One of the most common reasons of fever and cold attacks is the influenza virus. Such bouts are not really harmful and usually pass away within a few days. Steam inhalation, a healthy diet with lots of juices and basic medicines such as allegra and sinarest or crocin, can help provide symptomatic relief. However, if the fever continues beyond 4-5 days, then it becomes essential to consult a general physician to check for upper tract infections or other diseases and provide relevant antibiotics.
