Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your husband have symptoms are of sore throat, cough, low grade fever, nasal bleeding and body aches which seems to be due to viral infection. Your symptom of fever off and on is because your immunity is lower down because of infection. Antibiotics will not give much relief to you as yours symptoms are more like viral infection. You should take paracetamol to prevent fever and combination of decongestants and multivitamin tablet. Your symptoms will resolve in 5-7 days. I would suggest you to visit general physician once and get complete examination done and get vaccination done. You should do warm saline gargles.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
