[|AI|]  Elcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have bad cough and cold along with mucus and impaired hearing which is due to bacterial infection leading to strep throat along with upper respiratory tract infection. Need not worry about it.  I would suggest you to take steam inhalation and do warm saline gargles 3 to 4 times a day. You should avoid cold carbonated beverages. You should take you take nasal decongestant sprays, antihistamines and antibiotic combination as infection is present. Visit ENT specialist/ pediatrician once and get it examined and start treatment after proper diagnosis. Get X-Ray chest done. Take soft foods to avoid irritation to the throat. Throat lozenges one every 4 hours is helpful.  Chat Doctor. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
