Colds and Flu
Most Australian men will get some type of cold or flu (influenza) at some stage in their life. The common cold is very contagious and easily passed on from person to person. Many men usually get at least one cold of flu infection each season, with some men experiencing these respiratory infections even more regularly.
Winter and early spring are the times that the viruses that cause the upper (and lower) respiratory infections are prevalent and doctor's surgeries are filled with patients with the flu (or the common cold).
Below are some of the respiratory conditions that can affect men and treatment options, both conventional and alternative - the best defence against these is to fortify the immune system.
This part of the site looks at every aspect of men's respiratory health.
