Question
What medication should I take for a cold, cough, and runny nose without fever?
Answer
A cold, cough, and runny nose without fever might be caused by catching a chill or a viral infection. Most viral infections are accompanied by a fever. For your condition, you can start with over-the-counter cold medication. Also, drink plenty of water, eat fresh vegetables and fruits, and you can make some honey pear syrup for its lung-nourishing and blood-cooling effects. If you have yellow phlegm, you will need to take symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication.
