It’s easy to see how primary care providers put the “primary” in care. From being the first point of contact to treating common illnesses to directing preventive health strategies, the physicians who are at the frontlines of your health frequently provide much of the medical care needed by you and your family.

In this month’s installment of Prisma Health On Call, we’re connecting readers to Prisma Health primary care providers who are here, on call, ready to answer your healthcare questions. From the most detailed to the most broad questions, this is your chance to tap into the expertise of the providers who answer these questions everyday.

❓ What can I do to heal from a cold faster?
