I always dread the fall because it's common cold season. I do not fare well with common colds as it always turns into pnemonia or a severe sinus infection because my immune system is weak.
You should take vitamin C - there is evidence that regular use may shorten the length of colds.
Interesting, I will have to try that! What else do you know about colds?
Well, it's a viral infection that usually affects the nose
Yes its awful! It easily causes secondary infections to breed!
It does!  Especially in the throat, sinuses and larynx!
Dont forget the lungs! Pnemonia is so hard to overcome, I'm only 24 and have been hospitalized 4 times for Pnemonia stemming from a cold!
I'm sorry to hear that!  There are many risk factors, including  daycare, not sleeping well, and psychological stress. Best to avoid those things!
