I'm going to a swim meet at 5 p.m. tonight, and I'm sick with a cold. I have to do 2 events. The 200 I.M. and the 100 Breaststroke. I'm not so sure about going tonight because I know I might strggle to breath in the water. So I wanted to just do the 100 Breaststroke to improve my time. But why go all the way to a swim meet that's 40 mins. away? Also my aunt and older cousin is going. Plus, my cousin has alot of colage homework to do. And we all wanted to go to dinner afterward, sooooo what do I do, go to the meet, do both events, just do breaststroke, just do the I.M. or not go at all?

Getting water in your ears while having a cold could cause an ear infection. I don't know if you wear earplugs, but they would be a must in this case.
If you're feeling up to it, then go. If you're feeling shitty after the breaststroke, then nix the 200 I.M.
Just go with what your body is telling you.

No i don't think of you will possibly desire to. i'm a swimming instructor and have had maximum of days off artwork simply by fact the colds that are going around. Colds are viruses and it is generally exceeded around. sure the chemical aspects end alot of Viruses. yet what if the newborn coughes on your face or wipes a runny nostril. the instructor has to deal with the newborn. in the event that they have a chilly or are ill the lesson heavily isn't as efficient. only save them abode till they're extra sensible. your infants will benifit maximum of all.

Would you like someone else with a cold to spread their germs in the water? Stay home, get well.

Well your health is more important, and if you have a cold, you definitely should not get into cold water.
