Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns.

As per your complain it seems that you are suffering from upper respirtory tract infection also known as common cold and this is leading to cough, phlegm and nasal and chest congestion..
Nothing to worry you can take a course of antibiotics like Azithromycin as it will help in preventing secondary bacterial infection..
Take tylenol for generalized lethargy and rise in body temperature..
Take anti allergics like Levocetrizine fo cough, decongestants like Pseudoephadrine for congestion, mucoltics like Ambroxol and also do steam inhalations and use a humidifier in your room..
Take ample of warm fluids and suck throat lozenges..
Avoid spicy and chilled foods..
Chew Vitamin C pellet daily to boost immunity..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
