Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having viral infection giving this problem.
But many a time this can be bacterial infection as well so you might require one course of antibiotic like amoxicilin or levo-floxacilin for 5 days.
Continue with cough suppressant syrup.
Avoid cold drinks and junk food.
Ok and take care.
