Search for COUGHS, COLDS, AND SINUS INFECTIONS You waken at three in the morning to the sound of your coughing eight-year- old child. You stumble down the hallway to his room to check on him and you hear his chest rattling. He is unable to breath through his stuffy nose and he feels like he has a fever. Another coughing fit hits him and he vomits some green mucus. What should you do? His fever worries you. Should you call your doctor or take him to the ER? Your one-year-old has had a green runny nose and a cough for two weeks, but he seems happy and playful, has no fever, and has been sleeping relatively well. Should you take him to the doctor? Could this be an ear infection or sinus infection? Your three-year-old has had a fever for the past three days, along with a runny nose and cough. It's Sunday, and your doctor isn't available. Should you take him to the ER, or perhaps the clinic down the street? Here is a guide to helping you understand coughs and colds. Does green nose mean a sinus infection? Is a fever cause for worry? How do you tell if your child has bronchitis? Should you take him in to the doctor, or wait a few days? These and many other questions will be answered as we discuss how to get your child through the common cold, how to treat his symptoms, and how to decide when to see the doctor.

Women, Men, Lifestyle Who We Are About WebMD Site Map 12 Tips to Prevent Cold and Flu the "Natural" Way WebMD Medical Reference The Flu The Common Cold Your Sick Child Main Guide Since there are no known cures for colds and flu, prevention must be your goal. A proactive approach to warding off colds and flu is apt to make your whole life healthier. The most effective way to prevent flu, frankly, is to get the flu shot. It may not be natural, but it works better than anything else. But there are other strategies you can employ as well. WebMD went to Charles B. Inlander, president of The People's Medical Society, for suggestions you may want to try: #1 Wash Your Hands Most cold and flu viruses are spread by direct contact. Someone who has the flu sneezes onto their hand, and then touches the telephone, the keyboard, a kitchen glass. The germs can live for hours in some cases weeks only to be picked up by the next person who touches the same object. So wash your hands often. If no sink is available, rub your hands together very hard for a minute or so. That also helps break up most of the cold germs. #2 Don't Cover Your Sneezes and Coughs With Your Hands Because germs and viruses cling to your bare hands, muffling coughs and sneezes with your hands results in passing along your germs to others. When you feel a sneeze or cough coming, use a tissue, then throw it away immediately. If you don't have a tissue, turn your head away from people near you and cough into the air.

You can take one of a variety of medications that may help relieve your symptoms. Or you can take the natural approach. WebMD went to Charles B. Inlander, president of The People's Medical Society, for some home remedies that may speed your recovery, and help you feel better along the way. #1 Know When Not To Treat Symptoms Believe it or not, those annoying symptoms you're experiencing are part of the natural healing process evidence that the immune system is battling illness. For instance, a fever is your body's way of trying to kill viruses in a hotter-than-normal environment. Also, a fever's hot environment makes germ-killing proteins in your blood circulate more quickly and effectively. Thus, if you endure a moderate fever for a day or two, you may actually get well faster. Coughing is another productive symptom; it clears your breathing passages of thick mucus that can carry germs to your lungs and the rest of your body. Even that stuffy nose is best treated mildly or not at all. A decongestant, like Sudafed, restricts flow to the blood vessels in your nose and throat. But often you

A DIRECTORY OF WONDERFUL THINGS suggest a site home archives store ... xeni Tuesday, May 4, 2004 How colds work Someone has given me a vicious cold. My third this year. I thought that quitting smoking meant fewer colds, not more. Bugger. Anyway, here's how colds work: The nose contains shelf-like structures called turbinates, which help trap particles entering the nasal passages. Material deposited in the nose is transported by ciliary action to the back of the throat in 10-15 minutes. Cold viruses are believed to be carried to the back of the throat where they are deposited in the area of the adenoid. The adenoid is a lymph gland structure that contains cells to which cold viruses attach. Link via Plastic Bag posted by Cory Doctorow at 01:51:37 AM permanent link to this entry New!

@import "../styles/advanced.css"; Skip navigation Back issue listing Subject Index Journal listing by subject Echinacea treatments for colds Study Results Comment One of the problems with complementary therapies is the absence of high quality trials. Systematic reviews that include poor quality trials have a propensity to mislead, because poor trials are often more positive in their outcomes. The best and most recent systematic review for echinacea treatment [1] had nine trials (1,264 subjects) assessing cold treatment with echinacea with a number of different products. The studies assessed patients over different duration (8 days to resolution of symptoms). Six trials showed modest, but significant improvement in symptoms over placebo (or vitamin C). Despite this the beneficial effects of echinacea for the early treatment of colds were modest and there was no convincing evidence of its effectiveness in the prevention of colds. The trials were generally of medium to poor quality, though they were mostly of reasonable size (over 100 patients per group). With this background, we should examine any new high quality trial to see whether it enhances or deflates the modest claims of efficacy. One such study [2] is highly deflating.
