What Causes Throat Infection With Fever?

Hi I am 29 years old. since January(when I had chicken pox), I am suffering from throat infection, cough and cold with fever. Every time I consult a doctor I am prescribed pracetamol, antibiotics and cough syrup.

I never used to fall sick this often and want to get out of this cycle. Please suggest.

dear user
at the begining you must know that treatment course of throat infection should be completed with the indicative antibiotics...interruption of antibiotic administration and misuse of antibiotics causes the bacteria to be resistant to treatment...and then the infection symptoms come again and again because you dont complete the course of 7 days or you were taking antibiotic not recommended....discuss with your doctor to do throat swab and antibiotic sensitivity test to detect treatment...other cause very important is your stress and anxiety....as stress suppress immune system and cause recurrent infection.......hope that i helped you....wish you get worry out
