Hello
1. U have cough and cold because of that u have fever as it is a way ur body fights infection. So when your cough and cold gets treated , fever will also come down.
2. There are few excellent remedies for cough and cold. I will tell u simplest of them.
A. Turmeric milk: boil milk 1 glass add 1 tsp turmeric , pinch of salt (yes salt it becomes more edible; many people add honey instead) and 1/2 tsp of ghee/butter. Mix well n consume hot sip by sip.
B. Saffron milk: boil milk 1 glass add 1/4 tsp of saffron n 1 tbsp of honey. Mix well n consume hot sip by sip.
C. Herbal broth: boil 2 cups water add 3/4 tsp of v coarsely ground black pepper + 1 inch stick of cinnamon+ 2 cloves crushed garlic + 1/ 2 inch ginger smashed/ finely chopped+ 2 tbsp of fresh mint leaves+ 1 to 2 pods of cardamom+ 2 cloves+ salt to taste. Consume hot .
D. Mix 2tsp honey with 1 glass warm water n drink sip by sip.
E. Mix ginger powder with jaggery in proportion of 1: 2 add Lil ghee/butter. heat a Lil and make small balls n keep it in ur mouth .. will prevent cough.
3. For sore throat above remedies will help. Along with that u can gargle using warm water mixed with salt this will reduce inflammation (swelling) of throat.
4. Taking water steam with few drops of eucalyptus oil will relieve stuffiness in nose n chest.
