She seems to be suffering from viral upper respiratory tract infection which is a common type of throat and nose infection in this season. She may need to take antibiotics, anti cold medicines and decongestant nasal drops for few days for faster recovery. Since she has got all the medicines she needs she can take it
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
