Suggest me what to do to treat body pains and severe headaches

Resolved question:

) thank you for your prompt reply. I have done steaming relations for the past four days. I took the inhalations for once daily. Now the colour of the secretions from my nose turned green. When I pull out the secretions from my nose through my throat,I happened to notice that the secretions are thick, green and smelly. I have been continuously taking Levocetrizine, but that couldn't help me. Now also suffering from severe headache, which is unbearable. I'm also having body pains that prevent me to do my daily activities. Please suggest me what to do now. I have a lot of work that is pending,because of this simple cold.

Hello. Thanks for updating us with your query.

Steaming inhalations that I have advised in my previous reply, are to be done for a minimum of three times a day with a no limit for the maximum number. The response to steam inhalation depends on the frequency of taking it and also the method you are using. Now, as for your description you are common cold, which is a viral infection has turned out to be a bacterial infection. I would recommend you to do the following:

1)avoid cold weather.

2)Avoid cold liquids and foods.

3)Take steaming inhalations are at least three times a day.

4)Do some breathing exercises to relieve your nose block.

5)Use antihistamines such as Levocet for symptomatic relief.

6)Consider using antibiotics if necessary, or as indicated by the physician.

However, I request you to consult your physician to assess your status for further treatment, If the symptoms persists.

Hope this helps.
