HI
Well come to HCM
Viral infection is likely and this can be well treated with the symptomatic medicines alone as you are taking this, everything would be fine soon, in very rare case this needs antibiotic if secondary infection is there, be patience till then, hope this information helps, take care, have a nice day.
