Hello.
Thank you for asking at HCM.
I went through your history and would like to make you following suggestions:
1. Viral fever does not need antibiotics.
2. Cough can persist a few days (sometimes a few weeks) after viral fever. I usually treat such cough with a cough syrup.
3. I would also suggest you to take plenty of warm fluids and have good rest.
Hope above suggestions will be helpful to you.
Wish you a quick recovery and the best of the health.
Thank you & regards.
