It's been four days since I tested positive and my throat is really sore. It's so painful that even drinking water is tough. Could you suggest any remedy that might help with this?

To soothe a sore throat and make hydration easier, try these remedies: gargle with warm salt water (14 teaspoon salt in 8 ounces of water), use a humidifier to add moisture to the air, sip on warm, non-caffeinated liquids like tea or broth

I've been dealing with a cold for almost two months now and it's getting really frustrating. I'm doing steam inhalation every day and using a nasal spray that my doctor prescribed, so my nose isn't blocked at the moment. But it feels like there's something stuck in my throat that Im constantly trying to spit out. Every time I do, it feels like there's a connection to my ears, which is really uncomfortable. On top of that, I've got an eye infection that just won't go away. I've been on medication for a month now with no real improvement. Could you give me some advice on what might be going on?

I'm really struggling with a runny nose that's been going on for like a year now. Whenever I take citrazine, it works for about three days, but then the symptoms just come back. I remember using Efcorlin nasal drops around 10 years ago for the same issue, and it helped a lot. Is there any way I can get a prescription for it online? It's been quite frustrating to deal with this on a regular basis.
