I've been dealing with a sore throat and cough, and I've already tried taking Alex and Moxikind, but it hasn't gotten any better, and it's been a whole week now. Could you recommend another medicine or treatment option that might help? I'm getting a bit worried about it.

I'm feeling really worried because I've been having a high fever with shivering for the past two days, but it seems to get better when I take Paracetamol. On top of that, I've got this bad cough and a runny nose. It's been really tough dealing with it all at once. Is this something I should be concerned about? What could be causing these symptoms?

That looks like Flu,no need to worry consume balanced diet and stay hydrated,if it's becoming worse visit Physician for evaluation and treatment
