Question

I have horse voice and been having a pain in my right ear..I have been looking at symptoms of a p.E and am npw freaking because I sneezed up two tiny strands of blood from throat..Shud I go to er?

Answer 1

To ER: Don't be scared, be smart. Go to an emergency room and get checked out. That way you'll know and be able to enjoy your pregnancy in peace.

Answer 2

See a doctor : Your symptoms are concerning enough to see a doctor. Remember that there are two lives at risk here.

Answer 3

Afraid of doc: You should never be afraid to see a docotr if you are sick. In your case you shuld see one asap as you are pregnant as well. Yu do not want to have the fetus catch any preventable infection. Docotrs are there to help so relax and you should be fine. Good luck.

Answer 4

Allergy meds: There are many good over the counter allergy medications. If the problem is year round, seeing someone who does provocation/neutralization allergy testing could help the symptoms right away.

Answer 5

Many ways: The most common answer you will get from docs is "allergy meds". In addition, avoidance of the allergens is a powerful solution, but often difficult to achieve. Rinsing away those allergens from your nose can be hugely successful. Consider using a daily nasal rinse of saline. Like rinsing dust off your car, daily nasal saline rinses wash away allergens, virus, bacteria. Nice effect. Try it.

Answer 6

Eye Drops: Seasonal allergies are a real drag. I think an all out "no prisoners" approach is best. Follow the guidelines of dr. Faust ENT and use nasal sprays, additionally there are now very good eye drops called mast cell stabilizers that prevent the histamine from ever releasing from the surface of the eye. These are a prescription once a day eye drop and bring real relief after about 2-3 days of use.

Answer 7

Could be either: The symptoms you describe could indicate either a bacterial or viral infection; although statistically, viral infections are more common. An examination will be important. The fact that you had a flu shot is great but flu shots only protect against the 2-4 worst strains of influenza flu for that season; it doesn't protect against the thousands of other strains of flu. Best to see your doctor.

Answer 8

Either: How long have you had the symptoms? Do you have any respiratory symptoms? What you are describing are non-specific symptoms that could be either related to viruses or bacteria.

Answer 9

Sore Throat: It is difficult to figure out if a sore throat caused by a bacteria or virus, even on examination. We do a rapid strep test from a throat swab which allows to confirm if it is bacterial which is usually streptococcus (strep throat). Viral upper resp infections account for majority. If you do not have high fever, take otc meds, salt water gargles and see if is subside in 2-3 days.

Answer 10

Most likely viral: It is most likely viral , flu shot protects you from flu, but there are plenty of other viruses as well, management supportive, with adequate hydration, tylenol, (acetaminophen) some sources also recommend extra vit c ( not proven ). Be more careful if you have any serious immunocompromising conditions.

Answer 11

More likely Viral: You most likely have a viral syndrome. I would first try conservative medical management. Lost of fluids to include water and juice. You may take tylenol (acetaminophen) or Acetaminophen up to a maximum of 3000 mg a day. This with the assumption that you don't have any liver disease. If your symptoms don't resolve within a week, follow up with your md to be evaluated. Good luck.

Answer 12

Labs: I'm not seeing lab results, sounds like much of this can be explained by thyroid disorder, but need labwork to evaluate for this, auto-immunue, and other issues, be sure to follow up with your doctor closely until issues are explained and resolved.

Answer 13

Complicated: Your symptoms suggest a viral cause. The fatigue, gland swelling and rapid thyroid enlargement indicate a systemic (total body process). By the fact you have had a ct scan i assume you have seen a doctor. Hopefully bloodwork was done and the information will be helpful. Your most important issue right now is your airway, if you are having trouble breathing you need to go to the hospital er asap.

Answer 14

Call your doc: Could be viral, bacterial, other. History of travel, unsavory food intake, bleeding, sick contacts, other meds or medical conditions, antibiotic use in the last 2-3 months. Large volume or small volume diarrhea? Could even be inflammatory stuff like diverticulitis, appendicitis, etc. Risk dehydration, even with oral rehydration fluid like pedialyte (otc) call your doc.

Answer 15

Many possibilities: If a yeast infection is causing the burning, Monistat cures many but not all yeast infections, another med may be needed. Urine culture can identify bladder infection. Spasm of muscles in the pelvis especially the tiny muscles around the urethra can cause burning. Skin infection other than yeast, including herpes can have subtle signs but cause significant burning.
