Hi,
Thank you for choosing Healthcaremagic. you can give plain paracetamol tablets if there is fever associated, try steam inhalation and home remedies, if the symptoms persists you need to consult a doc for antibiotics if required. I usually give anti histamines along with paracetamol for my patients with similar complaints.
Please ask if you have more questions. If you are satisfied, please make sure that your ACCEPT my answer so that I receive credit. Good luck!!
