I've recently recovered from COVID, but I'm starting to feel some symptoms that worry me. I've got a sore throat, pain under my tongue, and irritation in my throat. I'm sneezing a lot too, and I have a history of maxillary sinus issues and nasal deviation. It feels like I might be dealing with COVID-like symptoms again, but I don't have a fever. Should I be concerned about this recurrence, and what can I do to alleviate these symptoms?

View allI've been dealing with sinus issues for a really long time now. Every time I have something cold, I start sneezing nonstop. Even when my room fan is on high speed, I wake up sneezing with a lot of coughing, and it happens in summer too. It's been a year since I could eat ice cream. I've been on homeopathy for 4 months but no improvement. I keep taking Sinarest for temporary relief and go through almost a full strip every month. Is there any permanent solution for this? Would sinus surgery help or will I have to live with this sneezing forever?

I'm really struggling with a post-nasal drip that's been giving me a sore throat for the last few days. It's making it so hard to sleep because of the pressure in my ear. I've tried stuff like Strepsils and gargling with salt water, which helps a bit but doesn't last. I've also been taking 5ml of Ambroxol Hydrochloride at night and added Ascoril LS as well as Maxtra P over the last couple of days since I thought maybe that's what's causing the sore throat. I don't have a runny nose, but I'm living in a place that gets dusty even with window filters. I'm a bit allergic too... Could all this dust and stuff be part of the problem? What else can I try for some more long-term relief?
You seem to be experiencing symptoms of post nasal drip with a sore throat, difficulty sleeping, and ear pressure. Since you have already tried some home remedies and medications, I would recommend the following treatment plan for you: 1. Continue with Ambroxol Hydrochloride 5ml once every night before sleep to help with mucus clearance. 2. Continue with Ascoril LS+ 5ml to help with cough and congestion. 3. Switch from Maxtra P to Levocetirizine 5mg once daily to help with allergies and post nasal drip. 4. Additionally, you can try using a saline nasal spray to help clear out your nasal passages. 5. It's also important to address the dust in your living environment by regularly cleaning and dusting to reduce allergen exposure. 6. If your symptoms persist or worsen, consider consulting with an ENT specialist for further evaluation and management. I hope this treatment plan helps alleviate your symptoms.

I've had swollen tonsils for the past three days, but no other symptoms or discomfort. My doctor gave me Ceftum 500, but it hasn't made a difference, so now I'm on a five-day course of Augmentin 625. Could the swelling be from a viral infection instead of a bacterial one? How long does it usually take for tonsillitis to clear up? By the way, I'm a 28-year-old male.
have patince and complete the course consult ent if still persists
