Brief Answer:
Possible Upper Respiratory tract infection.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,

I understand your concern.

You possibly seem to have mild upper respiratory tract infection.

I generally treat my patients with these complaints with oral tablets of Tab.Sinarest twice daily for 3 days,Tab.Azithral 500 mg once daily for 3 days and Syrup.Grillinctus/Zedex 5ml twice daily.So please check with your doctor if he prescribes the same.

If symptoms still persist I advise you to get Complete blood picture, QBC for MP, Widal test, urine microscopy, Chest X-ray in the nearest laboratory.

Take hot liquids like soups, milk etc.

Prefer home foods and mineral water.

Post your further queries if any,

Thank you.
