How To Get Rid Of Nausea, Diarrhea, Sore Throat And Swollen Glands In Neck?

I have been sneezing and coughing for a week, with a runny nose. I woke up yesterday with two swollen glands in my neck on the same side, with a very sore throat. The sore throat went away within a day. Now I have nausea, diarrhea, and the glands are still swollen. They tingle sometimes, and they ache when i turn my head. My cold is going away, but should I be worried about something more serious?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of nausea, diarrhea, sore throat and swollen glands in neck which seems to be due to of strep throat which is a bacterial infection. Need not to panic about it. I would suggest you to

1) Avoid spicy and rough food. Take diet rich in soft food.

2) Hot milk with a pinch of turmeric boiled with it at bed time for 2-3 days as it has antimicrobial action.

3)Sip on luke warm water and take throat lozenges.

4) Antibiotics are first line of treatment option in this case. In case of mild fever you can take Calpol or paracetamol for relief as well as it will relieve throat pain too.

5)Take anti inflammatory drugs such as Levocetrizine

If symptoms keeps on persisting visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. Maintain oral hygiene. Take proper course of antibiotics. Get blood tests done if required.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
