Hi, Thanks for using HCM. The symptoms of cold, cough and sneezing may be due to allergy, may be allergic rhinites. You can continue nasal spray with maoetasone furoate for its management with paracetamol as anti inflammatory and alaspan as anti histamine drug For feeling to have fluid in lungs get done one chest xray and echo to rule out any major problem. Or else the above drugs will help. Have adequate regular sleep, plenty of fluids, nutritious diet with required calorie and regular outdoor exercises for your wellbeing. Hope I answered your question. Consult your doctor for further management. Feel free to ask me if you have any further queries. Wish you good health. Take care.
This appears to be allergic sinoorhinitis which will cause sneezing and coughing as well as tiredness.Flucatisone nasal spray and oral Monteleukast, a leukotriene inhibitor will help.
