HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Upper respiratory tract infections can affect the sinuses and ears and cause problems with balance.

Normally the symptoms should resolve with the infection, though in some cases it may persist for a up a few weeks after the initial infection.

Antibiotics start having an effect within 24 to 48 hours. There may be some improvement of symptoms.

I hope this helps
