Severe Headache, Cold, Sore Throat. Taken Paracetamol And Tramadol. Should I See A Doctor?

Hello, I have had a cold and sore throat for a couple of days. Today I have woken up with a very severe headache, I cannot lift my head at the moment. As if I do the pressure is so severe I feel like I'm going to pass out. I am taking cold and flu capsules. And have taken paracetamol and have taken tramadol with little relief. Do I need to see my doctor or will this pass?

hi,
thank you for your query.

it seems you have developed sinusitis along with cold and flu.hence i would advise you to start anti-biotics and also paracetamol with anti-histamines or pseudo-ephedrine.
take regular steam inhalations.this will reduce the headaches.also don't take cold food items for a while.
take lots of fluids and rest.
your symptoms should subside in a week or so with the above tips.

thank you,
wishing you good health
