General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe, you have a cold due to the allergy, or viral infection.
I advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have some blood tests to find the diagnosis, and to look any secondary infection.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms cifixime,phenylephrine, citrizine, and paracetamol.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and protein rich foods to have good recovery, and resistance .
wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
