I have had a cold for the last 8 to 9 days, with sometimes fever and headache. I was taking Allegra 120 at night, but today my condition feels worse, and I even did a CBC blood test. What should I do now, and is there any other medicine I can take?
A cold lasting more than a week, with fever and headache, may suggest a persistent viral infection or a sinus-related problem. Rest, warm fluids, and steam inhalation may help relieve congestion and discomfort. Since your symptoms are worsening, the test results may need medical review. Consult a doctor with your CBC report for proper evaluation and suitable treatment.
