Hi Dear,
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of runny nose and chest congestion which is due to severe upper respiratory infection and compromised immune system of body.
Need not to worry. I would suggest you to visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. You should get paranasal sinus x-ray and chest x-ray done so as to detect level of infection and treatment can be started accordingly. You should avoid use of spicy, sharp oily and fried food substances. Apply mist humidifiers in room. You should take throat soothing agents. You should take combination of antibiotic Levofloxacin along with antihistamine such as Levocetirizine. You should do warm saline rinses 3-4 times a day. You should avoid cold carbonated beverages.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
