Question

Every one suffers from the common cold at some time or other

Answer 1

The common cold

There is only one disease called common: the common cold. We call it the common cold because every year millions of people catch it.

Everybody knows the symptoms: a runny nose, a slight fever, coughing and sneezing. It is very unpleasant, but nobody knows a cure.

At the drugstore, there are usually shelves with cold "cures". These medicines don't cure a cold, but they do relieve the symptoms. Whatever you do, your cold will last for a few days and then disappear.

How can you help prevent a cold? Eat well, exercise and you will be fit and healthy.
