For about a month, I've been experiencing symptoms in my throat, jaw, and ears, including a heavy feeling in the lymph nodes of the jaw, a dry and slightly painful throat, full ears, and occasional sharp pain in the throat when burping. My throat looks a bit red on the right side, and I sometimes feel like I have to clear my throat or experience a slight post-nasal drip. I don't have nasal congestion or itchy eyes. I've been exposed to a lot of dust while cleaning my house. Do you think this sounds like allergies, an infection, GERD, or something else? Do I need more diagnostic testing? Should I be concerned about throat cancer?

However, the bottle should only last 6 days, but a quarter remains. I haven't missed any doses and am using the 5ml line on the spoon correctly. What could be the issue?

My daughter was diagnosed with scabies. We found some in between her legs last Friday, 15th September. She is 3 years old and was prescribed a cream to be applied all over her body and oral medication Cephalexin. Is there any medicine to remove the itch, and can I give her Cetirizine if I only have that at home?
