Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have had a fever, persistent cough, headache, body pain, and runny nose for the past few days. Even after taking medications, I am not getting any relief. Do my symptoms indicate an H3N2 infection? If so, how to manage this condition?

Please help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I went through your query and understood your concern.

It may be an H3N2 viral infection. So, I suggest you follow the instructions mentioned below.

1. Take lukewarm water thrice daily.

2. Take steam inhalation thrice daily.

3. Do gargle with salt or turmeric powder in water twice a day.

4. Take a tablet of Pantoprazole (antacid) on an empty stomach for five days.

5. Take a tablet of Paracetamol (painkiller) twice daily for five days.

6. Take a tablet of Allegra (Fexofenadine) once daily for five to seven days.

7. Take a tablet of Zathrin (Azithromycin) 500 milligrams once daily after food for five days.

8. Take a good cough syrup thrice daily for five days.

Kindly consult a specialist doctor, talk with them, and take medicines with their consent.

I hope this has helped you.

Thanks and regards.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
