Dear Customer , This is Dr. S. Tomar from healthcaremagic.com's medical team and I ll be your medical advisor for this question. First of all thank you for sharing your concern with us and showing trust on us.
Such manifestations are indicative that you are having respiratory infection . A chest x ray and CBC should be done to know the exact cause . If you had any upper respiratory infection in last 2 weeks and these manifestations are continuing from that infection then it could be a bacterial infection and antibiotics will be needed . Gargle with salt water multiple times a day . If you get fever also then contact your PCP straight away as there might be need of antibiotic course as well .

This is my initial response and discussion is open until you have any query or need further clarification.
I wish you good health .
Thank you for your question and feel free to contact further for any question .
