allergic pharyngo bronchitis.

Detailed Answer:
Hi, thanks for your query. In my opinion, you might be having allergic pharyngo bronchitis.
Antibiotics will not help you until and unless there is infection.
If I were your treating doctor, I would have prescribed antihistamines + mucolytics combination drugs twice daily for 2 weeks. Avoid oily and cold items. Steam inhalation daily twice may be helpful. hope my answers have helped you. Thanks.
