Brief Answer:
Might be URTI, symptomatic treatment
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome.
I have gone through your query.
Based on the information provided by you I think you have upper respiratory tract infection.
Most of the time URTI are viral in nature and myalgia, generalized weakness is common with this.
Presently I would suggest you to drink plenty of water especially warm water, it helps in loosening the cough. Warm salt water gargaling 3 to 4 times a day. Steam inhalation with few drops of eucalyptus oil in it 3 - 4 times a day. You can take 5 ml of Ascoril expectorants three times a day, and tablet recofast plus thrice daily for three days. Kindly ask about this drugs with your local physician, these are prescription based agents. Kindly follow this measures, your symptoms should subside.
This provisional advice provided by me is based entirely on the input provided to me. I would suggest examination by the doctor.
I hope this suggestion might be of some help to you. Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Take care.
