General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to an upper respiratory tract infection. I suggest continuing using anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen three times a day.

I also suggest to rest and drink liquids. I recommend to eat a healthy diet and gargle with saltwater. If the symptoms continue, I suggest seeing your gp for a physical examination.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
