Can I Take Tacky and Benadryl Together Safely?
Don't take Tums and Benadryl together. Tums can help with heartburn or other stomach problems, while Benadryl might be used for itching caused by allergies. However, if both drugs are taken simultaneously it may result in side effects such as dizziness, sleepiness and confusion. For better performance without health risks ensure they have been taken few hours apart.

Could my recent fever be from an STD?
You may have acquired an infection while away. A temperature and eruption on your leg may indicate an infection rather than a heat rash or an STD. The trouble with swallowing earlier could have been your system’s way of trying to fight off this infection. You must go to the doctor as soon as possible and let them examine you so they can give you the right treatment for it and make you feel better.

Why Am I Experiencing Acne, Insomnia, Headaches, and Weakness?
Your face acne could relate to an unhealthy diet. Trouble sleeping may result from stress or anxiety. Headaches might stem from not finishing your previous medication course.

To improve, try eating healthier foods, managing stress levels, and resuming headache treatment. However, it's important to consult a doctor for personalized guidance and support.

Can I Get Chicken Pox Treatment?
Chickenpox is a common virus. It may consist of fever, weariness, and a red rash filled with small red bumps. It is spread by finger touch or breathing in the air and is not easy to avoid. To get rid of the virus, treat it with rest, beverage consumption, and dipping in a cool bath, which soothes the itchiness. The risk of infecting oneself by not scratching is even more scary. It might go away by itself in about a week or two.

Could I get rabies from sharing calf's water?
If a calf did not show any rabies symptoms in the past month and a half after being bitten by a dog, it is unlikely to have rabies. Some of the symptoms of rabies in animals are burrowing in the mouth, changes in behavior, and slow swallowing. By your mistake to rinse your mouth with that same water, you have the least possibility of getting rabies. It is significant that you take care of and properly clean any wounds. If some symptoms occur like fever, pain, or difficulty swallowing, consult a doctor.
