Hi,

By your history and description, possibility of sinusitis and lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) is more likely. Drink plenty of fluids orally and keep yourself hydrated. Do steam inhalation and warm water gargles 5-6 times a day. Take Levocetrizine and paracetamol combination twice daily.

Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.

Regards,
Dr. Kaushal Bhavsar, Pulmonologist
