As most of us are self-proclaimed doctors when it comes to treating the common cold, it wouldn’t be wise to go ahead and treat ourselves with the rapidly rising cases of the new sub-variant of Covid-19.

Dr Manjusha Agarwal, senior consultant, internal medicine, Global Hospitals, Parel, Mumbai says, “When it comes to distinguishing between a common cold, flu, and the new Covid-19 variant, paying attention to specific symptoms is crucial. While colds typically present with a runny or stuffy nose and mild fatigue, flu often brings on more severe symptoms such as body aches, high fever, and extreme fatigue. However, the distinguishing factor with the new Covid variant JN. 1 lies in its unique combination of symptoms. Alongside common cold and flu symptoms, Covid-19 may also manifest through fever, runny nose, sore throat, headaches, loss of appetite, nausea, fatigue, and, in rare cases, gastrointestinal issues. Establishing clear differentiators between a typical cold or flu and the potential presence of the Covid-19 variant can be done by prompt testing and appropriate medical guidance for one`s health concerns.”
