How Can Cold Along With Severe Fatigue Be Treated?

I had a cold 3 weeks ago for a few days, it went away and came back a week later just to go away again. Last week i got a full blown cold and though most of the symptoms are pretty much gone I am extremely tired even though i have been sleeping on avg 14 hours a night. I have never had fatigue this long with a cold, what is going on?

Hi,

It is due to viral infection which caused cold and due to that you also had fatigue. It is commonly observed in viral infection that patient feels fatigued. You need to take liquids,juice,soup and rest for few days.

As you regain energy,electrolytes and salt level you will feel better.it will take one or two weeks.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Soheel Hussain Zargar,
