I have had uri for like a week and a half. how do i gat rid of it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
URI: A URI usually caused by a virus lasts for 1 to weeks. You may be at the tail end of your cold. If you are not better in a week, perhaps another virus strain has started another cold. If you do not feel well, it is better to consult your doctor.
