Answers:

You definitely have an infection and need to get medical attention as soon as you can. Upper Respiratory Infections can become serious if not treated appropriately.

Meanwhile - do not take anything that we suggest if it is contraindicated based on your personal medical history!

Here's what I do:
(based on your time zone, you are in the Middle East or Africa, so I will put the generic chemical names of the medications)
• Take over-the-counter pain relievers like Ibuprofen or Acetaminophen (if you have both, you can combine them -- they are 2 different classes of medications) they will also reduce fever;
• Decongestant (pseudoephedrine) and/or Expectorant (guaifenesin);
• Steam to open your nasal passages and moisten/loosen the mucus;
• Salt water gargle to kill some of the germs in your throat;
• Cough drops with eucalyptus can help open your nasal passages;
• Lots of clear fluids (hot herbal tea with honey is good!);
• Prop your head up to a 40º angle to help the mucus drain - try to get it out of your system by blowing your nose or by spitting it out so that it does not go into your lungs or stomach.
