Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Welcome to Health Care Magic.

Thanks for writing.

I am Dr.Muhammad Ahmad. I have read your question completely, i understand your concern and will try to help you in best way possible.

There are a few things which can help bigtime with your symptoms.

1) Steam inhalation can help you big time I would suggest it twice daily for 4..5 minutes.
2) Take tablet Alegra-D it will help with body aches and fever if any plus help with congestion as well.
3) Do take some OTC antihistamin dsoly at night for example citerizine or loratidine 10mg daily at night this will help will allergy and runny nose.
4) Get a good OTC cough syrup and use it.
5) Steamy bath does help toom
6) Hot drinks help protecting you from dry throat and irritation specially green tea is good for this.

If things keep getting worsened and you start running high fever then you would probably need antibiotics then I would suggest you to visit your doctor, otherwise in my opinion my suggestions will help you much to get better quick.

I hope this answered your question, a
if you have more please feel free to ask.

Regrads.
