How To Deal With Runny And Congested Nose?

I have had a runny nose and congestion for the last two days. The first day my throat was a little sore. Now I have a bit of congestion and coughing and my throat feels very dry even though I have been drinking a lot of water, I am not sure what the problem is or if this is serious.

No , the problem is not serious and you seem to be having a common cold. You can take tablet cetrizine 10 mg at night , it will reduce the running nose , Please drink lots of water, it will help. please meet your doctor if you still have symptoms after 2-3 days.

Thanks
