[|Human|] You know how it gets with everyone running to the doc for a fix.  I would like to know if I am sick enough to help.  Can a visit to the doc fix me?  I started with a fever and aches and sneezing on Saturday.  Sunday more of the same only a sore throat and a cough, Monday it started to hurt to cough in my ribs and throat, my ears hurt when I swallow.  I cant talk without coughing.  I dont want to eat.  I have been drinking lots so I dont cough.  My nose is runny.  When I climb the stairs I have to lay down and catch my breath.  I have been taking tylenol or ibuprofen every 6 hours alternately.  Any suggestions?
[|AI|]  Hi, welcome to Chat Doctor, the above complaints suggest that you got Viral upper respiratory tract infection.I suggest you to take tab paracetamol 500 mg three times a day and whenever required there on.It's also better to take tab levocetrizine 5 mg once at night for runny nose till symptoms subside... since it looks like viral no antibiotics required...get well soon... if any queries please feel free to ask...
