Rest: most URI symptoms are due to viral illnesses and require rest, fluids, tylenol (acetaminophen) for relief and time for your body to fight off the illness on its own. If you have fever, difficulty breathing, or symptoms > 2 weeks, see your doctor for further evaluation

Yes: I would recommend getting an exam done. If you have a fever, chills, nausea or vomiting you should go in immediately!
