I had a runny nose and like a head cold pretty much, and I just felt off!. I feel a tad better today, except I keep coughing more!. Also I am getting chills!. Will I be OK for school tomorrow!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
A lot depends on the immunity of the person that got the cold!. For example, the last time I got a cold was like last September and it was because EVERYONE in my classroom was sick with it at the time and I caught it from them!. However, my immune system is quite good and I was feeling pretty good only 2 days later whereas everyone else was sick or over 5 days!.
Same virus, but the virus attacked me far less because my body was able to fight it better!.
Normally a common cold lasts 5-7 days!. If it lasts over 10 days and the runny nose is mostly gone but you feel that your throat is still painful, go to a doctor then and see if you got a bacterial infection which needs treatment!. It doesn't happen that lot (though it hapened to me twice) but it's a real pain in the rear to treat because the bacteria becomes resistant to antibiotics pretty easily!. In the probable case your cold will just be an ordinary cold caused by a virus, you should be okay in another 4 days!.
Just drink a lot of liquids, rest a lot and avoid touching people!. Your hands are now highly contagious so the stuff you touch (tv remote, pens, glasses, etc!.!.!.) become infected too and other people shouldn't touch them unless they want to get infected too!.
If you feel very lousy, just skip school for 1 day!. It isn't a crime!. Your classmates will thank you for not getting sick themselves!. I'm a university student and even I do that the very few occasions I've been sick enough to need to skip school!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

this is not true
it really depends on what virus you get, there is no cure for the common cold because there are so many different variations of the bacteria that gives us the symptoms
i think i would stay home from school
if your feeling really crappy chances are your not going to be at optimum capacity anyway
hope you feel better fast :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
