Brief Answer:
Upper respiratory tract infection

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

In addition to the medications you are taking, I would also suggest you to start on a course of antibiotics for 3 days. If I were your treating physician, I would start you on T. AMOXICLAV 625mg twice daily for 3 days. This should help you with your symptoms.

Meanwhile, also continue with steam inhalation thrice daily. Drink plenty of warm fluids and do salt water gargles 2-3 times daily.

I hope this helps,

Please feel free to discuss further
