Suggest Treatment For Severe Sinus Infection
Hi I am a 21 year old female, I had the flu/ a sinus infections for about 3 weeks and then I went to get antibiotics last weekend I was prescribed a 6 pack of antibiotics and this past Sunday I took 2 as it was indicated for the first dose. I spent the entire night throwing up. The next day I spent the entire day in bed as I felt like I was super tired my stomach was really crampy and upset, and it is really sore under my left breast from coughing (I think I pulled a muscle or bruised my rib) and I had no energy. The next 2 days I woke up feeling the exact same and today still feel exhausted and can t do anything. Could this be from my pulled muscle or bruised rib? Or is it something else
