Long-lasting cold: If it doesn't go away - five tips. If cold symptoms last longer than four weeks, you should not ignore them and strengthen your immune system.

Lack of sleep, stress, unhealthy diet, obesity, smoking and alcohol consumption, among other things, can weaken the body's immune system and lead to a cold. If a cold has broken out, fever-reducing medications and painkillers from the pharmacy can at least provide relief. Avoid smoking, alcohol consumption and stress and ensure periods of rest.
