I'm really worried about my brother. He was sleeping, and suddenly woke up with a sore throat. When he tried to cough, blood started coming out and it wouldn't stop for over an hour. It was pretty scary. Then, the same thing happened again after a week. What could be causing this, and should we be concerned?

I've been dealing with a throat infection for the past 15 days and it's not getting any better. I've already taken a lot of antibiotics as the doctor prescribed, but it still hasn't cleared up. What should I do next? Could I be missing something important in my treatment?
In such cases, your doctor may consider prescribing a different class of antibiotics or other medications. You can try using lozenges containing Benzocaine or Dyclonine for symptomatic relief. Additionally, you can use over-the-counter pain relievers like Acetaminophen or Ibuprofen for pain and inflammation. Gargling with warm salt water can also help soothe your throat. If the symptoms persist, please consult your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with a throat infection for the past four days now and started antibiotics two days ago, but I'm not experiencing much relief. Is this normal, or should I be worried? Is there anything else I could be doing to help speed up the healing process?
