To relieve your symptoms, you can use over-the-counter generic medications. For the leg pain and body aches, paracetamol or ibuprofen will help ease the discomfort. For your runny nose, an antihistamine like cetirizine or a saline nasal spray can reduce congestion. For the occasional cough, staying well-hydrated with warm fluids is best, but a mild cough suppressant containing dextromethorphan can be used if it becomes bothersome. Please get plenty of rest and follow the packaging instructions for correct dosages. If your symptoms worsen, persist for more than a week, or if you develop a high fever, please consult a healthcare professional.
