Watery eyes is another symptom of viral or allegic process. Otc cough medications may help (dextromethorphan or guaifenacin) along with otc allergy medications, rest, fluids & analgesics such as Ibuprofen or acetamenophen and observation. See pcp if worse.

Allergy Medications: Your symptoms appear to be related to an allergy. I would recommend starting with claritin, zyrtec or allegra. If you have a sinus infection, you may start with any nasal decongestant, but keep in mind the side effects of prolonged use > 6 days straight. See med box. See your doctor if symptoms persist or worsen.
