Suggest Treatment For Sore Throat With White Spots & Sinus Drainage
i had a sore throat with some white spots over a week ago. and my right gland in my neck has been swollen. i have done the salt water seveal times it gets better and the worse. tonight my gland is really big . just hurts on the other side. no fever. i have had sinus drainage.
I have gone through your query and can understand your concern... As per your complain it seems that you have a viral throat infection with a secondary strep or bacterial infection..
Nothing to worry, you can take AZITHROMYCIN 500mg once a day for 5 days. For inflammation and swollen glands take IBUPROFEN 400 mg thrice a day.. For cough and sinus drainage Pseudoephadrine [sudafed] can be taken.. Keep doing warm saline gargles.. Steam inhalations and using a humidifier in your room will further relieve.. Chew a Vitamin C pellet daily.. Drink plenty of water and avoid spicy and hard foods..
Hope this information helps..
Thanks and regards.. Dr.Honey Nandwani Arora.
