Nothing can cure cold, our body takes time to heal. Meanwhile one can follow some remedies which might ease the symptoms such as stay hydrated and sip warm liquids, rest, sooth the sore throat with warm water + salt gargles, steam inhalation to combat nasal stuffiness, use humidifier at home, rest and honey in children.

View allI got a small cut on my left hand from the corner of my belt's buckle, which is made of steel. It was bleeding a little bit and the cut isnt very deep. The last time I had a tetanus shot was in August 2019, then before that in February 2019, and before that one in August 2018. I havent had any cuts needing a tetanus shot since then. Do I need to get another tetanus shot for this cut? How long do these shots usually protect you? Is getting one tetanus shot a year enough?

I've had a really bad runny nose for the past six days, and I'm feeling pretty miserable. I heard that taking azithromycin tablets might help with a cold. Do you think it's a good idea for me to try them, or should I consider something else? Is it normal for a cold to last this long?
Take tablet levorid twice a day post meals 1-0-1 for 3 days
