How can I get rid of this cold?!


Question:

How can I get rid of this cold?

I really don't want to be sick during the March break so I would like to see what I can do. Im resting, taking vitamin C's and drinking lots of fluids but is there something to speed it up more?


Answers:

I heard that having sex actually helps...lol.

saltwater drops in the nostrils to relieve nasal congestion (you can buy these - also called saline nose drops - at any pharmacy)

a cool-mist humidifier to increase air moisture

petroleum jelly on the skin under the nose to soothe rawness

hard candy or cough drops to relieve sore throat

a warm bath or heating pad to soothe aches and pains
steam from a hot shower
