Throat infection, cold with fever
I had the same symptoms: cold, fever and cough with swelling in lymph nodes and rest of the throat. I went to a doctor last Monday and got prescribed Okacet Cold (twice daily), MPX CV 625 (twice daily) and Pantosec (once daily) 40 mg for 3 days. I felt better by Thursday and Friday but got a bit of a pain on Saturday and by Sunday night it is once again the same. Throat hurts, voice change, nose blocked and fever.
