Blocked nose, sneezing, or throat irritation: Understanding the differences in the most common symptoms of general discomfort
At some point in our lives, we’ve all experienced that annoying feeling of a blocked nose, sneezing, or a sore throat. Often, we use terms like “cold”, “flu”, and “common cold” interchangeably to refer to these ailments. However, although they share some symptoms, they are caused by different microbial agents and can have varying degrees of severity. Let’s break each one down to better understand what’s happening when we experience these sensations.
The common cold
Is a mild viral condition of the nose and throat, with rhinoviruses being the most common, but it can also be caused by respiratory syncytial virus, adenoviruses, among others.
The most frequent symptoms are:
- Sneezing
- Nasal secretion and congestion
- Throat irritation and/or mild cough
- Watery eyes
- General malaise (fatigue and tiredness)
- The duration can range from 7 to 10 days.
The flu (influenza)
The flu is highly contagious and is caused by influenza viruses. Unlike the cold, the flu can be serious and lead to complications, especially in vulnerable individuals such as young children, elderly people, pregnant women, and those with chronic diseases.
The most frequent symptoms include:
- High fever
- Muscle and joint discomfort
- Fatigue and weakness
- Dry and persistent cough
- Throat irritation
- Chills
Most flu symptoms improve in a week or two, but fatigue and cough can linger for longer.
What is recommended in these situations?
For both the cold and the flu, measures focus on reducing the spread of viruses:
- Frequent handwashing: With soap and water, or alcohol-based hand sanitizer.
- Avoid touching the face: Especially eyes, nose, and mouth.
- Covering when coughing or sneezing: Use a disposable tissue or the crook of the elbow.
- Avoid close contact with sick individuals.
- Annual flu vaccination: It’s the most effective measure to prevent the flu and its complications.
- Maintaining a healthy lifestyle: A balanced diet, regular exercise, and adequate rest help maintain the immune system.
What can we do to relieve the associated discomfort?
- Rest: It’s crucial for recovery.
- Hydration: Drink plenty of fluids (water, juices, broths).
- Use of ingredients in nasal symptoms and fever: It’s recommended to consult a professional.
- Home remedies: Gargling with warm saltwater, honey as a balm, humidifiers.
