I'm really worried and need some advice. I've been dealing with strep throat for about a week and a half, and my right tonsil is super swollen. I've also been getting pain in my ear. Last Thursday, they said I had a sinus infection, but they didn't check my throat for strep back then. I just started taking amoxicillin today, two doses so far, but after the first one, I took a nap and woke up with this chest pain on the upper right side when I breathe. Is this normal or something I should be concerned about?

it might be due to gastritis which is a side effect of Amoxicillin.

I'm really worried because my husband, who's 33 years old, just got a positive result from his RTPCR test with a CT value of 32.819. He's had a mild cough and sore throat for the past four days, but his oxygen levels are at 99. I'm trying to figure out what this CT value of 32 means. Does it suggest a mild infection, or should we be more concerned about a greater level of infection?
Given your age, lifestyle, and symptoms, possible causes of mild chest pain include: 1. _Musculoskeletal issues_: Strained muscles or costochondritis (inflammation of cartilage connecting ribs to breastbone). 2. _Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)_: Stomach acid flowing up into the esophagus, causing chest pain. 3. _Anxiety or stress_: Tension leading to chest discomfort. 4. _Cardiovascular issues_: Although less likely given your lifestyle, it's essential to rule out conditions like hypertension, high cholesterol, or cardiac arrhythmias. Consult a cardiologist or a primary care physician for a thorough evaluation, including: 1. Physical examination 2. Electrocardiogram (ECG) 3. Blood tests (e.g., lipid profile, cardiac enzymes) 4. Imaging tests (e.g., echocardiogram, stress test) if necessary Don't hesitate to seek medical attention if you experience: - Severe chest pain - Shortness of breath - Dizziness or lightheadedness - Pain radiating to your arms, neck, or jaw
