lots and lots of mint (natural, not flavored) tea! and alavert allergy pills- the ones that are minty and dissolve.. and maybe the tea that says "Gypsy Cold Remedy" on the box. i forget the brand but it works well for me. . . also honey, that is great for a sore throat. Vitamin C pills will up your immune system.. Eating fresh fruits like mangos, grapefruits, berries, will help too. Dont eat or drink dairy products.. they will increase muccus
fluids! seriously, it will help flush the virus/germs outta the system. lots of rest, take some cold eeeze.
drink some booze too. :P
first plenty of sleep, second for a cough take delsym, it looks discusting in the bottle but it works, conjestion, go out side for a while on a "warmer" day, and for stomach aches and head aches take a nap.
Pour honey in a cup and squeeze some lemons, then mix it real well. This will help sooth the coughing and soar throat I use it all the time.
I would go to the store and buy some Zicam it helps stops and speed up the process of being sick
OJ
I don't get a cold very easily as I live a very healthy life and do a lot to prevent my immune system from weakening, but when I do get a cold, the thing that works every time is to put in a large cup:
- 3 large tbsp of Jamaica rhum
+ the juice of half a lemon
+ a good tbsp of honey (or more if you like it sweeter)
+ fill up with hot water
and I drink this just before I go to bed.
It makes me sweat during the night but the next day I feel a lot better, the day after that, with the same treatment, I am totally fine.
All the best!
The primary symptoms of a cold are post nasal drip and a sore throat, both can be exacerbated by the swelling of tissues. A simple nonsteriodal antiinflammatory such as aspirin works great.
Coughing is a problem that can be limited by treating the coughing with dexamethazone or treat the swelling with an NSAID.
The Rhinovirus is the curse we get for domesticating the horse :)
There is no cure, Vitamin C does nothing but luckly for us colds run their course in only a few days.
Feel better.
i recommend silver fusion. silver in colloidal form is an effective treatment for infections. i use this to treat mine and my 14 year old son's colds sore throats. which we haven't gotten in a while. we take this as a supplement twice a month.
