Hi!
If your symptoms are acute then try doing the following
1. Identify triggers (things you're allergic to)
2. Steam inhalation
3. Try OTC anti allergic medication (eg.lorafast or fexofenadine) once or at maximum twice a day usually at night
4. Avoid cold temperatures
5. Wear a mask
Next Steps
Get a consult if :
1. If you have a cold with/or fever and/or productive or dry cough for more than 5-7 days then you should get a consult.
2. If this has happened before or if it happens every year at the same time
3. if the symptoms are getting worse
Health Tips
DONT TRY TO TAKE MORE THAN ONE MEDICATION FOR COLD
