What Causes Tiredness, Cold And Breathing Difficulty?
I am having a hard time with my breathing and I feel tired all the time and cold even when its warm outside.A few years ago I had somthing like this and I had to have two pints of blood. The DR said I was severly anmic could this be happening again?
Understanding your concern. As per your query tiredness, cold and breathing difficulty because due to streptococcal infection leading to strep throat and it could be due to sinusitis. I would suggest you to take warm saline gargles and take over the counter anti histamine like benadryl . You should take steam inhalation with vaporizers. You should take antibiotics like Amoxicillin for 5 days. Avoid spicy, hot and sharp food substances. It may also occur due to viral infection,which will get normal by its own . You should take anti-inflammatory painkiller Ibuprofen for relief from pain and inflammation. Chew a Vitamin C pellet daily. You should avoid cold carbonated beverages. Visit ENT specialist once and get throat culture and sputum test done to find out exact cause and start treatment accordingly. For now continue doing gargles and drink one spoon of honey mix with glass of lukewarm water. You should take steam inhalation along with vaporizers.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon. Best wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
