sceadugenga Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I came back fro Lao 8 days ago with a boomer of a cold that seems to be worse now if anything. Bronchitis, sinus pain, fever, headache I've got the lot. Time for an antibiotic? I've worked my way through all the normal stuff like decongestants, paracetamol, lime juice and honey, some mysterious unmarked red and blue pills the mrs brought me from the village pharmacy.

Sceptict11 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Time to consult a Doctor if you are unwell. Blind self medication with an "antibiotic" is a bad idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Yes, see a doctor. You may have sinusitis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FBN Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Lots of it going around for the last 2 weeks; symptoms last for a while. My coughing cleared up with just loads of water and the odd steam bath/inhalations. That said, if you have persistent fever with a productive cough, best to see a doc for possible antibiotics.
