Upper Respiratory Tract Infection treatment in Celaya

An upper respiratory tract infection is a common condition that affects the nose, the throat, and the paranasal sinuses, almost always of viral origin and self-limited in course in most people.

Common symptoms:

• Nasal congestion and discharge
• Sore throat or throat irritation
• Cough, sneezing, and, sometimes, mild fever

When to see a doctor? If the symptoms last longer than usual, the fever is high, or difficulty breathing appears, especially in young children.

Which specialist treats it? In childhood the pediatrician is the one who evaluates these respiratory conditions; in adults the general practitioner or the otolaryngologist can provide guidance. In the presence of symptoms that do not improve or that cause concern, it is best to consult for a proper review.
