Brief Answer:
Your symptoms seem to be related to an upper respiratory tract infection.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Your symptoms seem to be related to an upper respiratory tract infection.

I suggest using anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen 400 mg three tablets a day.

I also recommend to use a throat spray with antibacterial properties.

I suggest to drink liquids and rest.

The symptoms usually go away for three to five days.

If the symptoms continue for more than five days prescription antibiotics may be needed.

In this case you should consult with your doctor about the prescription.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
