Five to six days after initiation of treatment, cephalexin and placebo groups did not differ in the presence of nasal discharge, incidence of complications, or parental opinion of benefit of medicationY Cough occurs in 60-80% of common cold and does not suggest a bacterial etiology. n Even in uncomplicated viral upper respiratory infection, as occurs in common cold, there is inflammation and congestion of both the nasal and the sinus mucosa. Persistence of signs and symptoms of upper respiratory infection i.e. rhinorrhea or cough for more than 10-14 days is a pointer towards sinusitis.	./cache/cord-256827-tht5h1tu.txt	./txt/cord-256827-tht5h1tu.txt
