Hi Mam,

Welcome to HCM.

I can understand your concern.

I generally advise my patients with these symptoms with oral tablets of Tab.Levocet and Tab.Sinarrest twice daily for 3-5 days.Discuss with your doctor whether he shares my view.

I suggest you to get Complete blood picture,Qbc for Malarial parasite,Dengue antibodies and widal test if symptoms persist even after taking medication.

Avoid stress and anxiety.

Take plenty of water and hot liquids for quick relief.

Post your further queries if any,

Thank you.
