I'm dealing with a persistent cough for about a week now, along with a stuffy nose, an itchy feeling in my throat, and a lot of sneezing. I also had a fever for a couple of days, but that's gone away. Should I be worried about these symptoms, and is there anything specific I should do to start feeling better?
