It is important to see a doctor since your cold and cough have lasted more than three days without improvement despite taking anti-allergy medication.

🩺 What This Likely Means

Your symptoms may not be due to allergies alone and could indicate a viral or bacterial infection, or another cause that requires different treatment than antihistamines like cetirizine.

🩺 Next Steps You Should Take

• Consult a general physician or an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist for a thorough evaluation.
• They may recommend additional treatments such as cough suppressants, decongestants, or antibiotics if a bacterial infection is suspected.
• Monitor for worsening symptoms like high fever, difficulty breathing, chest pain, or persistent severe cough, which require urgent medical attention.

⚠️ When to Seek Urgent Care

• Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath
• Chest pain or pressure
• High fever not responding to medication
