Hey Dr. Samuel I appreciate your time. I am having a sore thought and troubles swallowing I m also having troubles sleeping i wake up all night with the bed and my pillow covered in sweat I m also having body chills all the time and i the only thing that helps is a bath but i get a bloody nose all the time and I realize this is because of dehydration but iv been drinking lots of water even know it hurts one of my main problems is that i don t have health insurance and don t want to go to the doctors if i don t want to but the headaches are getting worse so if you could give me any advice it would be greatly appreciated.
Sore throat, difficulty in swallowing, chills with night sweats and headache, strongly suggest a bacterial infection of the throat + sinuses. At the same time, frequent headaches may be migraines.
A 5-7 days' course of Cipro; plus anti-inflammatory drug, such as, Ibuprofen + Paracetamol; plus nasal decongestant drops and gargles with saline water (4 spoonful of salt in a glass of warm water) will cure the infection and also give complete relief.
It is however, advisable that you consult an ENT doctor for the exact cause.
