Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor. I am Chat Doctor. I understand your concern. There is no need of panic. If it was only cough then it would be mattered of concern. But in your case you have runny nose and headache which are flu like symptoms. You can take decongestants, antimissile agent for these symptoms. Also take citrus fruits and plenty of fluids. Even after this measures if u don't get relief than go to your doctor for further management. Take care.
