Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of sore throat and running nose after exercising. Well the symptoms you mention in query occur due to many reasons like upper respiratory infection ( bacterial or viral ). Need not to worry. I would suggest you to consult chest specialist . Doctor may order certain test like nose or throat culture and test , blood test , viral culture test and chest X-ray to confirm the diagnosis and rule out other condition like viral infection. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics , anti inflammatory and decongestants. For now take over-the-counter cough medicines, cough suppressants, or expectorants , which give relief from coughing .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
