Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Yes, you should definitely consult doctor.
Viral infection is usually self limiting in 1-2 weeks time.
You still not improving even after 3 weeks of time. So you need medicines for recovery.
Possibility of rhinitis and bronchitis is more.
Inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or salmeterol), antibiotics and intranasal steroid (fluticasone) spray are needed.
Since all these are prescribed drugs, you have to consult doctor.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
