What Causes Headache, Pain In Ear And Throat?

I went to the Dr on Friday she said I had a sinus infection. I have been on antibiotics since friday. My head, my ears, and my throat are killing me. I also have these little white seedy looking things coming out of my tonsils that stink and taste awful what are they and what else can I do. Im already on the antibiotics but the pain isnt getting any better

Hi.
I've gone through your query and I can understand your anxiety.

For sinus headache
* As you are already on the course, continue the same.
* tab. Vitamin C 500mg twice daily
* use Nasivion spray 2-3drops thrice a day
* Steam inhalation
* Analgesics

For sore throat & tonsillitis
- always drink warm water
- Gargle with salt water or condy's gargle
- soft diet

If it's of viral origin will subside in a week & if it's due to bacteria, once after starting antibiotics symptoms will settle down.

If you find large neck nodes, spikes of fever despite of medications, earache & discharge, you have to consult your doctor for further assistance.

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

Regards,
Dr. Yogapriya V, General and family physician.
