Having Sore Throat With Stuffy Running Nose. Coughing Yellow Mucus. Throat Closed And Hoarse. Am I Having Bronchitis?

I have had a sore throat for multiple days now accompanied by stuffy/runny nose but I do experience environmental allergies which could be a contributing factor. But today I ve been coughing frequently, a lot of the time light yellow mucus . My throat feels very closed up and I am very hoarse. I have no fever but is it likely that I have bronchitis?

Hello
U have allergic rhinitis.
The condition is worsened by a recent upper respiratory tract infection.
Take a course of antibiotic and antihistaminic and a expectorant cough syrup.
To control ur persitent allergic rhinitis u have to take regular steroid nasal spray.
Avoid dust and cold.
Also take yearly influenza vaccine.
Get well soon.
