Being Treated For Sinus Infection. On Augmentin. Had Cough. Why Dizzy?
I am being treated for a sinus infection since Sunday. I am on Augmenton (sorry for the spelling) and I am feeling a little better. However, I had a horrible cough that kept me awake at night. Now the lower back of my head is very soar and is giving me slight dizzy feeling it also hurts when I lean over forward. Any thoughts...Its very annoying and is slowing my work down.
Hi welcome to HCCForum. You must be using antibiotic AUGUMENTIN and other supporting drugs . if supporting grugs are not used the recovery and relief of symptoms may take time. hence pain is continued.
the antibiotics you are using might not be sensitivi to the organisms of your infection. When the infection is more it will reach the middle ear and cause vertigo. (dizziness)
Besides i advise some diet recomendations as avoid taking fruits juices cooldrinks ice cream and ice water as these may cause allergy and increase the secretions thus cause uncontrolled infection. Avoid exposure to the rain cool weather air coolers and air conditioners.
Wishing for a quick recovery. thanks for calling.
