The common cold

There is only one disease called common: the common cold. We call it the common cold because every year millions of people catch it.
Everybody knows the symptoms: a runny nose, a slight fever, coughing and sneezing. It is very unpleasant, but nobody knows a cure.
Medicines called cold ‘ cures’ don’t cure a cold, but they do relieve the symptoms. Whatever you do, your cold will last for a few days and then disappear.
How can you help prevent a cold? Eat well, exercise and you will be fit and healthy.
