OMAHA, NEB. (RFD NEWS) — As seasonal conditions change, many Americans are experiencing spring allergies and respiratory illness. Understanding the causes of these symptoms is important for managing health during the transition from winter to warmer weather.
Dr. Jeffrey Gold, president of the University of Nebraska, joined us for this week’s Rural Health Matters to discuss what might be behind lingering coughs, runny noses, and other respiratory issues. He explained how to distinguish among colds, the flu, and springtime allergies, particularly as the weather shifts rapidly.
Dr. Gold also offered guidance on when to consult a healthcare professional and what steps they can take to help patients recover, whether dealing with allergies or another illness. He emphasized the importance of staying attentive to symptoms and seeking care when necessary to maintain overall health during seasonal changes.
