I am experiencing dry cough and running nose since 1 week. Sometimes i even have low grade fever of around 100. I have already met the doctor and they have given me antibiotics but there is no improvement at all. I am worried please guide. Could this be some other than viral infection?? Regards Apoorv

Hello... You might have taken tablet for a week without default... If so it could be allergic or viral cough. If you are allergic to some food, whether, dust you can present with all these problems... If it's viral no need to take any medicines it will subside on its own...
