I have a cold, headache, and fever. What can I do to feel better?
Make sure to rest as much as possible and drink plenty of fluids, such as water, herbal teas, or soups, to stay hydrated. You may take over-the-counter paracetamol to reduce your fever and relieve your headache, and an antihistamine like cetirizine or a decongestant like phenylephrine to help with cold symptoms. Eat light, nutritious meals, avoid strenuous physical activity, and see a doctor if your symptoms persist for more than three days, worsen, or become severe.
