Suggest Medications For Sever Cold With Lumps In The Throat

Hello, I have been fighting a cold for about four weeks now. My throat is swollen. I feel like I have a lump in my throat. I am on Doxycycline for a week now and no change. It bothers me every time a swallow. Not sure what is really going on with me. I do not have a fever and my throat is not sore. I am getting sinus headaches but the antibiotic is not helping.

* This seems in relation with adenoid enlargement following respiratory
infection most likely .

* Need to get another group of antibiotic ( as macrolide or cephalosporin
with your doctor for better coverage .

* Additionally gargles with salted lukewarm water added peppermint oil
3 times a day will improve faster .

Hope this clears your query .
