Cold, Sore, or Strep Throat or both?

You must complete your medication, even if you are feeling somewhat ok. Finish all of the medication. Always go outside with a scarf around your mouth and ears. You are sick and we don't want you to get worse. You must get between 8-10 hours of sleep a night. Your body is run down and infections will come quick when you body is not getting proper rest. Drink teas to get rid of infection (no sugar) and when you bath or shower, always afterward use some peroxide to wipe your body down of any lingering infections. Drink your tea with lemon slices to help with the congestion in your nose and throat. Keep using cough drops to lubricate your throat so it doesn't get dry (Ricola brand is great!) Remember to keep your scarf around your nose, mouth and ears. The plugging in your ears is due to the infection, so keep your head warm at all times, even going to bed. Wrap a towel around your head when you sleep. Hope this helps:)
