Common Cold is quite a nagging problem
where in a lighter manner it is said that if you take medicine it
will take a week to be normal and if you don¡¯t take any medicine
it will take 7 days to be alright !! Frequent cold which includes
allergic cold, viral cold, etc. is a major cause of human discomfort
and loss of human hours in the world. Colds being the most common
of the ailments that the humanity suffers from, it is called common
cold!
Though Usually it is never dangerous
but common colds cause physical discomfort with annoying symptoms
such as running of the nose, blocked nose, throat irritation, fever,
congestive headache, etc. with a tendency to develop chest congestion
in those who are prone to it. Exposure to cold temperate, cold drinks-food,
etc are known to precipitate the cold by lowering the temperature
of the respiratory passage, encouraging the virus and bacteria to
grow. Viruses of different strains are the major cause. Allergic
cold may be due to pollen, dust, hay, etc. It is the body tendency
and sensitivity that makes one prone to frequent colds of any nature.
In that sense, common cold is not a local disease of the nose but
that of the whole system, the immunological system.

disease that requiring wholesome treatment with an in-depth case
study. Homoeopathic treatment is extremely effective to treat frequent
attacks of colds in all age groups. Homoeopathy is very strongly
