Good quality drinking water like Pi Mag by Nikken (water is transformed through a specialised filtration system which uses magnets and replenishes filtered water with minerals)
Use of a netti pot to clear the nose (like a nasal rinse - it clears the back of the nose) (look netti pot up on google!)
Eucalyptus crystals from the chemist put in hot water and inhaled!.
Lemon and ginger drink with Manuka honey!.
sniff a little (very little) epsom salts, and drink a quarter of a teaspoon in a litre of water, small sips all day long!.
Meditate!.
Practice horse stance!. (join a qigong class to find out how)
Try whatever you feel like from the above list, all are good, but if it persists you could see a Chinese herbalist or a homeopath!.
When your nose is a little bit clearer then you need to get as much oxygen into your lungs to clear up the phlegm - (oxygen dries up the damp) - some sort of exercise outdoors is best!.
good luck!.
when you get better consider doing something to boost your immune system (qigong works) to stop you catching a cold next time you visit the docs!Www@Answer-Health@Com

It doesn't sound like pneumonia or bronchitis!. It sounds more like the common cold!. You don't mention any thick green or brown/ yellow phlegm that you are coughing up!. It could also just be a sinus infection!.
I'm not much on herbal treatments, however, herbal teas seem to soothe things and thin the secretions that you may be coughing up (although sipping hot water would do this as well!.) Zicam (zinc!.!.!.over the counter), helps me when I start to feel a cold coming on!.

Pnuemonia can kill you, most of the time it requires antibiotics!. I won't tell you to go to the doctor because that's not what you want to hear, but if you are that ill, you are making a mistake!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
