Are Sore Throat, Runny Nose And Cold Symptoms Of Pneumonia?
I have an ongoing and progressive sore throat, sinus drainage with some color and wheezing sounds at night that keep e awake. My concern is pneumonia. I just got back from a cruise in Mexico & Catalina as an FYI. This has gone on for about 7 days and I am becoming more and more depressed and feel I need to cry. I think because I am not getting enough deep sleep?

You can go for x-ray chest to rule out whether it is pneumonia or other chest infection. Take some antibiotic like azithromycin or levofloxacin after an expert opinion along with diominic-dca or wikoryl for running nose and cold. You can take syrup ambrodil-s or respital-p for soothing of throat and chest discomfort. Do steam inhalation as it is helpful in case of sinus drainage.
