I'm really worried because my mom has had a dry cough for the past four days along with a sore throat. I found out that some people in her office tested positive for COVID, even though she wasnt in direct contact with them. Should we consider getting her tested for corona?

Based on your symptoms and test results: *Possible Connections* 1. *High BP and headache*: High blood pressure can cause headaches, but in your case, the headache might be related to the hypoplastic sinuses. 2. *Hypoplastic sinuses*: This condition can cause increased intracranial pressure, leading to headaches. *Next Steps* 1. *Consult your physician*: Discuss your test results and symptoms with your doctor as soon as possible. 2. *Neurology consultation*: Your doctor may recommend consulting a neurologist to further evaluate the hypoplastic sinuses and their impact on your headaches. 3. *Continue BP medication*: Adhere to your current BP medication regimen until your doctor advises otherwise. 4. *Monitor symptoms*: Keep track of your headaches, BP readings, and any other symptoms to share with your doctor.

I'm really worried about my mom who's been dealing with lymph nodes issues for two years now. We've done a bunch of tests like the histopathology and TB PCR, and luckily, they all came back negative for TB. There's no fluid in the lymph nodes, and she hasn't shown any symptoms like fever, weight loss, or tiredness. So, her doctor concluded it's not TB and put her on Clavam 650, Diclomol, and Montex LC for five days. I totally forgot to ask the doctor about how many Clavam 650 tablets she should be taking each day. Should it be one tablet or two? Could you please help me figure this out?
2 tablet

I can't really feel any warmth when I touch my body, but two different thermometers are showing that I have a fever of 101F. Should I be worried about this?
Its possible to have a fever without feeling hot, especially if your body is adjusting to the elevated temperature. However, a fever of 101F suggests your body is fighting an infection. If you experience other concerning symptoms like chills, fatigue, or discomfort, it's best to consult a doctor for further evaluation.
