Question on "The Cold"?

Question

Whenever I have a cold it always moves into my chest and the same thing happens during allergy season. Why does this happen? And is there any way to prevent it? The whole loosing voice thing happens, then cough..etc.

Answer 1

gravity takes everything downward..you need to treat the first symptoms as soon as you get them. spit out any mucus instead of swallowing it.
the best prevention is healthy eating, exercise and enough rest. also avoid close contact with someone who shows signs of illness. and wash your hands often
