Why are the hard, painful lumps on the left side of my throat and the sharp ear pain not getting better despite taking Pulmocef, Sunpod, Macpod, and Celin, and could this be a sign of cancer rather than an infection?
Hard, painful lumps in the neck and ear pain are very common responses to stubborn infections, not necessarily cancer. You are currently taking overlapping antibiotics?cefuroxime (Pulmocef) and cefpodoxime (Sunpod and Macpod)?alongside vitamin C (Celin). If your infection is viral or resistant, these antibiotics will not work and can cause unnecessary side effects. I strongly recommend consulting an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist promptly to get an accurate diagnosis, safely adjust your medications.
