Home remedies to treat a cold

At one point, almost everyone is cold. The common cold is caused by a virus, which means that an antibiotic is not an effective treatment.

Colds are so common that according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), adults can expect to have about two colds a year. Although a cold is generally not dangerous, it can leave a person uncomfortable.

There is currently no cure for colds, but there are several home remedies that can reduce the symptoms. Symptoms of a cold include a sore throat, stuffy nose, cough, and aches and pains.

Fortunately, most home remedies have no side effects, so even if they only offer limited help, they won't do any harm.

1. Gargling.
2. Steam.
3. Honey preparations
4. Sip liquids
5. Use of a humidifier

Home remedies won't necessarily speed up a person's recovery, but they can help someone feel better until the virus has run its course. The CDC says that most people tend to experience cold symptoms for 7-10 days. Some symptoms, such as a cough, may last a little longer.

Complications of a chilly can include an ear or sinus infection. If symptoms persist for more than 2 weeks or become severe, it may be a good idea for the person to consult a doctor.
