Does it take a long time to recover from a cold if a person is infect with HIV/aids?


Is getting a cold deadly for a HIV infected person?

An HIV infected person is more susceptible to infection because of the meds that they are on and because of an altered immune system due to the disease. Any infection that an uninfected person would normally overcome such as the flu or even a common cold, can become deadly for a PLWA (person living with AIDS). Therefore, they need to prevent an infection from occurring whenever possible. Also, they need to see a doctor when an infection does occur, so that their meds can be regulated to fight the infection.

yes.bcos the person have immunodefficiency where his immune system is supressed bcos lack of Tcell

Yes in some cases you might never get better from the flu

yes
in aids all infections are longer n more severe

I would venture an uneducated guess, that for a person with a suppressed immune system, a cold virus could be very devastating and possible lead to serious complications such as pneumonia. Only a physician can answer this question with certainty.

i have been HIV+ for 13 years and no if your t-4 count is good or normal then the time it takes to recover would be the same as the time it would take for a person that don't have HIV
