I'm dealing with a really bad sinus infection, and while my cough and nasal blockage have gotten better, my ears still feel blocked. Since yesterday, every time I yawn, there's pain either in my throat or mouth, and I can't really pinpoint the exact spot. Could this be related to the cold and blocked ears, or is there something else going on?

I'm experiencing some ear discomfort that seems to flare up mostly at night. I've also been having this persistent cough and feel like my hearing isn't as sharp as it used to be. Could you give me some advice on what I should do about this?

I often wake up feeling like there's something stuck in the back of my throat, kind of like phlegm, but it feels more like a rubbery slime or clay. It's really making me feel nauseous and I'm wondering if there's any medicine to help with it. I've had sinusitis before, which got better, but this still happens. When I eat, I sometimes can't swallow properly, and other times my throat gets super dry, and I think some cough might have gotten frozen in there due to fungus or something. What could this be, and is there a treatment for it?

take syrup ascoril twice a day for 5 days
