Answers:
It wouldnt be to bad of idea to have someone listen to your lungs and make sure you dont have crackles or fluid sounds!. If you are young, I would say fight the fight, dont usually need antibiotics!. Try taking 1000mg of Vit C in the morning and evening and try some mucinex Over the counter to help break up the mucous so you can clear the congestion!. Take tylenol for any fever!. Id have someone listen to your lungs though, you dont want pneumonia!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
