Suggest Remedy For Cough And Nasal Congestion

I woke up four days ago with a very sore throat and swollen glands. The next day I had a runny nose and the sore throat. The day after that, I had nasal congestion and my sore throat wasn't bad at all. Today, I started with some congestion and no sore throat. But, later today I threw up and got a temperature of 99.5 degrees with a runny nose and a wet cough.

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns....

As per your complain the symptoms seems consistent with upper respiratory tract infection Commonwealth known as Common Cold..
You can take a short course of antibiotics like Levofloxacin, take Tylenol for fever and aches, take decongestant like Pseudoephadrine for relieving congestion, take cough expectorant containing Guaifenesin, do steam inhalation, warm saline gargles and sip plenty of warm water..
Use a humidifier in your room..
Avoid spicy and chilled foods..
