Sore throat, fever and cough

From 2 days, I have had a sore throat which feels like my throat is burnt because of acidity. Hardly a month ago i visited an ENT doctor for cough which was treated after medication. Today i am having a fever of 99.2 F and cough. I had previously asked a question for treatment for my sore throat. Some kind doctors on Practo recommended that i take Amoxicillin/Amoxiclav, betadine gargle, antacid and antihistamines. But i do not know what dose of Amoxicillin to take. A month ago, i took Tablet Augpen ( Amoxicillin 250mg, Potassium clavunate125mg) for one course and followed up with Clarithromycin 500mg for another course after a week. (I have attached my prescription and throat image). Should i take 250mg Amoxicillin again or increase it to 500mg or 1gm? Thank you so much in advance!

H pylori treatment

Hello I got an endoscopy done since I’m suffering from severe acidity and I’m tested positive for H pylori bacteria. Doctor prescribed 2 week’s antibiotic course which involves taking 4 antibiotics per day (clarithromycin and amoxicillin) and a gastric tablet. I understand that this is the standard allopathy treatment for h pylori. I’m concerned about taking high dosage of antibiotics for prolonged period. Can someone please advise if this is ok ? Is there any alternative Ayurvedic medicine that you guys have tried ?

Is Staph Aureus Contagious?

I have recently been diagnoised with Organism: Staph Aureus in my throat culture with only 5 antibiotics sensitive, even it is resistant to Vancomycin. I have been suffering from it since 10 years now. I had visited more than 7 to 8 doctors, even tried ayurvedic and homeopathy treatments but no body diagnosed it correctly until recently. I have been on Clarithromycin and Moxifloxacin. Still I don't see much improvement. I am worried that it might have spread to my family members. How can I assure that it has not been spread, I really worried about my family. Please help. Which specialist should I approach who has proper understanding of this serious infectious disease for my family. Also is it treatable or I have to accept the fact that it is not treatable anymore.

Sore throat with tonsil inflammation

Hello Doctor, I have a mild sore throat for last one month. No problem in eating solid food, just a mild pain in a particular point below left tonsil while swallowing saliva or sometimes yawning or talking. Have taken azithral, augmentin, Allegra, clarithromycin but not much change. Have mild fever(97.7) sometimes. Have less appetite and sometimes feel like food is stuck and have to clear my throat. Also feel burning or itching sensation sometimes in that area. Please refer the attached pic of left tonsil. Doctors said due to acid reflux but I am worried a lot with the fear of something serious. Please provide your opinions. Thanks.
