Hi Sharon..

Thanks for contacting HCM for health query.

You have stuffy nose ,mild diarrhoea and no fever.

You have tried home remedies and it is now fifth day of illness.

I think we need to interfere now because if it is a viral origin it should have got settled now.

If I have a patient like this in my outpatient department I would start on a combo of antibiotics which has broad spectrum activity like ciprofloxacin and tinidazole.

You need to meet a doctor in person to get yourself examined and to give you suggestion.

As a remedy for now go for steam inhalation and include probiotics like yogurt in your diet.

Hope this helps.

Take care
