Take Vit C 500mg tablet once daily for a week. Eat plenty of citrous fruits.
Have plenty of fluids.
Take Paracetamol 500mg tablet twice daily for 3 days and thereafter sos
Take Levocetrizine 5mg tablet twice daily for 5 days
Take Azithral 500mg tablet 1 tab per day for 3 days
Do a throat swab culture sensitivity testing if possible.

But dont self medicate.Get a clinical checkup from your doctor and take his advice.
