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.
hello, my boyfriend has a small chest couch, he is also prone to get head aches and cold sores. are these symptoms all related? also, he is a smoker and had an infection in his mouth but was never treated and it just went away. thank you for your time.
The headache and cold sore are related to upper respiratory tract infection with some sort of virus or bacteria most likely. My guidelines at present: - Allow him more liquids intake as hot coffee or else - Should avoid exposure to cold wind, protect ears with ear plugs and cotton - Refrain from consuming aerated drinks, dairy items - Avoid exposure to dust or pollen, smoking if consuming - Decongestant with analgesic action as diphenhydramine with acetaminophen - Inhalation of vapors of boiled water added Karvol capsules
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
