These conditions are often caused by viruses that spread through air droplets, contaminated surfaces, or close contact with infected individuals. Symptoms such as fever, cough, sore throat, body aches, and fatigue can make everyday activities difficult and uncomfortable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most viral infections are mild and resolve within a few days with proper rest and supportive care.
