How To Treat Cold In A Person Suffering From Gastritis?

I have gastritis; a recent test reflected too much congestion in the stomach & the sm bowel/intestines. Now I have a cold and doctors don t seem to know how to treat this, other than with an antibiotic. What should I be eating or should I be eating? Any suggestion on how to get the cold to subside; it s been 10days now. I can barely use cough drops to refrain from coughing; feels like I could strangle on them and they cause my tinnitus to be worse.
