The common cold is a viral infection of your nose and throat (upper respiratory tract). It's usually harmless, although it might not feel that way. Many types of viruses can cause a common cold. Children younger than six are at greatest risk of colds, but healthy adults can also expect to have two or three colds annually. Most people recover from a common cold in a week or 10 days. Symptoms might last longer in people who smoke. If symptoms don't improve, see your doctor.
And the evidence is not very powerful that you can. A cold is caused by an infection with a virus and then the symptoms that we all experience are really produced by the body's response to the viral infection. And it turns out that the body's response is very important in helping you get over the cold within five to seven days.
