Head cold got you down?

Strange thing happening this summer…a lot of chest and head colds with thick mucus. Ugh! Often, I hear patients come in after the fact and say,”I need to get tuned up because I have been so sick lately.  I just thought I would wait until it has gone away and it took 3 weeks.”  Doesn’t […]
