Răcim de la frig sau de la virus? Explicația medicului ORL și greșeala pe care o facem cel mai des

Dr. Bogdan Popescu explains how to differentiate between a common cold and more serious viral infections. Seasonal changes can lead to symptoms like nasal congestion and sore throat, often self-limiting. However, high fever, pus, or blood in nasal discharge indicate complications requiring medical attention. Misuse of antibiotics for viral infections is common and should be avoided. Additionally, going to public places while symptomatic can spread illness. Preventive measures include avoiding contact with sick individuals, maintaining good nasal hygiene, and leading a healthy lifestyle to support immunity.
