Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have had a cold for over two weeks. I have not taken any meds other than baby aspirin and my cholesterol and BP meds as well as my allergy meds for cedar fever (Fluticasone Nasal Spray).
