I am sick...Any tips/remedies?!


Question: I went to the dr a while ago for a bad cough and he put me on antibiotis, i am done with those (have been done for about 1 week) but i think i have something else now. I dont have a cough:

I am dehydrated - my dad went to get me flavored water -because i havent been drinking water
My throat hurts
My sinuses hurt
My bones ache and my mucles hurt (possibly due to i am dehydration)
I am physically tired but not enough to sleep
My tongue is sore

The dr said if i am not better by tuesday to come in

How can i prevent my dehydration from getting worse
Last time i was sick i almost went to the hospital because of dehydration.

It is VERY important to drink lots of water! When you are fevered, you sweat a lot. Also, water is what flushes the icky germs out.

Whenever I have a sore throat, I buy some chloroseptic spray. If you can't get your hands on that you could go the simple method, which is make some toast with honey on it. The crunchy toast will scrape the back of your throat, getting rid of some of the bacteria that's irrating it.

Just stay in bed, under a pile of warm blankets with a cup of water and a straw. Sip it every five minutes, and you'll be drinking lots of it without even knowing it! I hope you feel well soon!

Drink Gatorade, or another sports drink.

Drink isotonic water and take vit c. daily dose of multi vit will help. sleep for 2 days and take ur medication . take light food and lots of fruits and water. i was down for 2 weeks and i tried all that . it works.

Seems you have fever. And that's because of infection. So you should take some antibiotics. If tablets/capsules are not helpful, injections should be prescribed for you. If you think you're at risk of dehydration,you should receive fluids through serum therapy (into your blood vessels).
Other things like analgesic tablets,inhaling water steam,more tea and fruit juice,enough rest,... are just complimentary to what I said above.
So visit your doctor for a medical following up.
