Sore Throat and Earache
I'm having a sore throat since Friday. Yesterday I went to a medical store. The chemist asked me to take Zedex syrup and told me that it's very effective. I took 2 tablespoons of syrup. After 2 hours of taking it, I started having an earache in my right ear. It continuously increased and I couldn't sleep properly. Somehow, I slept with the pain. Now in the morning, I'm having the ache again. Though it is less now but it's still paining.
Kindly help.

That happens because of obstruction of Eustachian tube the connection between nose and ears. The easiest way to solve your problem is to do steam inhalation with Vaporizer or Steamer 3minute every 2hours until it subsides totally.
