Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query in HealthcareMagic,

I have read through your query,

From the description that you have provided, you seem to have symptoms pertaining to a flu or sinusitis.

I would suggest you to do the following:
- Take T. FEXOFENADINE twice daily for 5 days.

- Syrup. TUSQ-D one teaspoon twice daily

- Steam inhalation 2-3 times daily.

- If you have symptoms like fever, headache, body pain, you can take T. DOLO 650mg 2-3 times daily or as an when needed.

- If at all, you find symptoms to be increasing, and also have associated symptoms like fever, productive cough with yellowish sputum, you may have to start on a course of antibiotics.

- As for diet, consume plenty of fluids, and take foods which are less spicy and oily.

I hope this helps,

Please feel free to discuss further,

Regards
