I've been feeling this weird tightness in my throat and its getting really uncomfortable. On top of that, Im having trouble sleeping even though I feel super sleepy. Its a bit worrying, and I'm just wondering if this could point to some medical condition? Do you think its something serious that I should be concerned about?

View allI'm experiencing really intense pain on one side of my face and I've just started swimming. It began with a slight cold but has gotten way worse over the last couple of days. Could you suggest any immediate medication that might help? I'm planning on seeing the doctor tomorrow, but until then, any advice would be great. I've tried taking steam but it only helped a little bit and the pain is still really bad.
Drink plenty of fluids, such as water or juice. This will help dilute mucous secretions and promote drainage. Avoid beverages that contain caffeine or alcohol, as they can be dehydrating. Drinking alcohol can also worsen the swelling of the lining of the sinuses and nose. Moisten your sinus cavities. Drape a towel over your head as you breathe in the vapor from a bowl of hot water. Keep the vapor directed toward your face. Or take a hot shower, breathing in the warm, moist air. This will help ease pain and help mucus drain. Apply warm compresses to your face. Place warm, damp towels around your nose, cheeks and eyes to ease facial pain..Consult nearest ent surgeon they will do the needful.

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.
