What Causes Nasal Congestion And Cough?

I have had sinus congestion, ear clogged and post nasal drip cough for about 5 weeks. Ten days ago I took amoxicillin- clay for 10 days and really didn t notice a difference. Two days ago I started on a 6 day sequence of Prednisone and I am wondering how long it will take to name twice a difference?

Hi
Thanks for the query to H C M .
Sinus congestion , ear clogging , post nasal discharge , all these symptoms may be due to some sort of allergy .
