Colds are caused by viral infections, and there is a great deal of individual variation in the clinical manifestations of patients. The common cold has a short incubation period and a rapid onset. In the early stage, patients have throat discomfort, sneezing, runny nose and nasal congestion. Systemic symptoms are mild, with chills and low-grade fever. Cough and increased nasal discharge are characteristic symptoms of the common cold. The treatment of colds is mainly symptomatic and there is no specific treatment available. Most viruses are not yet sensitive to antimicrobial drugs, and patients with uncomplicated colds can recover on their own without medication.
