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.

View allI'm wondering if fasting is necessary for a Vitamin B12 blood test. I had mine done about 3 hours after lunch, and now I'm second-guessing whether that might have affected the results. Should I think about getting it retested?
A Vitamin B12 blood test does not typically require fasting. It is usually safe to have the test done at any time of the day, regardless of when you last ate. Since you had the test done 3+ hours after lunch, there is no need for a retest. The results should still provide valuable information about your Vitamin B12 levels.

I'm a bit worried because I recently recovered from dengue, which was confirmed on June 20th. Now, 43 days ago, I had a mild fever and headache. Could this be related to dengue in any way?
no

I was supposed to take my azifast 500 pill before dinner, but I ended up missing that and took it after eating instead. Could this lead to any side effects?
Taking Azifast 500 (azithromycin) after dinner instead of before is unlikely to cause significant side effects
