Overview
Symptoms of acute viral nasopharyngitis include runny nose, cough, and sore throat.
History and symptoms
The Incubation period is usually around 16 hours and symptoms peak between the second and fourth day.[1]
- Common cold starts with sore throat. It usually resolves within 1-2 days.[2]
- Sore throat may be accompanied with fatigue and headache.
- Fever is not usually present. Fever usually points more toward influenza not acute viral nasopharyngitis.[3]
- After that nasal congestion, discharge and runny nose ensue.
- Nasal discharge may cause nasal obstruction which interfere with sleeping and eating.[4]
Post viral cough
- Cough usually starts around the fourth to fifth day with the improvement of nasal symptoms.[5]
- Cough is usually milder than this of influenza.
Resolution of symptoms
- Symptoms usually resolve within 7-10 days.[6]
- Cough may persist for a few weeks after the resolution of symptoms.
