Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...

As per your complain and presentation of symptoms your husband seems to be suffering from Upper Respiratory Tract Infection..
Nothing to worry, take a course of antibiotics again like Azithromycin 500 mg once a day for 5 days..
For reducing pain and inflammation in throat you can take Ibuprofen.
Chew a Vitamin C pellet daily..
Do warm saline gargles.
Do steam inhalations and use a humidifier at home..
Take sufficient rest..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
Dr.Honey Nandwani Arora.
