The common cold and influenza (flu) are viral infections that affect the respiratory system.

Cold and flu viruses spread through:
Treating cold and flu involves managing symptoms and allowing the body to recover naturally. Resting and staying hydrated are essential for recovery. Over-the-counter medications like ibuprofen or acetaminophen can help reduce fever and body aches. Decongestants and antihistamines may relieve nasal congestion and other symptoms. Steam inhalation can also ease breathing. In severe cases, doctors may prescribe antiviral medications to shorten the duration of the flu and prevent complications.
