Detailed answer....
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
I have read your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms suggests that you are suffering from sore throat which is a viral infection.
Normally there is no need of any antibiotic to treat this condition.
Treatment involved is use of tablets like paracetamol or DOLO ( which you are taking ) whenever you have high fever or bodyache.
You can take them every six hourly if required.
For pain in throat you can do warm saline gargles 2-3 times day,drink hot drinks,avoid cold drinks and avoid smoking.
You can suck strepsils or dequadin losenzes also for soothing effect on your throat.
You should be all right with these measures in next 2-3 days.
In case your pain throat and fever doesn't settle in next 72 hours or if they increase,then consult a doctor for visual inspection of your throat and other necessary investigations,if required.
I hope it helps,however you are most welcome to revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck
Thanks
