What Causes Body Pain And Sneezing Along With Coughing?
Hello. I have severe cold symptoms since yesterday : body aches, sneezing coughing, tired, no energy (no fever). My pharmacist suggested Aleve with an antihistamine yesterday. I am prone to bronchitis and asthmatic bronchitis. Have had it twice already this winter. My situation: we are going away for 3 days on Tuesday. Tomorrow being a national holiday, my Doctor s office is closed. While not recommended I know, but could I take Penicillin VK 500 mg for tonight and tomorrow and try to see my Doctor Tuesday morning before I leave town?

Hello,
It is all part of local infection.
You can take drugs like acetaminophen for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
In that case you might require antibiotics.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
