Coryza

Coryza is a respiratory infection that affects the upper respiratory tract, which includes the nose, sinuses, and throat. It is caused by a virus, typically the rhinovirus, which is the same virus that causes the common cold. Symptoms of coryza include a runny or stuffy nose, sneezing, a sore throat, headache, and sometimes a mild fever. These symptoms usually last for a week or two, but can last up to four weeks in some cases. Treatment for coryza is typically rest and fluids, and over-the-counter medications to reduce fever and relieve discomfort.

The word “cold” is a catch-all term that describes symptoms such as sneezing, wet nose, running nose, scratchy throat, heaviness in head, body ache, headache, indigestion, nausea, stomach ache, vomiting, diarrhoea and fever. Frequent attacks of cold are a reflection of a temporary dip in immunity that is most often caused by insufficient rest; too many rich foods, stress and exposure to cold and dampness can also precipitate its occurrence. Frequent colds can make the individual vulnerable to secondary lower respiratory tract infections.
