I have a cold sore under my lip that is spreading slowly and has yellow crust when dried. I've been applying an anti-bacterial cream, but I'm unsure if it's really a cold sore. How long have you had the cold sore? Is this stable or getting worse? How old are you? Are you currently using any medications?

I have been experiencing a sore throat for a few days, which has worsened due to a cold. I have been coughing a lot and having trouble speaking regularly. The throat feels full and dry. I also had chills, congestion, and a fever last week. I am 35 years old and have not had chest pain or shortness of breath. I need a doctor's note for missing work today. What can I do for my symptoms and how can I obtain a doctor's note?

I have had a cough for a week that is not improving, despite taking codeine phosphate 5mg every 4 hours as prescribed. I am coughing almost constantly, experiencing sore chest muscles, headaches, and bringing up green phlegm. My COVID-19 test is negative, and I have no shortness of breath or chest pain. I am allergic to sulfuric and have a tight, sore neck from coughing. What could be causing this and what should I do?
