Does ice cream cause or aggravate a cold/cough

No it is not you. Its is even me. Its with everything. WEll if you have cold and you have something cold , but so obvious you will get a sore throat in the morning. Well if you want to avoid this , then before you sleep in the night, rinse your mouth with warn water. That really helps. WEll i have this problem since i was a kid and i know about this very well and i know that how to even prevent this and all the cures also. Have been to many doctoers:P. Well anyways try it and let me know . happy mylotting :)

It's due to the milk and sugar in the icecream. It aggravates colds and allergies. Quite a bummer.

You have already answered your own question. That is, Ice Cream will make your cold/sore throat worsened. When we have coughs or colds, doctors usually tell us to avoid sweet things such as ice cream, cold drinks, since it will only aggravate the problem. It's another thing when you have a headache and ice in a bag is put in your head or a cold rub is given to you. I guess when you take something cold like ice cream, softdrinks, it will surely make things worst. :)

That is because dairy products worsen the effects. My doctors have always said not to drink or eat anything with milk it will cause the mucas to thicken.
