Difference between Common cold and Inflammation

Common cold vs. Inflammation

The common cold, also known simply as a cold, is a viral infectious disease of the upper respiratory tract that primarily affects the nose. Inflammation (from inflammatio) is part of the complex biological response of body tissues to harmful stimuli, such as pathogens, damaged cells, or irritants, and is a protective response involving immune cells, blood vessels, and molecular mediators.

Similarities between Common cold and Inflammation

Common cold and Inflammation have 13 things in common (in Unionpedia): Allergic rhinitis, Anorexia (symptom), Epithelium, Fever, ICAM-1, Infection, Inflammation, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, Pharyngitis, Pneumonia, Rhinitis, Sinusitis.

Allergic rhinitis

Allergic rhinitis, also known as hay fever, is a type of inflammation in the nose which occurs when the immune system overreacts to allergens in the air.

Infection

Infection is the invasion of an organism's body tissues by disease-causing agents, their multiplication, and the reaction of host tissues to the infectious agents and the toxins they produce.

Inflammation

National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases

The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) is one of the 27 institutes and centers that make up the National Institutes of Health (NIH), an agency of the United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are a drug class that reduce pain, decrease fever, prevent blood clots and, in higher doses, decrease inflammation.
