A member asked:
I have had a sore throat and ears for awhile, coughing out mucus, and have taking antibiotic but still no change, what is it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cough and earache: One possibility is that the antibiotic is not the correct one. Another is that your symptoms are not due to a bacterial infection. Do you have a history of seasonal allergies? Best to see your doctor again for a re-evaluation.
