What is the best medicine for a throat infection leading to a cold, considering my seasonal sinusitis and occasional smoking?
Asked by Male, 47 · 1 month ago
The majority of cold-related throat infections are viral and get better with rest, fluids, warm saltwater gargles, and analgesics like ibuprofen or paracetamol. Given your history of sinusitis and smoking, a doctor may recommend an appropriate antibiotic if your symptoms are severe, persistent, or you develop bacterial sinusitis.
