Treatment of acute respiratory infections

ARVI (acute respiratory viral infections) are the contagious viral diseases, which can be easily contracted in places of public gathering – public transport, offices, shops, etc. The cold affects a man, when his organism is weakened for some reasons. For example, people often fall ill with the cold during the period of sudden changes in temperature in spring and autumn as well as during the period of winter frosts.

Sometimes, the complications, such as otitis (inflammation of the ear) or maxillary sinusitis (inflammation of nasal sinuses) may appear. Some complications may distort the voice of a man – it can become hoarse.

The symptoms of ARVI can be similar to the symptoms of other diseases, such as bronchitis and influenza; that is why you should better consult the qualified specialists for treating ARVI.

The antipyretic, antiviral preparations, drops and sprays are used for treatment of ARVI, which alleviate the runny nose. In some cases, the doctors can recommend anti-inflammatory or antiviral preparations. With the cough, the doctors prescribe expectorants or inhalation courses. 

ARVI are very contagious; that is why it is recommended maximally limiting the contact with the ill person and necessarily wearing gauze facial masks for the patient and those, who have contact with him. Also, it is always important to observe the rules of personal hygiene, use individual dishes, utensils and, if necessary, avoid contact with ill persons.
