Hello
Thank You for contacting HCM.

Is there history of fever? I would suggest you following things:
> Take Diphenhydramine + Dextromethorphan for cough.
> Take acetaminophen for fever(if occurs)
> Take hot water in a cup, add 1 table spoon salt in it. Perform gargles (mouth wash) with it three times a day for at least 3 days. It will give soothing effect.

AVOID:
> Chilled water
> Drinks
> Spicy food

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow
up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us.
Wishing you good health.
