Next Steps
for Fever & chills take tab Paracetamol 500 mg or 650 mg 1 tab every 6–8 hrs as needed
Nasal block Steam inhalation + Otrivin nasal drops (xylometazoline) 1–2 drops in blocked nostril, max 3x/day (not >5 days)
Throat pain : Saltwater gargle + Lozenges (like Strepsils) Every few hours

Cold + fever If needed: Cetrizine at night 1 tab once daily for 2–3 days
🛑 Avoid unnecessary antibiotics unless advised by a doctor.
