Suggest Treatment For Nausea, Sore Throat And Swallowing Difficulty
Ive had a sore throat for about a week now first 5 days my throat hurt so bad i couldn t swallow without it hurting now I it only hurts in the morning when i wake up. Ive had the chills, have been extremely overheated and have been nauseous on different occasions during the past 7 days. Ive taking two allergy pills but really have not done anything all this happened after eating an ice cream cone.
It seems you have developed an upper respiratory tract infection. Anti-allergic medications are not going to work in your case and you need to take an antibiotic. Azithromycin and Levofloxacin work well in upper respiratory tract infections. You can discuss this with your physician. In addition, you should do warm betadine gargles at least twice daily. For the nausea you can take an antacid like tab ranitidine for a few days on empty stomach. If the symptoms don't subside get a blood culture done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
