Malad East – Best Treatment For Colds
Common cold symptoms
Cold symptoms include a runny nose, nasal congestion, sneezing, and a scratchy or sore throat. They can also cause a headache, achy muscles, and a fever. Children usually get more colds than adults, because of their immature immune systems and close contact with other kids in school or daycare settings.
Many different types of viruses can cause a cold. However, rhinoviruses are the most common cause of a cold.
A common cold can be prevented by washing hands often and avoiding contact with people who are sick. It is also important to cover coughs and sneezes with tissue. Also, avoid sharing drinking glasses or eating utensils with other people. This can spread the germs that cause a cold. Avoid smoking and secondhand smoke, because these can weaken your immune system.
Common cold medicine
The best treatment for colds is over-the-counter medications that ease symptoms and allow you to rest. Most people recover within a week without any complications. You can prevent the spread of the virus by washing your hands frequently.
Acetaminophen (Tylenol) relieves headache and pain. Antihistamines, such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl(r)), reduce runny nose and sneezing. Decongestants, such as pseudoephedrine (Contac Cold 12 Hour(r) and Sudafed(r), thin mucus and relieve congestion. Cough suppressants, such as dextromethorphan (Robitussin(r) and Vicks DayQuil Cough(r), reduce coughing.
Vitamin C significantly decreases cold symptoms in some studies, but evidence is mixed. Ginseng and allicin also show promise, but need more research. However, there is no evidence that CAM treatments, such as garlic and echinacea, help prevent or treat the common cold.
Common cold treatment
Colds are caused by viruses, not bacteria. As a result, antibiotics do not treat them. Instead, you can use OTC medications to ease symptoms, like a sore throat or congestion. You can also try home remedies, such as salt gargles or getting plenty of rest. If your symptoms don’t improve after a week, make an appointment with a doctor.
Children and babies get colds more often than adults, because they haven’t had as many exposures to germs and their immune systems aren’t yet fully developed. To help prevent them from catching and spreading a cold, teach them to cover their coughs and sneezes with tissue and to wash their hands regularly. Sipping plenty of fluids and using saline nasal rinses can also help. Taking flu vaccines each year is also important.
Common cold caused by
Colds are caused by a virus and usually involve a runny nose, nasal congestion, sneezing, sore throat and cough. Most cold symptoms clear up in about a week. Over-the-counter medications can help ease your symptoms. Many contain a pain reliever/fever reducer, a decongestant and an antihistamine. Examples include NyQuil and DayQuil SEVERE.
You can catch a cold by breathing in droplets of cold germs that other people release when they sneeze or cough. You can also get them by touching something with a cold virus on it and then touching your eyes, mouth or nose. Kids are more likely to get a cold because their immune systems are not as mature as adults’. They can also be more exposed to germs in school and day care settings.
