What should I do if I catch a wind-heat cold?

Patient's question:

I have been coughing frequently recently, sometimes accompanied by a headache, severe nasal congestion, frequent runny nose, and a very uncomfortable throat. Occasionally, I also have a fever and feel particularly unwell.

Doctor's answer:

This situation should have the symptoms brought on by wind-heat cold. Don't hurry. As long as you avoid touching deceased poultry or flu patients, it is generally not a problem. It is recommended to take oral antiviral and heat-clearing, detoxifying medications, and add some anti-inflammatory treatments. Additionally, pay attention to drinking plenty of water, getting adequate rest, and maintaining a light diet. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, and rest more during the day.
