Cold going around with sore throat, stuffy nose?

[Anonymous]

DD got a virus and a week later, now I have it. It starts with a sore throat. Stuffed nose. Then maybe a nasal drip cough. Anyone else have this? We are covid negative. DD was tested at doc office, I did home test. Just ugh.

We had exactly that 2 weeks ago. Tested negative for covid. My asthma kid needed the Nebulizer for 2 days but other that it was short and mild.

Sorry you had it too. DD was sick 4-5 days. On the mend now. I'm hoping I can get through it faster

I had this the other week. Used saline spray and allergy meds with decongestant. Took about a week to feel much better and not so congested.

My 9 yr old had it last week for over a week and now my 6 yr old has it.

What is the point of these posts? Of course colds and vague random viruses are circulating. We live in a giant metropolitan area and it's winter. Lots of people have something, always. It's not noteworthy.

I have events and deadlines lined up, plus I'm curious about it's course, how people managed, etc. If you are bored just swipe.

It has so far skipped the adults in the house but both my kids are getting over colds. It's taking a long time with my son - 1.5 weeks and he's still stuffy. Covid tests all negative. One of my neighbors said it took him two weeks to kick a cold that went through his house a few weeks ago.

About its course??? How people managed? What on earth? It's a cold! They felt crappy for a couple days and then got on with it.

My husband has this too. Tested negative for Covid twice. He’s just upping Vitamin C and drinking hot tea. He is on day 6 now. Not too bad, but there were two days where the cough sounded a bit bad.

Just don’t click on the thread. It’s not that difficult. Shoo.

Wow. I get it, no one got colds for two years, but do you really not know how to handle a cold?

Did you have a PCR test? I had covid and home test was negative, PCR was positive.

What kind of question is this? That sounds like a cold. Colds exist. Of course cold viruses are always “going around.”
