I'm a 34-year-old guy who's been dealing with off-and-on nasal congestion for as long as I can remember. I just had an x-ray of my nose and the PNS result showed some haziness in the right maxillary sinus. My ENT doctor has put me on a course of amoxclav for five days, plus I'm using a fluticasone nasal spray and taking telecast L tablets. I'm really curious about what's causing this haziness. Is it something that happens often, or is there any reason I should be worried? Would appreciate some insight.

I'm experiencing pain in my throat whenever I swallow saliva, but it seems to be less noticeable when I'm eating or drinking. The thing is, the pain shifts from one side to the other, sometimes on the right and then back to the left, and I'm also feeling a slight discomfort near my ear. Any advice on what might be going on?

I was dealing with nasal congestion and ear pain, and my doctor prescribed Lasma Ab for two weeks. Unfortunately, I couldn't follow up with the doctor afterward, so I've been continuing the medication. My nasal congestion seems to have improved, but I'm a bit worried. Could taking Lasma Ab for an extra two weeks do any harm?

If you have already taken Lasma AB for four weeks instead of the prescribed two, it is important to stop the medication and contact your doctor to assess whether any adjustments or further actions are needed.
