Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have had sinus congestion, ear clogged and post nasal drip cough for about 5 weeks. Ten days ago I took amoxicillin- clay for 10 days and really didn t notice a difference. Two days ago I started on a 6 day sequence of Prednisone and I am wondering how long it will take to name twice a difference?
Hi Thanks for the query to H C M . Sinus congestion , ear clogging , post nasal discharge , all these symptoms may be due to some sort of allergy . When such patient visit to my clinic I prescribe some anti allergy drugs like monteleukast+levocetrizine , once in day and usually patient respond within 3-4 days . Steam inhalation also provide relief in such cases. Hope this will help you . Further , if any question I will reply happily.
