Hi, I have gone through your query.I suggest the following treatment: 1 Gargle with Povidine Iodine solution 3 times a day. 2--An Antihistaminic Cetrizine 10mg 1 tab at bed time. 3--A Cough Syp 10ml 3 times a day. You may also try inhalation with Karvol 3 times a day.The above medicines have to be taken for 10 days.The gargle & inhalation are for 3 days.
