I have a severe cough that comes an gos it seems to get worse the later it is, I continue to chew on mints and cough drops which help but then today I developed a heaviness-clogging feeling in my right ear that is severly irritating do you know what it might be and how to cure it
Hi, I have gone through your query and understand your concern. I would like to know the duration of your cough first. The pain in your right ear is due to the blocked Eustachian tube. It usually happens in throat infections. I would suggest you to undergo some blood tests like complete blood counts, ESR, & Chest X-ray, I will also suggest you to go for sputum examination for AFB if your cough is for more than 2 weeks. Along with the tests you should get your chest and throat examined by a physician. Till then I will suggest you to take some antihistamines like levocetrizine and montelukast tablet, expectorant cough syrup, Antibiotic course (Amoxyclav or Author), analgesics & warm saline gargles for 5 days at least, under physician supervision. I hope you are not allergic to any of the medicines. If you have anything else in your mind then please ask, I will be glad to answer your query. Wish you good health. Thanks & Regards
