Hello,

I think you need antibiotics because you have a fever and an infection is present. You should use antibiotics for 7-10 days as a doctor prescribes.

You can take antihistamines to relieve symptoms but the first are antibiotics. Eat healthily, breathe in humidity air rest.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
