Shit like this happens, when you crash into a randy girl,
you wear a condom but still perform french kissing during missionary position..

Sad indeed.

Tuberculosis for your enemy.

Go to gbagada General and do a free test, and if negative, get the vaccine asaply.

As I dey so, vaccine full my body.

Hepatitis vaccine I dey there

TB vaccine I dey there.

I dey wait HIV and syphlilis and Gono vaccine make those ones drop..

Raw with wifeee is good. But for a fling, condoms could be a joy stealer

Hi nairlanders, I need your help.

I started having cough seven days ago and I as well took some over the counter medications to sooth it (Erythromycin, [Augmentin and a liquid one) . But it seems while I take the medications, the cough worsens especially at night. The cough is very dry and doesn't produce anything and it's mostly triggered by a funny sensation at the back of my throat.

I don't really experience any other symptom apart from loss of appetite.
I'm afraid of going to the hospital to avoid being kept in the isolation center for the suspicion/fear of covid.
Could this truly be Covid?
What should I do?

Mods, please my post needs a wide view.
Why will you take the bolded antibiotics for cough.
The following are what you supposed to do.
1: Run a test for malaria and typhoid
2: If you have the above, treat it according with the right antibiotics and antimalarial drugs
Not abusing the antibiotics and causing yourself harm.
3: Buy septrin and take as prescribed
4: Stay hydrated. Drink lots of water.
5: Take some salt water.


Stop abusing antibiotics. It will make your immune system to be very weak and your body will start responding to some antibiotics and show them as resistance. Can't work for you anymore.

Getting isolated & treated for Covid or dying at home, which would you prefer?

I hope you choose rightly.

You can try steaming. Get menthol oil or eucalyptus oil or their ointment from a pharmacy, boil about 1 litter of water and pour into a narrow small bucket, add about 2 spoonfuls of the oil or a reasonable amount of ointment into the water and immediately cover your head over the steaming minty water with a big towel. Keep on breathing in the steam with nose and mouth for upto 10 minutes. You can do it morning and night while still taking your medication. It is magical. But a doctor is still a doctor.

Do face or body steaming. I also experience it atimes. Put a water on pot and set it on fire on gas or stove. As it boils, cover yourselve with a wrapper without putting anything on. Stay there for upto 20 minutes and allow the steam hit ur chest. You have to endure it. Do it for 5 days and thank me later

I had a similar experience a few weeks back. The medications given didn't work. But someone recommended I take TomTom and bitter kola together and it worked well for me. You can also mix ginger,garlic, lime and organic honey together, it works for dry cough.

Laryngitis
Laryngitis is when your voice box or vocal cords in the throat become irritated or swollen. It usually goes away by itself within 1 to 2 weeks.

Check if you have laryngitis
Laryngitis usually comes on suddenly and gets worse during the first 3 days.

The main symptoms are:

a hoarse (croaky) voice
sometimes losing your voice
an irritating cough that does not go away
always needing to clear your throat
a sore throat

So you would rather infect other people than stay in isolation. Yet, you will be one of the first to label others as selfish. Go and get yourself checked. Whatever is disturbing you, hospital is the best place to seek help. And the earlier the better

Unproductive cough is also known as dry cough where the patient doesn't produce sputum

While a cough is said to be productive when there's substantial sputum production

oh I see! I just learnt something new.

It could be covid, TB or something else. Or maybe nothing. But you'll never know till you visit the clinic. Remember early diagnosis is the key.
