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 dealing with a sore throat that's been persistent for two days now, and I've tried betadine gargles three times a day along with some apple cider vinegar, but nothing seems to be helping. I visited the pharmacy and was given curam 1g to take twice a day for a week, along with clarinase, even though I have no congestion or whiteness in my throat. Should I be taking these medications, or is there something else you recommend? I'm really curious about what the best step forward is.
Curam is a combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid, which is commonly used to treat bacterial infections, including throat infections. Additionally, you can continue taking Clarinase as prescribed. Clarinase contains loratadine and pseudoephedrine, which can help relieve symptoms such as throat irritation and congestion. Make sure to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed, even if you start feeling better before the 7 days are up. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider.

I accidentally took Allegra 120mg once in the afternoon and then again at night. Should I be worried about that? Are there any serious side effects from taking it twice like this?
If you mistakenly take two doses of Allegra 120mg in a day, there may be an increased risk of side effects such as drowsiness, dry mouth, and headache. It is important to stick to the recommended dosage of one tablet (120mg) per day to avoid potential adverse effects. If you have taken two doses in a day, monitor yourself for any unusual symptoms and consider skipping the next dose to prevent further complications.
