What Causes Sore Throat And Rashes On The Neck?

I ve been on a 10 day regime of Amoxicillin (2xday) for 6 days now. It seemed to clear up the sinus infection pretty good but then since yesterday I ve had a terribly sore throat and now a rash all over my neck. I m still taking the Amoxicillin but am wondering what the heck is going on now? is it a weird reaction to the medicine (which I have never had an issue with before)? Or, do I have something different now that the Amox won t handle?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Consume plenty of liquids to maintain hydration. Balanced nutritious diet with avoidance of excess sugar , oily , non veg , spicy, dairy fat , junk foods , artificial sweeteners. Gargles with salted lukewarm water added peppermint oil 3 times a day. Deep breathing exercises , walking in fresh air , YOGA help to recover faster. Avoid exposure to dust , pollens ; if necessary use triple layer face mask. You can take cefadroxyl twice a day for five days, you can take paracetamol twice a day for five day you can Rantac D twice a day for five day , give salbutamol twice a day for five days. Avoid smoking or any form of tobacco consumption. Avoid stress , anxiety. Tessalon pearls 3 times a day. Basil leaves , turmeric powder in boiled skimmed milk , pure honey, chamomile tea are herbal recovering agents. Consult later your doctor if required for further evaluation with lab tests , x-ray, chest & detailed management.
