Kad već savetujemo modernu medicinu - može i mrtvog petla da baci preko krova kad je pun mesec i neka popije čaj od sušenih krila šišmiša.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, when cold viruses infect the respiratory tract, the body makes clear mucus that helps wash away germs from the nose and sinuses. After about three days, the body’s immune cells fight back, changing the discharge to a white or yellow color. “As the bacteria that live in the nose grow back, they may also be found in the mucus, which changes to a greenish color,” the agency says. “This is normal.”
The only time antibiotics are needed for a runny nose, experts say, is when the diagnosis is bacterial sinusitis.
THE BOTTOM LINE The color of nasal discharge should not dictate the medicine.
