Cold that 'feels like Covid' sweeps UK as experts explain how to get rid of 'worst' lurgy
19.12.2022 - 17:57 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Amid the chilly winter weather, masses of people seem to be fighting a cold that rivals the symptoms of Covid-19.
It's natural to see a spike in colds and coughs at this time of year, but thousands of people in Scotland and the rest of the UK are experiencing what they are calling the "worst cold ever" as people mingle once again like they did in pre-pandemic years.
While flu and cold symptoms are intertwined with those of Covid, what's there to do if you're testing negative for the virus but feel quite ill?
The topic came up on social media after TV writer Darren Little posted on Twitter : "Anyone else down with something that feels like Covid but isn't?".
The viral tweet, which has racked up over 30,000 likes, has seen thousands of people stricken with the same ailment respond in agreement.
No doubt the poor weather has also contributed to a rise ill health as last week parts of the country experienced snow, ice and temperatures as low as -17C.
While it can be tough to escape flus and colds in cold conditions, there are ways you can tackle them without having to take a trip to the doctor.
According to Abbas Kanani, pharmacist at Chemist Click online pharmacy, once a cold or flu has begun, you can't actually stop it from taking course. The best thing to do is let it run its course which could last up to 10 days.
Before seeking medical attention, there are a number of over the counter treatments which can be purchased at any pharmacy to fight incessant spluttering.
Abbas explains that there are two main types of coughs – a chesty cough or dry tickly cough.
Using medicines containing active ingredients such as guaifenesin, ipecacuanha, ammonium chloride and squill can help to break up any excess mucus that may have accumulated
