As soon as symptoms become worse than a cold, you should contact your doctor.
Infection numbers are going up and up. What if I catch the virus now? A medical professional explains which remedies relieve the symptoms and what else to look out for.
Even though the course of the disease is more often mild in Omicron, this does not mean that it runs without symptoms. However, one should remain calm and not panic.
The rule of thumb is: If the infection feels like a mild cold, you can safely cure it yourself. For anything above that, you should consult your family doctor.
In case of a feeling of low spirits, fever, severe cough and shortness of breath or an increased respiratory rate, a medical professional should be contacted in any case.
These remedies help with mild corona symptoms.
Agents such as ibuprofen or paracetamol help against fever and pain, and nasal sprays help against a stuffy nose. If you have a scratchy throat, you can use lozenges.
After getting through the infection, however, you should not immediately put yourself under full strain. A light workout is recommended.
