Consult required: It is advisable to ask for a remote consultation with a HealthTap doctor (or any telemedicine service in your country). If antibiotics are merited, will be prescribed without any problem trough electronic system. Hope you get better soon.

Telemedicine: A telemedicine or virtual medicine consult may be your best bet. Many physicians are now offering this options and many insurance companies are now covering this.
