I'm experiencing a cold throat infection and fever almost every month and have been taking Azithromycin 500 along with Nicip Cold n Flu and Combiflam for the past five days. Is this normal, or should I be worried? Should I continue with these medications or try something else?

I recommend continuing with Azithromycin 500mg as prescribed by your doctor. You can also continue taking Nicip Cold n Flu for relief from cold symptoms. However, it is important to note that frequent use of Combiflam (ibuprofen) is not recommended as it can have side effects on the stomach and kidneys. Instead, you can consider taking paracetamol alone for fever and body aches. Make sure to stay hydrated, get plenty of rest, and consult with your doctor for further evaluation and management of your recurrent infections.

View allI'm having this weird issue where my ears make sounds after I sneeze. I've already finished my cold meds, but my nose is still blocked, especially in the mornings. Plus, I have this minor cough that comes and goes. What should I do?
your symptoms seem to be consistent with residual effects from a cold, like nasal congestion and Eustachian tube dysfunction, but if they persist or worsen, its important to seek further medical advice. In the meantime, using saline sprays, staying hydrated, and addressing the congestion with decongestants or steam inhalation should help improve your symptoms.

I'm 48 and just found out I have a throat tumor. The doctor near me recommended surgery but I'm worried are there other treatment options I could explore before going under the knife?
Depending on tumor type, radiation or chemo may be options—get a biopsy and second opinion before deciding.

My wife has been dealing with some really bothersome throat pain and we're not sure what's going on. We've tried giving her some tablets, but it doesn't seem to be getting any better. She also has this really bad cough that's worrying us. Could you help us figure out what's happening?
Your wife's throat pain and bad cough could be symptoms of a sore throat, also known as pharyngitis, which is usually caused by a viral infection like the common cold or flu. It's possible that the tablets she took didn't provide relief because they might not have addressed the underlying cause.
