Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I have a recurrent sore throat for the past seven months. I cannot drink, swallow, and my tongue is covered with a white layer. I have a dust allergy. I have a mild fever that goes to high fever as the time passes. There is malaise. I have vomiting often after I swallow. It is like a viscous sputum that blocks food from entering into the food canal. This time, I have swollen lymph nodes in my neck. The doctor examined me and told me there is no tonsillitis. I am taking Levofloxacin, Azithromycin, Ofloxacin, and Amoxicillin.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
You are having an acute pharyngitis infection. You need to do the following tests:
According to these reports, further treatment can be decided. Use salt water gargle done with warm water three times a day. Take one tablespoon of turmeric powder with milk daily. Drink warm water. Vitamin C 500 mg can also be taken for a week. For the symptomatic relief of pain and congestion, Paracetamol and Levocetirizine can be taken. You can consult an Otorhinolaryngologist for the further examination.
