I was given a prescription for Amox - Clav four days ago for a sinus infection. Although It has helped me feel better, my head is still full of mucus. I can t seem to loosen it enough to help get rid of it. I m also taking Sudafed pain, pressure and mucus, using nose spray and drinking lots of water. What else can I do to get rid of this sinus infection?
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. By your history and description, possibility of sinusitis is more. It usually takes 1-2 weeks for complete recovery from sinusitis. You are improving partially, so your antibiotic (Amos - clan) is working. Your other Chat Doctor. You should also do steam inhalation and warm water gargles 5-6 times a day. This will smoothen your nasal passage and relieve congestion there. Also take sound sleep and rest. Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
