I'm really worried because my husband tested positive for COVID two weeks ago. He went into home quarantine right away and also had a CT scan done of his chest. Right now, he only has a cough and some congestion. There's no fever or trouble breathing so far. Is there something specific I should be doing or looking out for to make sure he's handling it okay?

View allI'm wondering if Ceflus CV and Gudcef CV 200 are the same medication. I was supposed to take Ceflus CV, but it wasn't available, so I got Gudcef CV 200 instead. Are they interchangeable, or should I be concerned?
Ceflus CV and Gudcef CV 200 contain similar ingredients but may differ in the exact dosage strength of Cefixime.

I've been experiencing this strange wriggling sensation in my anus at night, and it's starting to worry me. I'm aware pinworms are mostly common in kids, but my anus gets really itchy, and I'm just not sure. I'm feeling embarrassed about seeing a doctor. Is there a way I can confirm if it's pinworms? Are there any over-the-counter medications that might help?
It's possible that you may have pinworms, as they can affect adults too, though it's more common in children. The wriggling sensation and itching at night are typical symptoms. To confirm, you can try the "tape test" (pressing a piece of clear tape to your anus in the morning before bathing) and check for eggs under a microscope. Over-the-counter medications like mebendazole or albendazole can help, but it's best to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.
