A headache with a cold is usually due to a viral infection, such as a common cold or sinus congestion. Rest, drink plenty of fluids, and take mild pain relievers or decongestants if needed. See a doctor if the headache is severe, fever develops, or symptoms last more than a week.

Your symptoms may indicate a viral infection, such as the common cold. Asthalin Syrup (Salbutamol) and Solvin Cold Tablet (Paracetamol, Phenylephrine, and Chlorpheniramine) can help relieve cough and congestion, while Meftagesic Tablet (Mefenamic acid and Paracetamol) can reduce fever or pain. Hifen 100 mg Tablet (Cefixime) is an antibiotic, and it is generally not needed for a mild viral infection. You should consult your doctor promptly to review your treatment.

Cough, cold, headache, fever, and shivering are commonly due to a viral infection like the flu. Take rest, plenty of fluids, paracetamol for fever, and symptomatic cold/cough medicines. See a doctor if the fever is high, lasts more than 3 days, or symptoms worsen.

For fever and cold, Solvin Cold Tablet can help relieve symptoms like a runny nose, sneezing, and mild fever. Rest well, and drink plenty of fluids. If symptoms persist for more than a few days or worsen, see a doctor.

For treating sinus issues, several generic medications can help relieve your symptoms. To ease facial pain and headaches, pain relievers like paracetamol or ibuprofen are highly effective. For nasal congestion, oral decongestants like pseudoephedrine or short-term nasal sprays like oxymetazoline can quickly clear blocked passages. If allergies are triggering your sinus issues, antihistamines like cetirizine or loratadine are helpful. Additionally, nasal steroid sprays such as fluticasone work well to reduce sinus inflammation. Simple saline nasal rinses are also great for clearing mucus. If symptoms persist for more than 10 days, please consult a doctor for a proper evaluation.

Persistent cough and cold even after sinus surgery may be due to ongoing allergy, asthma, post-nasal drip, acid reflux, or incomplete sinus healing rather than infection alone. Since long-term antibiotics have not helped, you should revisit your ENT specialist for re-evaluation and possibly allergy testing or further investigations.
