Could be Alergies..try alergy meds first.Get an eye drop for your eyes visine has some good ones for differents symptoms. It sounds like you have a sore throat and it could be bronchitis, so I would go to the Dr for that and if you can't go to a Dr then go and get some Theraflu (It was great for me) Lots of vitamin C and lots of water (even though it hurts) If the Theraflu doesn't work get some multisymptom cold medicine. If your thoat hurts really bad and you want to kill the bacteria get some listerine and gargle several times a day and swallow just a little bit (it is so gross but it worked for me) Get plenty of rest!!! sleep as much as you can and drink warm liquids for a few days...and gatorade to help with any dehydration

Sounds like you have really bad allergies. The cough is probably nasal drainage which would cause your throat to hurt. Open your mouth and take a flashlight and look at the back of your throat...do you see two red streaks? That's nasal drainage. Your itchy eyes sound like classic symptoms of allergies also. There are lots of OTC (over the counter) medicines you can take, or if they are really bothersome, go see your family doctor.

Sounds like allergies or sinuses. I have problems with both and often have the same problems you describe.
Try some allergy meds first. If they dont work, it could be infection. Sinus infection would cause the throat and coughing thing. And you could have infection in your eyes. The doc can prescribe antibioitics and eyedrops. The eyedrops are wonderful, I have had them, and they work quickly.

nicely it will be countless issues. it will be hypersensitive reactions, a watch an infection mutually with conjunctivitis or purple eye, even if it sounds to me like likely that's a blocked tear duct. that is thoroughly general in newborns. in simple terms take a sparkling textile, dip the nook of it in lukewarm water and sparkling the toddler's eyes, and make positive each and each and every time you rub you take advantage of a diverse nook of the textile. you could call the wellbeing care professional or take him in, yet i'm positive that is not nessecary because that is not something too serious truly. you could cope with it your self even if the wellbeing care professional would reccommend some style of drops or something that you'll placed on his eyes. also, breast milk works tremendous in case you position a drop of it on each and each and every eye the position it style of feels to be crusted. Alot of moms attempt this and it enables. once you sparkling it the first few situations that is going to save coming back even if that's going to sparkling up finally.
