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 allMy mom just recovered from COVID-19, and yesterday we had some blood tests done, including D-dimer, LDH, and ferritin levels. The results showed the D-dimer is 585, LDH is 233, and ferritin is 401. What precautions should we take now? Can you please give some advice?

My mom got the Covishield vaccine for Covid19 about a week ago, and even after 7 days, she's still having a swollen, painful, and tight feeling where she got the shot. We've tried using Thormophob tube and given her zero Dolphy, but it doesn't seem to be getting much better. I'm really worried and could use some advice on what tablet or cream might help. Also, she has Type 2 diabetes, so I'm not sure if that's affecting how she's healing. What can we do to help her feel better?

I've had a fever for the past three days, with my temperature fluctuating between 98.6 and 102. I get really cold in the evenings, probably because of the sweating, and I'm worried it's making the fever worse since I don't change my shirt soon enough. I don't have any body, joint, or muscle pain, but my nose is a bit runny and my throat hurts slightly. Could this be something serious, or is there anything specific I should do to get better quickly?
Your symptoms, including fever, sweating, chills, runny nose, and slight throat pain, suggest a possible viral upper respiratory tract infection, such as a common cold or flu; however, to rule out other causes like bacterial infections or pneumonia, consider consulting a doctor for a physical examination, and possibly, a rapid antigen test or chest X-ray.
