Hi,thank you for posting your query on health care magic.

Looking at your symptoms,you are suffering from inflammation in the respiratory tract(nose,throat,voice box-larynx,lungs).

You may find relief by taking Antihistaminic like Cetrizine,Analgesic with Anti-inflammatory like Ibuprofen with Antacid like Rantac,Oral Decongestant like Phenylephrine with Nasal Decongestant drops like Xylometazoline(use decongestant only if you are not suffering from high blood pressure,heart disease,kidney or urinary problems,high pressure in the eyes-glaucoma),Mucolytic like Ambroxol,Bronchodilator like Salbutamol.

If you are suffering from chest pain,pus discharge from nose,high grade fever,etc then it would be advisable to start oral Antibiotics after consulting Physician doctor.

Also do steam inhalation.Do warm saline gargles.Avoid cold,spicy and oily food.Avoid dust,smoke and other polllutants.Drink lots of fluids(warm).

Hope this answers your question.Get well soon.
