Ask The Doctor: Can I Give Myself The Cold/Flu?

sneeze0106.jpg

The doctor is in! The PIX Morning News' Dr. Steve Salvatore is here to answer your questions:

1. My internist takes a urine test each time I visit her office. Why?
Jerry, West Hempstead, NY

2. Sorry if this is a silly question, but I've always wondered about this even as a child. Can someone catch their own cold/flu again from their own germs? (Drinking out of their own glass, touching their own tissues.)
Cathy, Staten Island

Have a question? E-mail Dr. Steve at askthedoctor@tribune.com.
