Body Pain, Salty Taste In Mouth. Taking Amoxicillin For Cold And Cough, Nasal Spray, No Relief. Cure For Symptoms?

I have recently been on a short course of amoxicillin 500mg 3 x day for 5 days for a very bad cough , cold, infection. The course has stopped but I am left still feeling full of aches and pains but the worse thing is that I cannot taste anything other than a salty taste in my mouth and salty mucus . I went to my doctors last week who prescribed some nasal spray for allergies!? Its not working anyhow, whats wrong with me please?
