Cold, cough and sore throat
I have been experiencing a cold with symptoms including nasal congestion, sneezing, and a sore throat for the past [number] of days. It is accompanied by mild coughing and occasional headaches. Despite trying home remedies like steam inhalation, warm fluids, and saltwater gargles, the symptoms persist and cause discomfort. Breathing feels slightly restricted due to the congestion, and I feel fatigued. There is no fever, but the cold does not seem to improve. Please advise if any medication or further steps are required to manage this condition effectively. Your guidance would be highly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Please consult a General Physician in your area for a physical examination. Without a physical examination it is not correct to advise antibiotics.
