Common Cold
The common cold is a mild viral infection of the upper respiratory tract, mainly the nose and throat. It is very common, usually resolves on its own, and spreads easily between people.
Common symptoms:
- Nasal congestion or runny nose
- Sneezing and sore throat
- Mild cough and general malaise
- Sometimes a low-grade fever
When to see a doctor? Although most cases improve with home care, it is advisable to consult if the symptoms are prolonged, worsen, a high fever appears, or there is difficulty breathing.
Who can guide you? The general practitioner, the family physician and, in children, the pediatrician can evaluate it and rule out other causes. If the discomfort does not improve as expected or concerns you, a visit helps clarify the picture and receive reliable guidance.
