Suggest Treatment For Sore Throat And Nasal Congestion
I developed a sore throat/hoarse voice on Tuesday. Nasal congestion and pressure started Thursday. Red, gunky eye when I woke up Friday morning but redness improved. Today both eyes are red and gunky but redness has not gone away and they are burning/itchy. I am still congested and throat is still sore with hoarse voice. Have been exposed to sick kiddos and students. Take humira injections and Imuran for ulcerative colitis. Is this just a cold to wait out or do I need to contact a doctor?

hello
welcome to healthcare.
since you are on treatment for ulcerative colitis, there is no harm in visiting a doctor.
but to me it looks like uri only. a course of antibiotics, anti allergics shoukd help. dont forget to take steam inhalation,that should ease you with your symptoms
