Feeling Hurt And Itching In Throat. Taste Like Blood Or Metal In Mouth. Prescribed Zanat. Guide?
hi, lately, maybe a month now, I've been experiencing these where it feels like throat hurts and itches as well as my lung (mainly on my right side), sometimes i even taste something like blood or metal, a sort of rusty taste. I don't have allergies and I don't usually get sick. I did get the flu just before this started and my doctor gave me Zanat. I also take roaccutane.

Hi, it appears to be the pneumonia, or eosinophelia, or may be pharyngitis. if the bacterial infection is more the sputum becomes coloured yellow or brown and tasts odd.
I to my patients with such symptoms prescribe amoxycillin, clavalinic acid, decongestants , and a cough preparation. So consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment. Thank you.
