Aryamonu, good question to answer only on basis of reports patient should not be given unnecessary antibiotics,you can record the temperature and to start give paracetamol in dose 50-60mg/kg ,6 hourly if it is viral it will subside and if it is bacterial infection then need further evaluation ok

I am currently being treated for a infected tooth with Penicillin VK 7 day treatment. Before I found out I had a infected tooth I was treated with 2 different antibiotics for what was thought to be a sinus infection. This has all been within the last 3 months. My right side primarily I have pretty much constant nasal blockage. I also have mucus between my chest and my nose....lots of dripping down the back of throat, coughing it up and constant nose blowing. However I believe that there is just some stubborn mucus that doesnt smell good that I am having a hard time getting out. What can I do about this, the only relief I get is if I use nose spray, but I dont want to use that all the time. I need nasal relief.
