Is acupuncture effective in the treatment of COVID-19 related cough?

There is no data to support acupuncture in any covid-related symptoms. However, I do not see any harm either

I have a rectal concern?

Thanks for the question. Rectal burning has many different causes including infections, anal fissures, etc. It should be looked at and a full work up performed.

About my stomach?

Keep a food diary. You may have Irritable Bowel Syndrome. You should have a full work up.

Alcohol and Prozac/Wellbutrin?

Thanks for the question. The combination of these medicines and alcohol is not very well studied. However, I don’t see any issue with one or two drinks periodically.
