Host: What is the difference between child colds and adult colds?
Ronald Turner: There is not really too much difference between colds in children and colds in adults. Children may have a little bit of fever occasionally associated with common cold symptoms. In adults, we generally recognize no fever as part of the usual common cold syndrome. So, that is may be a minor difference but in general they are the same.
