I have sojgrens syndrome and RA I am having swelling, pain ,and pressure below left cheek and nose ? Will doxycycline help? Also have prednisone 20 mg prn for joint swelling and inflammation , been off any meds for 8 weeks. Is this a flare or sinusitis ?
you must have a check-up with an ENT specialist if any sinusitis is suspected. Doxycycline is an antibiotic for infection in pharynx or sinuses, oral cavity etc. and is only indicated when infection is suspected. Infection in URI is accompanied by sneeze or congestive nose, sore throat, fever, mild post nasal Chat Doctor. It is safer to consult your doctor for diagnosis and medication. Thanks
