Upper respiratory infections are contagious infections that affect the throat, nose, lungs, and sinuses caused by viruses and bacteria. They are one of the most common reasons for missed days at work, school, and college. While upper respiratory infections can occur at any time, they tend to be more common during fall and winter.
If a runny nose, throat ache, or sinus infection makes you feel unwell, please call our experienced providers near you for diagnosis and treatment.
Although viruses are the most common causes of upper respiratory infections, they can also be caused by bacteria. Upper respiratory infections affect the organs located in the upper airway.
They are usually contagious and can be passed on through droplets spread by sneezing or coughing. Common symptoms of upper respiratory infection near you include:
Most upper respiratory infections disappear in about one week or ten days. But if symptoms are acute or persist beyond a week, please contact NeuMed Modern Urgent Care for an appointment.
Our experienced providers in Houston, TX, will take down your medical history, examine your symptoms, and perform a physical exam before recommending treatment.
We may prescribe antibiotics if the infection is bacterial. We may prescribe painkillers, antihistamines, decongestants, or recommend the consumption of warm fluids for viral infections.
Our highly skilled team will determine the right dosage and frequency of medication for your needs. If an upper respiratory infection is causing you to feel sick, please call NeuMed Modern Urgent Care for assistance.
