A member asked:

After moving to another country seems like i have a cold every day, running nose all day and if i drink water somehow it becomes worse.what can it be?

New viruses: You have been exposed and become immune to the cold viruses in the area from which you came. You now are in a new place with a new variety of cold viruses and are getting them one by one. Until you have been in most new places for a while, you will get a sequence of colds from the new exposures.

3 yo was drinking water and spitting some out as a water play, he coughed & some water went up his nose. He coughed once and is not coughing anymore but he was already having a cold so his nose seems blocked. Is it a risk for dry /secondary drowning?
