Sore Throat, Cough, Swollen Lip To Nose, Nauseous, Took Benadryl Robitussin And Emergency. Suggestion?

Hi. Symptoms began with sore throat on right side of throat, then cough. Progressed tonight to hoarseness, a feeling of clog straight back from my chin in my throat, a suddenly swollen area on right side of lip to base of my nose. Nauseous but haven't thrown up. No fever but I have had some chills and feel exhausted. The exhaustion also could be because I've not slept much lately.
Tonight I took 2 Benadryl awhile after drinking Robitussin and EmergenC.

Welcome to HCM.
Most likely it is upper respiratory tract infection and spread to vocal cord.
Swollen lip might be due to insect bite.
You have to take proper antibiotic like amoxy/clav,azithromycin.
Nsaid with decongestant.
Warm water gargle will be helpful.
It will recover within 5 to 7 days.
Take multi vitamin supplement to relieve weakness and boost up your immunity.
Take proper sleep,avoid stress.
Consult your physician for better guidance and proper medical management.
