Hi there XXXXXXX
Please continue. It seems you have a viral infection with secondary bacterial infection.
You may want to give warm saline gargles a try & steaming if your upper passages are congested.
Drink lots of fluids & fruit juices to keep the hydration going & at room temperature.
You should be better in 24 hrs.
Good Luck & wish you good health!
