Infection de la gorge


I am suffering from "Infection de la gorge".... Nothing to be worried....Its common throat infection....

Symptoms are throat irritation, feverishness, sometimes stomach pain.... I was suffering from these symptoms from the last 1 week.

Like any modern Indian guy..I searched Google with my symptoms... I got two suggestion.

1. Increase height of pillow while sleeping..
2. Eat 2 hours before going to sleep. ( Its really hard for me...)

I decided to try some home remedies initially...started sleeping in double pillows, started drinking plenty of water....stopped my regular morning Tea. Cut down the number of teas that I take in office. Its hard.. but I drank hot water instead...Nothing helped.. still same symptoms...

So last Saturday I went to a small clinic nearby.. took medicine for 2 days....

But later I realised that the doctor was fake... he was an Ayurvedic doctor and he prescribed me Antibiotic medicines for two days....It didnt help.... most probably the he don't know the correct dose required.

Waited another two days..and today is a holiday..I decided to go to a proper hospital...But I am new in this place..I don't where  the hospital is.. Again opened Google...searched list of nearby hospitals... Found one very nearby....Met a doctor...told her the complete story....

She told me that there is some kind of infection. It could be either started from throat to stomach or vice versa.

She prescribed the following.

1. Salt water gargling 4 times a day ( this is a MUST )
2. Antibiotics for 5 days.
3. Some pills for stomach ache.

Plus,
Stop eating non-veg, have lot of curd, butter milk..

While coming back from hospital I did some shopping in Reliance fresh mall. Took some bananas and fruits..and then I noticed the ice cream box. Did she tell me to skip ice creams??? No she didn't...I picked up one.

Lets see what happens !!!
