Internal Medicine Specialist, Dr. Muhammad Faisal Bacha's Response

Hello,

I think you are suffering from bacterial pharyngitis. Drink plenty of water, have saline gargles, and avoid spicy and acidic food for next 2 to 3 days. and will suggest you to start taking amoxycillin 500mg thrice a day for at least 5 days. also take paracetamol (500mg) one and a half tablet thrice a day if you are an adult .continue with nasal decongestant. You will get a swift recovery over 3 to 5 days.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Muhammad Faisal Bacha, Internal Medicine Specialist
