Question 1

i've had a mild sore throat and fever three days ago. fever's gone but throat is getting worse it seems, and still slightly lethargic. also slight burning when i urinate. are they related?

Accepted Answer

Not likely: The only way to be related is if you are now dehydrated from the sore throat and not wanting to take fluids. You will need treatment for the urinary track inf    Hydrate and continue to rest

Question 2

coughing up hard thick yellowish bloody phlegm. could this be a sinus infection since the air is really dry and cold? also causes a sore throat.

Accepted Answer

Coughing up: Blood at any time requires further work up! see your pcp. Do not put this off.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

Better c ur doctor: for evaluation, you may very well need prescription medications, your doctor or urgent care, best wishes

Question 4

i have a spontaneous rash on both forearms, on my left wrist, and right hand, as well as my entire upper back. i also have some phlegm in my sinus and a sore throat. i am allergic to dogs, but no food. this is completely out of the blue.

Accepted Answer

Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. The constellation of symptoms you mentioned may have more than one explanation. It would be prudent to see your doctor. 
Wish you good health!

Question 5

should i stop taking augmentin (amoxicillin and clavulanate) if i have burning eyes and a sore throat 5 days into a 14 day course? on it for sinus infection.

Accepted Answer

Augmentin (amoxicillin and clavulanate) reaction?: doesn't sound like a reaction to augmenting,  i wouldn't yet

Question 6

sick for week now pretty much the same feverish sinus pressure pain feels like face is pounding very stuffy nose and cough very lethargic sore throat?

Accepted Answer

Viruses stink: Most sinus infections in children and adults are viral pathogens.  It's not uncommon for symptoms to last 4-5+ weeks. I'd talk to your doctor about ways to decrease some of the symptoms. Can be as easy as DayQuil or if appropriate, I will prescribe a cough syrup (eg Tussionex) with an intranasal steroid (eg, Nasonex) and/or Chloraseptic Max Cough drops (they have 2 numbing agents in them). G'luck!

Question 7

my daughter has been sick all week with bad sinus. shes vomiting and has a sore throat so bad shes not eating and hardly drinks?

Accepted Answer

Time for a visit: It sounds like this has progressed past the point of a minor self healing illness. A visit with some testing for strep is appropriate.

Question 8

might it happen that a sinus infection cause a bad sore throat?

Accepted Answer

Yes: May be associated throat infection and/or dryness.

Question 9

what is best to use for a sore throat, resulting from sinus infection?

Accepted Answer

Sore throat: If your throat is not infected then warm salt water gargles is as good as anything OTC. Good Luck

Question 10

i suffered a sinus infection 2 weeks ago with a sore throat.now i have another battle with a sore throat, except now it's only one side of my throat ?

Accepted Answer

Can still happen: and can still be viral, not sure if you received any antibiotic treatment  in the first episode. Salt water gargles, saline nasal washes, rest and pain killers would help, if no improvement, you want to see your doctor for possible need of Rx meds, best wishes
