Suggest Remedies For Itchy, Sore And Swollen Throat
I have recently had a sinus and ear infection and just finished 7 days on augmentin(?) Within a day of completing antibiotic the drainage continued down my throat and a extremely sore throat began. I can tell I have a lot of drainage and it looks irritated and swollen. No fever and I am feeling better. Is this most likely strepp since their is some redness and swelling? or should I let it run its course??
u should take tablet chymonac (antiinfalmatory) twice a day for 3 days, also take lozenges like Himalaya losenzes, Vick's, etc, so luke warm saline gargles 4 to 5times a day.. u can take azitromycin 500mg for 3 days.. if problem persists consult your doctor
