Cold is mild if compare with flu, it is an infection of upper respiratory tract and symptoms are sore throat, sinus pain, head congestion and a long grade fever. Its duration is from 3 days to 4 days maximum. Patient doesn’t get admitted in the hospital like flu. In flu patient becomes serious and most often they get hospitalized. The severity is maximum in flu. Asthmatic patients have high risk of catching flu. It becomes serious with these patients and older people due to their poor immune system.
Its winter time and it’s the best season for these two viral infections to get infected with any weak person. So, don’t be the best dwelling place for these health enemies. Throw them away before they take toll of your health by adopting these precautions. What are the best ways to prevent cold? Washing hands is the simplest way to prevent cold.
