If you are having the cough and flu how long it takes to have that kind of illness? What do you usually do when you have cough and colds? Are you drinking some medicine or you just do a manual reliever like drinking water and juices? If that is the case then how long it takes before it relieves your cough and colds?

My cough and flu would last a week if not tended early. First signs of cough and flu I would usually take a vitamin C tablet, do water therapy then rest whenever I can. I also drink calamansi (kind of lime) juice from time to time. I tend to not depend on medicines too much, only when it takes too long to heal.

I don't usually have both cough and colds at he same time- and they last about a week or two. Yeah, I drink lots of water and some herbals too(atis leaves), and medicine(neozep).
