What is the healthiest sleeping position?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Every individual is different, there is no "one-size-fits-all" position to sleep. One needs to follow what works for their body and sleep needs. Sleeping on left side curling your legs and placing a pillow in between your knees is good for low back, during pregnancy, reduces snoring and acid reflux. Lying on stomach is good for snoring and sleep apnea. Sleeping flat on your back protects the spine, relieves hip and knee pain.

I've been dealing with this constant headache and loose motion for the past 24 hours. The headache's not as bad as it was initially, but it's still there. Should I be concerned or is this just a temporary thing?
-It sounds like you're dealing with a tough combination of symptoms. I'm glad the headache is easing, but persistent loose motions can be draining. It might help to stay hydrated and rest, and if it continues, a doctors advice could be beneficial.

I've got a sore throat that I'm pretty sure is an infection, and my tonsils are kind of swollen too. I've been coughing a bit, but there's no fever. Should I be worried about this, or is there something I should be doing to feel better?
Consider consulting a primary care physician or an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist for a proper evaluation, as your symptoms suggest a possible viral or bacterial throat infection, and they may prescribe antibiotics if necessary, or recommend symptom-relieving measures such as gargling with salt water, using a humidifier, and taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen.
