I've been feeling a weird pain in the bone area near my chest, just to the left of the breastbone. It really hurts when I press on it, and sometimes I get this sudden shock-like pain when I breathe. When I don't press it, there's usually no pain. What could be causing this?

Hey, I recently recovered from dengue and it's been about two weeks since I was discharged from the hospital. I'm feeling healthy now, but I'm wondering if it's okay for me to start drinking alcohol or if I should wait a bit longer. Also, is it alright to smoke again, or could that cause any problems?

Yes you can consume Alcohol nut in limited quantity.
