Ive been having cold symptoms more than a week. It started like allergies, first started with sore throat and sneezing, then sinus congestion, low grade temperature and now having cough and chest congestion especially at night. I feel less energy to go to work and especially not feelig well from evening to night time. Decreased appetite as well. Should I see my doctor and maybe get atibiotics?
Hi welcome to the Chat Doctor Yes You have to consult pulmonologist or nearby doctor for examination ... Bronchitis or early pneumonia like infection seems most likely here Your work up needs to be Done with Auscultation and chest x-ray only if needed Decongestant like phenylephrine and suitable antibiotic prescribed for your condition vitamin C lozenges useful Avoid smoking Take one tsp ginger juice with honey daily Salt water gargle done three times a day Take care Consult physician for examination
