What Do Prolonged Cough, Headache, Metallic Taste And Pain In Throat Suggest?

hi, I have been having this cough for 5 days now. Along with it I have a headache, it hurts my eyes to look anywhere other than in front of me, there is this weird metalic/irony taste at the back of my throat. My throat has started to hurt from coughing so much. And I have been waking up disorientated since the cough started. Any idea what it could be? \

As mentioned in your history it is clear that you are suffering from severe throat infection. For this you have to take tab Azithromycin 500 mg once daily after meals for 3 days with tab diominic-dca or tab no-cold thrice daily after meals as decongestant with cap omez or cap pantop twice daily empty stomach. For cough you have to take syrup ambrodil-plus or syrup gerifen-sr 2 tsf thrice daily after meals. Also you have to do salt water gargles and steam inhalation for soothing of your throat and it will reduce the congestion in the throat as well as throat pain.
