Hi all, I been having a terrible sore throat which now lasted till a month. Anyone of you came across such pain in the throat before? I actually recovered from my sore throat about 5 days back and it came back yesterday morning. I suspected must be the nasal spray which contains budesonide which is now causing my throat to pain. I went to 2 doctors and both gave me antibiotics and nothing worked until I took the chinese herbal tea and i got well. And now, I'm having it again.. sigh.. Do you think this is normal or should I seek the specialist? My nose is blocked that is why i used the nasal spray. unknowingly, the cause of budesonide cause me to have this sore throat and i stopped using the spray.

You indicate that your nose is blocked. You need to find out why, and try to treat it. If the Chinese herbal tea works, great! There are also over-the-counter and prescription antihistamines and decongestants you can try. I find that a few days of Sudafed or the related generic can be helpful. Gargling with salted water and/or mouthwash also help the sore throat temporarily. Butesonide is a steroid and has a lot of side effects. If your doctor is giving you that, you need to have a discussion about how to treat your allergies long term. Or see a specialist. It is time to resolve this problem. Find out what is causing your nose problems! You will have this nose for a long… [cont.] Answered by Sandra - Mon Nov 23 08:13:40 2009 Help with Crohn's Disease tummy pain?
Q. I am 26 and have had Crohn's for 11 years. I have had two operations and tried all sorts of medication - prednisolone, immuran, mesasal, entocort. I am suffering yet another flare-up and my stomach pain has been the most severe yet. I'm used to discomfort but this is the worst I've experienced - not even my hot water bottle is helping! My tests show chronic inflammation and my tummy has swollen so much I actually look pregnant (which I'm not). I am currently taking entocort (budesonide) but I am desperate to combat this pain somehow. I am usually a pro at dealing with my tummy pain but this time around it is constant and I can't seem to get rid of it. Any suggestions? I don't want to have a third operation. Asked by SnowLover - Thu Jul 31 01:02:45 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. I'm taking a gastrointestinal physiology class right now and we actually just learned about Crohn's disease. Our professor said Remicade and Thalidomide are some current medications that are used. Have you tried these? Apparently Thalidomide has a great anti-inflammatory result, but is also associated with severe birth defects (read about "thalidomide babies" on google). Depending on your future child plans, etc. this could be an option for you. Maybe ask your doctor about these as options.
