Ive had a cold for 5 days now
and Im going on a trip today

My throat sorta hurts

I have a stuffy nose
i lost my voice
but I dont hav a fever

is this just a cold?
do u think I could still go on my trip?

Answers:

My doctor told me that a cold will last up to 10,regardless of what you do or take. So go on the trip.



It sounds like just cold, but it'd be best if you consult your doctor.

I've heard on Discovery channel that common cold last on an average 7 days.
So if that's true & if you are suffering from common cold, you should be fine & kicking in 2 more days I guess!

Discovery Channel & some general knowledge!
