Hi! I'm currently in Mexico (Cancun) on vacation until the 10th. My boyfriend got food poisoning this past Friday and, on Saturday morning, I woke up with a slightly sore throat. I didn't think anything of it because it was high on the throat and I wrote it off as the air conditioning. However, it hasn't gone away and has gotten slightly worse and new symptoms have begun. Yesterday, my ears clogged a couple times and a small bumpy rash (hardly any color) appeared on my face and neck, worse on my left side. Now, when I just woke up at 5 am to use the restroom, I see that my left ear is also rash and slightly swollen and it kind of aches/hurts between my throat and this left ear. I have no allergies that I'm aware of, don't believe I'm running ant fever, and I don't feel nauseous. I even had enough energy for chicken Itza and cannot swimming yesterday. My nose is a tad stuffy now as well. Any idea what is happening? What I can do to treat myself while in Mexico? I've had strep often, but my throat looks clear and I've never had a rash or symptoms like this - it is causing a bit of worry.
