Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
About 5 days ago I had an ear ache that was quickly followed by a sore throat and fever. I began coughing a few days later after taking some acetaminophen and amoxicillin, believing it was an ear infection. Now my cough is pretty bad, but everything else but the fever has left. What can i do about the cough? I have also been taking mucinex.
I suggest you to take: 1. T. Amoxiclav 500mg for 7 days 2. T. Paracetamole 500mg for 5 days 3. Syrup Mucum for 5 days 4. Salt water gargle 5. Consult your ENT surgeon to rule out the diagnosis and for further treatment
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Indhu Priyadharshini, General & Family Physician
