Hi there. This is Dr Satya Kiran ENT Surgeon from Hyderabad. Ur symptoms suggest towards sinusitis causing throat & chest infections. Need proper ENT consultation for evaluation. How ever steam inhalations and mouth gargles would help along with antibiotics of penicillin group n nasal decongestants for short duration.
