Sounds like what I just recovered from! I had a throat infection that spread up my neck to my ears and I felt just the same. The pain was sooo bad! U sound like u need anti-biotics soon as! It took me a full week just to start to recover!
I drank warm water with with a slice of lemon, a spoon ful of honey and a shot of brandy. (but skip the brandy once u start takin the anti-biotics, it can stop some types from workin) Also try juicing fresh fruit and putting it in the freezer until its like slush. It relieves a sore throat as well as givin u vitamins and keepin u hydrated.
Hope ur feelin betta soon.
you have the flu. the doctor needs to give you antibiotics..only thing that will help. Lots of rest and liquids too!
Sounds like you have flu. You could try boiling some water putting it in a bowl with a bit of lemon or menthol crystals or just on it's own, then put a towel over your head and inhale the steam for a bit.
Also if it's really bad, ring your emergency Doctor. If you call your usual Doctors number, they should say the emergency number in the answer phone message.
Try gargling with warm salt water And you could try putting boiling water into a bowl then put a towel over your head and breath in the steam that should help you.
Make yourself a drink by using lemon juice a spoonful of honey mixed with boiling water in a cup. Drink when cooled and go to bed instead of sitting at your computer.
You must be the only female with MAN FLU,it's the worst kind aint it ladies.
Pull yourself together and get out into the fresh air. Sickly child!
there have been severe cases of the flu going around. i'm don't know where you are, but you need to see your doctor. if you can't go in to the doc, call them and ask to speak to your doctor's nurse. tell her what's going on. maybe they can call something in for you if you are a regular patient.
try gargling with warm salt water. it will help the sore throat for a little while. drink chicken broth, beef broth, or just open a can of chicken noodle and warm the broth from it. use vicks vapor rub for the stuffy nose, there are ear drops for pain you can get at the drug store without a prescription. children's motrin or children's tylenol may be easier to swallow than a pill. ask the pharmacist for the right dosage for you.
A fellow flu sufferer i see.
I'm on my 3rd day in bed.
All i can suggest is keep taking the night nurse and sleep it off.
When you wake up again tomorrow, take some more and get more sleep.
Make sure central heating is on or wear lots of layers and keep drinking water.
Ice pops are good for soothing throats too.
The GP should not give you antibiotics for the flu! It just has to run it's course! It's because of overuse of antibiotics that we now have all these "superbugs" that we can't get rid of!
At times having too much medication can confuse our bodies as to how to react. I would suggest stop taking all the medication except things like paracetamol and take a lot of rest in a warm environment. Hot chicken soup with the bonny parts, honey and lemon hot drinks and vicks rub. Keep urself warm, if things get worse then ur GP will usually suggest antibiotics....easy resting....
Maybe you've got flu or glandular fever. Either way, ANTIBIOTICS WILL NOT HELP!!!
Try the lemon/ honey/ ginger drinks, take some painkillers, get the doctor to do a glandular fever test. Stay in bed. You could try taking lysine, it's an amino acid that inhibits viral activity. Send someone out to the health food shop to get some.
have you tryed olbasol you can put it onto your pillows and also inhale it with hot water steam.
if not try going into the bathroom and run the hot water until the room is full of steam and inhale it.
