Currently I'm suffering from common cold because I having the symptoms of sneezing, running nose, sore throat and ache in whole body. Actually, the common cold is a viral infection which spread among the people especially in the winter. This is because, in winter it's chances of spread increase as the amount of moisture in the air increase which eventually increase the risks of having a common cold.
It is caused due to the rhinovirus which is considered as the most common cause of it. When it spread in our body, it makes a lot of things difficult for us. It usually affects our upper respiratory tract especially the throat and the airways. It is not very dangerous as compared to other viral infections because it lasts UpTo 8-10 days. And a taking some home remedies are enough to cure common cold.

Yes, the common cold can be treated at home even without taking medicine as it lasts for a period of six to seven days and then disappear automatically. Anyway, let's have a look at some of the natural treatments to overcome the common cold:
Stay hydrated and keep your throat wet by drinking water and liquids.
Avoid eating spicy foods which contains a lot of peppers and salts.
Try to take the ginger tea 2-3 times a day as ginger has antibiotics properties.
Use honey and lemon tea it will provide soothing affects on your throat.
Do the salt water gargle to reduce the irritation and to open the airways.
