For sore throat you have to take some antibiotic after an expert opinion preferably Azithromycin once daily with some decongestants like wikoryl or diominic-dca every 8-12 hours with rantac or omez empty stomach. For soothing of your throat you have to take syrup bro-zedex or syrup asthakind every 8-12 hourly. Do salt water gargles and steam inhalation. For conjuctivitis you have to use ciplox or gatiflox eye drops every 6-8 hours. Don't wash your eyes with water repeatdly to avoid spread of infection.
