Detailed Answer:
Hi
II am Dr Mittal.
I have read your query.I think I may be able to help you.

The symptoms that you have mentioned are suggesting that the possibility of a upper respiratory tract infection may be considered.

The treatment of the conditions include-
1. An antibiotic cover, specially if you have a fever.
2. A paracetamol cover for the fever or associated bodyache.

In this condition, non pharmacy treatment is important too.
This will include-
A. Steam inhalation 4 time per day.
B. Warm saline gargles 4 time per day.

A course of multi vitamin will have a great effect. And of course, you need to have plenty of fluids.

I am sure that you will be able to get relief.
Best of luck.
Dr Mittal.
