I'm thinking about starting zincovit syrup since I've heard it might help with my weight gain and improve my overall health from the inside. Is it safe to take without a doctor's prescription? Can you share if it could actually help with fitness and if there are any risks involved with taking it on my own?

Zincovit syrup is a multivitamin and multimineral supplement that can help improve overall health and well-being. However, it is important to note that zincovit syrup is not specifically designed for weight gain. If you are looking to gain weight, it is recommended to focus on a balanced diet that includes a variety of nutrient-dense foods. If you are still interested in taking a supplement to support your overall health, you can consider taking zincovit syrup as per the recommended dosage on the packaging.

I'm experiencing some swelling in my left chest, and it's a bit strange because sometimes it hurts when I touch or press it, but other times there's no pain at all. Should I be concerned about this, and what could possibly be causing it?

Left chest swelling and pain upon touch could be due to various reasons such as muscle strain, costochondritis, or even a minor injury. If there is no pain at times, it may indicate inflammation or a musculoskeletal issue rather than a serious medical condition. I recommend taking over-the-counter pain relief medication like ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain and inflammation. Applying a cold compress to the area for 15-20 minutes a few times a day can also help reduce swelling and discomfort. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with a persistent cough for the last 10 days, and I'm really not sure what's going on. Could you recommend a good cough syrup that I can easily find at the pharmacy? I'm getting a bit worried since it's been going on for a while now.

For your persistent cough, I recommend taking Benadryl Cough Syrup. You can take 10ml of Benadryl Cough Syrup three times a day after meals. Make sure to follow the dosage instructions on the label.
