to make me weak or damage my health?
Taking Practic (4mg) might make you feel sleepy and cause you to sleep for extended periods, but short-term use is unlikely to cause significant weakness or health issues. However, prolonged use or disrupted sleep patterns can lead to fatigue, so its important to manage how and when you use it

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.
