Should I Visit The ER For Cough Along With Head Congestion And Shortness Of Breath?
During the end of April I began with seasonal allergies for which I usually only suffer mildly. Since then, my right ear has become blocked for almost a month, I have a cough which is attempting to rid me of my congestion, and my head is severely congested, recently I have times of feeling short of breath. None of which are improving despite first taking Claritin for first month and then Sudafed for the second month. This is making me fatigued and crazy for not being able to hear. Is it time to visit the doctor or do I just need to ride this out?
