Hi I had a horrible earache from Saturday till early today, with a sore throat. I was taking antibiotics. Well now my left side is achy dull stabbing pain under my rib. I coughed a few minutes ago and a huge piece of bloody tissue came out from my nasal passage through my throat. I don t know if I should be worried and go to urgent care

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of ear pain, sore throat and rib cage pain which is due to upper respiratory tract infection, granular pharyngitis, enlarged tonsils and it could be strep throat infection. Need not to worry about it. Gargle warm saline rinses. You should put otogesic ear drops. Apply mist humidifiers in room. Visit ENT specialist once and get some routine blood investigation done. Go for thorough examination. Take diet rich in multivitamins. An anti-allergic, mucolytic agent will help to reduce discomfort. You should take steam inhalation through the nose and mouth will help including the ear discomfort. Avoid carbonated beverages. Drink plenty of water as well.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
