Viral: If you have a simple viral illness, like the common cold, there isn't a magic pill to cure it. Time is the primary treatment, as these illnesses are self-limited and they go away on their own. This is true for the majority of viral illnesses but not all. If it worsens, go see a doctor!

The best....: Treatment will depend on the diagnosis and for that you need to be examined by an md. Call you family physician. I want you to be well by monday too.
