Hello,
I read your message and understood your medical issue.
It looks like a
common cold which can be resolved by itself within a week. Anyway, if the symptoms persist and/or become more severe in the next two days then please consult with your doctor.
Try saline sprays to keep your nostrils clean from the mucus.
Keeping your nose blocked may contribute to discomfort and may raise the pressure in the
sinuses causing headache and sometimes earaches.
Fever may increase the intracranial pressure which is more evident when you cough and causes pain in the back of your head.
Try to maintain a good nutrition, stay hydrated and use OTC drugs for the cold. Take plenty of rest. If
acetaminophen does not relieve your pain you may try
ibuprofen. Mixture pills containing
paracetamol,
pseudoephedrine and
chlorpheniramine can help ease the cough and spasms.
If you have phlegm, then, can use mucolytics that can help dissolve the phlegm and clear your respiratory pathways.
Vapu rubs when applying on your back and chest can help with breathing especially at night.
Aerosol-therapy and keep your room well humidified can help too.
If after all these measures, you won't get better or feel worse, or get higher temperature, should see your doctor as soon as possible.
Hope this is helpful for you. Wish fast recovery.
Dr.Albana
