Sore Throat, Nasal Congestion, Pain In Ear, Sinus Congestion. Remedy?
I have been sick for almost a week now. At first it started off as a sore throat. Each day brought something new. I had a worse throatache, I have horrible nasal congestion, my ear is in pain, I'm coughing, and today I woke up with my eye crusted over in yellow goop. I have been taking alka seltzer plus for severe sinus congestion and cough and it helps the pain a little but no improvements beyond that.
