Cold/cough/sore throat

2015-09-27 11:34:36
Hello doc, I have thick cold for the past few days along with a very sore throat. Upper part of the throat hurts a lot on intake of any solid or liquid. I suspect common cold and throat infection. Please suggest some medication to ease it off or get rid of it. Thanks in advance.
