Hello,
After going through your medical details I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that line of treatment for a sore throat and cold has been followed properly if you still have nasal congestion and a sore throat then kindly avoid cold or chilled stuff and take nebulizer 2-3 time with gargles for another week.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
