I'm really feeling under the weather with this throat pain. It's been tough dealing with a dry throat and I'm also having this fever that's got me shivering quite a bit. What's strange is that there's no cough along with these symptoms. Can you help me figure out what's going on or suggest what I should do? I'm just not sure how to handle this.

Throat pain, cold, fever, and chills with dry throat but no cough can be symptoms of a viral infection. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can take acetaminophen for fever and pain relief. Additionally, you can try lozenges like Strepsils for throat pain relief. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention.

View allI've been dealing with this tinnitus for about 9-10 months now. The first doctor I saw said my left ear looked a bit dull and gave me a decongestant, but that didn't really help. Then another ENT mentioned something about my ear being retracted or RTM. Since then, I've seen multiple doctors and have been on multivitamins and ginkgo. I've got a few questions though. Can RTM stick around for nearly a year, and if it does, could this be the reason for ear pain when I gently use earbuds? Also, when I do the Valsalva maneuver in the morning, I sometimes feel something watery in my ear. This only happens the first time when I wake up. Besides taking all these meds, are there other ways to deal with it? It's hard to sleep with this constant noise, kinda like the sound an old TV makes, and it's there all the time, fluctuating like a stream. Is using warm oil in my ear a good idea? Could an infection be causing all this? I'm really stressed out by all this.

I've had this bad throat for about a week, and I've been managing it with saltwater gargles. But last night, I experienced severe pain in my ear, so I took ALTHROCIN 500. The ear pain seems to be gone this morning, but now my ear feels closed. Is it alright that I took ALTHROCIN, especially since I've already taken two tablets?
you have allergic pharyngitis and reflux. You can add an antiallergic which suits you and also an antacid
