How to quickly cure a minor cold?!


Question: How to quickly cure a minor cold!?
I am in 8th grade and I have a big school trip on friday--(it's wednesday as I write this), and I was just wondering what are some things that work really well for a cold!? I don't have any congestion or anything in my chest, just a really really stuffy/runny nose, and my head feels so stuffed!. I'm a little bit dizzy too!. Does anyone know of any good cold meds and/or natural treatments!? Will eating oranges and drinking oranges actually help at all!? Thanks-Www@Answer-Health@Com
