Hi,
Welcome to health care magic,

Cough,sneezing,chest congestion or nose irritation and cold are mostly due to viral infections of pharynx,sinus,larynx, epiglottis, bronchi etc.

Some times it could be due to bacterial infection also.

You may go for routine blood count and sputum examination if there is sputum to rule out infective pathology of lungs.

You will require antibiotics (quinolones or macrolides) to prevent superinfection with analgesics and antiinflammatories, antihistamines with other supportive treatment.

I don't think so you will require life long odimont-LC as in this case you will be cured by proper antibiotics and some precastionary measures.

Consult your physician for further advise
