Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
How Can Chest Congestion Along With Cough And Sinusitis Be Treated?
My husband and I had the horrible flu in Feb. and have been sick every since. We were on Bactrium for 2 weeks and was not getting better and went and got antibiotic shots and steroid shots and pres. for Amoxicillin. I am doing way better but he is now on Doxy-cycline, Astelin nose spray and cough syrup. He is congested, coughing and sinus drainage. I checked his lungs and there is congestion on the right side with wheezing. No fever. What next?
As per the presentation of your husband`s condition, it sounds to be lower respiratory tract infection, which requires evaluation with an x-ray chest and further management in accordance to that only.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Purva Patel
