Sore throat and headaxhe
Age:34, Gender: Male
Hi
I have sore throat and cough for 4.5 days now
I got a sore throat on Wednesday morning and then felt slight shivering in Wednesday night . After shivering I took cApol 500 and then no complaints of shivering .
But post that I have had continuous bad throat. I was continuously taking gargles salt and now betadine but after seeing little improvement I started taking medication from Friday morning . Started with azee 500 mg once a day in morning and started half crocin twice a day . I have noticed crocin is helping with pain .
But today is third day of medication and I got up again with a bad throat.
I am still to take my third dose of azee while I have just taken full crocin for pain relief. My voice has changed
I have had mild jaundice a year back and I had bad diahrrea 2 months back . I have done three LFTs in 3 months with 2 coming in borderline range and one coming in slightly higher than borderline range.Is it safe to take anti biotics ?

Hi..... Rest. Get plenty of sleep and rest your voice.
Drink fluids. Drink plenty of water to keep the throat moist and prevent dehydration.
Try comforting foods and beverage. Warm liquids — broth, caffeine-free tea or warm water with honey — and cold treats such as ice pops can soothe a sore throat.
Gargle saltwater. A saltwater gargle of 1 teaspoon. Gargle the solution and then spit it out.
