Hello
Thank you for trusting HCM
Dear may useful for fever and headache but it won't decrease the pharygeal wall congestion.
Use water vapour inhalation and salt water gargling thrice a day for five days.
Use levocetrizine twice a day for five days. Use xylometazolin tablet twice a day for five days.
Avoid spicy food and alcohol.
If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Take care
