Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.

Thanks for your query . As per your query you have symptoms of fever, chest congestion, cough and hoarseness which seems you are suffering from upper respiratory tract infection along with laryngitis which is reason for voice hoarseness.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to take steam inhalation twice daily and keep head side little high. You should consult pulmonologist once without any delay for proper examination and treatment. Doctor may order blood test along with throat swab test, because yellow mucus is sign of bacterial infection. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics , decongestants and mucolytic agent for thinning of mucus so that it can easily come out. Drink plenty of fluids.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
