About Cold and Flu
The common cold and influenza are viral infections of the nose, throat and airways. A cold tends to be gentle and slow to build, while flu typically strikes fast with fever and severe muscle pain.
Care and Treatment for Cold and Flu
The doctor can tell whether your symptoms fit a viral illness, rule out more serious causes, suggest symptom relief and advise whether it is sensible to fly or travel on. Antibiotics do not work against viruses and are only considered when a bacterial complication appears. Typical choices are rest, fluids, paracetamol or ibuprofen, saline nasal spray and throat lozenges.
- Saline nasal spray or steam to ease congestion
- Wash hands often and cover coughs
