Is there any connection between CRP levels and getting the COVID vaccine? And if there is, what CRP level should I be looking out for? Also, are there other things I should keep an eye on before getting vaccinated?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
CRP (C-reactive protein) is not directly related to covid vaccination. However, it can be used as a marker of inflammation in the body. There is no specific CRP value that determines eligibility for covid vaccination. Before taking the vaccine, it is important to check for any allergies to vaccine components, previous adverse reactions to vaccines, and any current illnesses or infections. It is also recommended to inform the healthcare provider about any medications being taken, especially immunosuppressive medications.

I'm a bit worried because I had dengue fever 5 days ago, and when I left the hospital, my platelet count was at 150,000. But yesterday, it dropped to 140,000. Is this kind of drop normal, or should I be concerned about it?
A slight decrease in platelet count from 150,000 to 140,000 five days after discharge from dengue fever is not uncommon, as platelet counts can fluctuate during recovery; however, it's essential to monitor the trend and watch for any further significant drops or symptoms like bleeding or bruising

I've been dealing with a fever for the past three days, along with a bit of a cold and a headache. My eyes hurt, and I can't seem to get any sleep because of it. What could be causing these symptoms, and what can I do to feel better?
If the area around your eyes and face is painful, you may be suffering from a bout of sinusitis. Visit a physician to get a prescription for some antibiotics, nasal decongestants and some multivitamins. You should also try home remedies like steam inhalation, hot compress on your sinuses, use of a neti pot for nasal irrigation, and use of a humidifier for your bedroom. Drink plenty of fluids and take rest.
