How To Treat Sore Throat And Eye?

Hello, I got a very sore throat from post nasal drip, and my left eye is sore also which waters all the time right now. I took Mucinex Allergy and Mucinex dm around 9:00 Pm last night. Is there anything I can do for my sore throat that has been bothering me since 8:00 am yesterday. Should I see my ear, nose, and throat DR for this? I have Asthma. Thank You Deborah

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi, what you are suffering is upper respiratory tract infection. Medications you are taking seems alright. You can add one more syrup Ambrodil S 2 tsp 3 times a day, which contains Ambroxyl and Salbutamol, which will help you to clear throat congestion due to post nasal drip as well as keep your airways in good condition by means of broncho dilatation. In addition, do salt water gargling once in morning and once at bedtime. You can also soothen your throat by lozanges like halls or strepsils.
In case you end up with cough with expectoration, with sputum in yellow or green colour, you need to consult a physician and take a course of antibiotics.
