Cold is not a disease. It is a natural process of bronchial system to weed out the dirt collected in the bronchioles. Let's not try to take medicines for such ordinary cold unless it is allergic or due to any other cause. Take liquid diet during night time. Rest is necessary. Rub eucalyptus oil to chest and back. Warm water with honey will do. Even without any medicine you get cured within five or six days.
boil slices of fresh ginger root in water, add lemon juice, honey, and a dash of cayenne. Won't cure a cold, but will help with symptoms.
