Posted on Tue, 22 Jul 2014
Question: I had a night out on Friday evening. Followed which I got a throat infection on Saturday morning. Almost from Saturday noon, I'm having cold. Due to heavy cold, got fever on Sunday morning and still on Monday noon (now), I'm having minor fever, cough, cold and sore throat.
I've taken 3 strepsils so far because of sore throat and one combiflam on Sunday noon.
Please guide me on how should I proceed with medication/rest.

Brief Answer:
Rest and symptomatic medicine is allright

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I feel that one more day of rest will make you more active. You can contineu to take good amount of fluids. Leave coffee, alcohol to get better faster.

The medicines that you already took were good enough. Please continue to rest, warm salt water gargles and strepsils.

Hope this helps.
