You seem to be suffering from viral upper respiratory tract infection which is a common type of throat and nose infection in this season. You may need to take antibiotics, anti cold medicines, decongestant nasal drops and steam inhalation for faster recovery. Minor changes in mchc has nothing to do with your present infection
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
