Thanks for your question on HCM. In my opinion you are having severe upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) Due to viral infection.
So better to follow these.
1. Drink plenty of fluids.
2. Warm water gargles 5-6 times a day.
3. Anti histamine drugs.
4. Anti inflammatory drugs.
5. Macrolide group of antibiotic.
Try to follow these for 5 days. If not improved than consult doctor.
