Patient's question:
Go to the hospital for a thorough check-up for bacterial cold and fever for a day, with a sore throat. Before taking a bath today, I noticed a patch of small red spots on my chest, slightly itchy. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
The patient's condition is acute pharyngitis, which may be triggered by a cold or stomach issues. Oral anti-inflammatory and heat-clearing medications can be used for treatment, such as cefuroxime axetil and Pudilan Anti-inflammatory Tablets. The small red spots on the chest could be an allergic reaction or caused by catching a cold. Oral antihistamines like loratadine can be taken for treatment, and urea cream can be applied to the affected area for additional relief. Maintain a light diet, drink plenty of hot water, eat more vegetables and fruits, and avoid spicy foods. Pay attention to preventing colds and staying warm, and get adequate rest.
