What Is The Treatment For Sore Throat , Sinus Congestion And Fever?
I've been having cold symptoms more than a week. It started like allergies, first started with sore throat and sneezing, then sinus congestion, low grade temperature and now having cough and chest congestion especially at night. I feel less energy to go to work and especially not feelig well from evening to night time. Decreased appetite as well. Should I see my doctor and maybe get atibiotics?

Decongestant like phenylephrine and suitable antibiotic prescribed for your condition
Vitamin C lozenges useful

Salt water gargle done three times a day
Take care
Consult physician for examination
