How Can severe Runny Nose Along With Sneezing Be Treated?
I have had a cough since last Thursday. On Monday, I started to have a runny nose and sneezing. Now I have all of that, plus my nose is full of mucus and so is my throat. Nothing tastes good. My room mate also had the same symptoms , but is weak like me as well. Can you suggest some thing else to do. My doctor says it will go away soon. Please help both of us out

Seems like a viral infection.
I would recommend an over the counter anti histaminic medicine like Cetirizine and an NSAID like Acetaaminophen.
I would also suggest water vapor inhalation to relieve congestion in sinuses.
Viral infections get better on their own. The above mentioned treatment will help you for the runny nose and weakness.
Hope this answers our question, thank you.
