It is important to see a doctor since your symptoms have persisted for 3 days without improvement despite taking azithromycin and cough syrup.

🩺 What This Likely Means

Your symptoms of runny nose, dry cough, and throat congestion are often caused by viral infections, which antibiotics like azithromycin do not treat. Lack of improvement suggests it may not be a bacterial infection or that another cause is involved.

⚠️ When to Seek Urgent Care

• If you develop high fever, difficulty breathing, chest pain, or worsening symptoms
• If you experience severe allergic reactions such as rash, swelling, or shortness of breath

🩺 Next Steps

• Consult a general physician or an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist for a thorough evaluation
• They may recommend symptomatic treatment, further tests, or alternative medications
• Avoid self-medicating with antibiotics without medical advice
