<s>[INST]Hello, I am 36 years old. This will be my 3rd day with zero voice. Dry cough, tight achy chest. Almost feels like its hard to breath. I have a 5 month old baby....that I am breast feeding. Very worried about her getting whatever I have. At what point should I take myself to docter? Or ER? I read up on laryangitus and its seems like most people said to wait...awhile before seeing docter. Thank you....Leia Barrientos[/INST]Hello dear Leia Barriers, warm welcome to Chat Doctor.come have evaluated your query thoroughly.* Evaluating the severity of congestion, I strongly recommend visiting to your family doctor immediately.* Till that time primary relief with gargles with salted lukewarm water added peppermint oil 3 times a day will help. Hope this clears your doubt . Wishing you fine recovery. Welcome for any further assistance. Regards take care.</s>
