Hello XXXXXXX
Thanks for the query.
You are suffering from viral throat infection.
Take hot liquids and steam inhalation.
Avoid cold drinks.
Avoid smoking,if doing.
If there ia nasal blockage,you can put some nasal drop like OTRIVIN or nasivion.
You may take some anti allergic like allegra 180 mg once a day.
There is no need to take any antibiotic.
It may take 3 to 5 days to become alright.

Do write to me ,if there is any other query.
Best of luck
Thanks
