I burnt my right hand badly with oil 2 days ago and went to an emergency hospital in Spain. They gave me cream, wrapped it up, and prescribed painkillers, including a jab. I was told to go to another doctor but was refused due to lack of a European Health Insurance Card. What should I do next? Also, what should I do after removing the bandages tomorrow? The pain has nearly gone, but there is blistering beneath the bandages.

I have a persistent stomach bloat problem and Dr. Carmen Barnes suggested using the probiotic Saccharomyces boulardii. However, I researched and found that it is mainly used for diarrhea-related issues, which I do not have. What should I do?

I have been experiencing symptoms of a cold, allergies, or sinusitis for the past two days, including post nasal drip, a scratchy throat, occasional sneezing and coughing, and worsening congestion. I have taken Coricidan D with Acetaminophen, an antihistamine, Mucinex tablets, doubled my Vitamin C intake, and increased hydration, but the coughing has worsened. I now have a runny nose, a dry, hacking cough, and a slight chill and headache. What additional treatments can I try for my symptoms, such as cough suppressants or other over-the-counter medications?
