What Causes Cough Along With Nasal Congestion?

I have not been around anyone that I know of that has a cold. I have a productive cough that sounds deep in the chest, lots of nasal congestion and drainage which is clear. I don t really feel sick (no fever or less energy), but this cough is weird. I do have year round allergies, but I never have a cough even when I have a cold.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

These seem like symptoms of flu, it's generally accompanied by rhinitis signs and cough that may last for some weeks.
I suggest you to take Mucolytic (Carbocisteine) agents to help, cough and thicken mucus. Also you can take Amoxicillin, twice daily for a week.

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

Regards,
Dr. Suela Gjata,
