List of human diseases names in English with pictures

A cold is a common illness caused by a virus, usually affecting the nose and throat. Symptoms include a runny or blocked nose, sneezing, sore throat, and sometimes mild fever. Colds spread easily through the air or by touching infected surfaces. While uncomfortable, they usually go away in 5–7 days without needing medicine. Rest, drinking warm fluids, and using steam or salt water can help ease symptoms. Most people get colds multiple times a year, especially during the winter. Though not serious, a cold can make you feel tired and slow until you recover fully.
