Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your health query and can very well understand your health concerns..

As per your symptoms you are suffering from UPPER RESPIRATORY TRACT INFECTION also known as COMMON COLD and is a common Viral infection..

As it is a viral infection antibiotics are of no use as they act only against Bacterias..
You can take Bromfed as it will help in relieving cough and congestion as well as sneezing..
For nasal congestion you can use nasal spray containing Xylomtazoline and steam inhalations..
For fever you can take Tylenol or Paracetamol to bring down body temperature as well as help reducing body and throat aches..
Warm saline gargles and Throat lozenges can be relieving for sore throat..
Chew a Vitamin C pellet daily..
Use a humidifier at home..
Take sufficient rest..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
