Taking Sudafed For Fluid On Ear, Soreness On Scalp, Major Tension Pressure. Thoughts ?
I have been taking sudafed for fluid on ear since Monday. I started out with the weakest variety for 2.5 days and have now been taking the strongest for 2.5 - my symptoms have made little to no improvement. I have soreness on my scalp top of my head and major tension pressure from the back of my head to base if head and even down neck same side. I'm trying to decide if warrants we visit or if take care clinic at 9 am. Your thoughts?

the post nasal drip of sinus falls back blocking the ustachian tubes causing fluid in middle ear
need sinus specific antibiotic short course

sea watr in nose each nose at night to clear bck of throat eustachian tubes and fluid in ear
need analgesic sos for pain
get xray pns ater view and consult ent to treat it to revent further attacks
