Question
Hello. I caught a cold after going ice skating yesterday. Now I have a runny nose, along with coughing and wheezing. Hi doctor, I have a cold with coughing and phlegm. Are there any medications that can quickly cure my cold?
Answer
Hello, if you typically experience symptoms like coughing, a sore throat, or itchy throat after catching a cold, you can take medications that clear heat and cool the blood, as well as antiviral cold medications for treatment, such as Sanjiu Cold Remedy and Kyoto Nienchi Honey-coated Suanbei Loquat Paste. If your symptoms do not improve, it is recommended that you visit the hospital’s respiratory and internal medicine department for a professional diagnosis. In your daily life, be mindful of preventing colds by staying hydrated, eating more fruits and vegetables. Avoid consuming excessive spicy foods, and ensure an adequate intake of protein, vitamins, vegetables, and water. A moderate intake of vitamins can be beneficial for accelerating recovery. Also, drink plenty of water and try to avoid eating cold foods like watermelons and pears to prevent digestive disorders.
