How do you take care of your cold and/or flu?!
Question: Some great ways of taking care of that nasty cold I have found are:
1) At the very first sign use Zicam nasal swaps. Sounds gross, but it helps.
2) Get plenty of rest. Doesn't matter if you sleep or not, but resting and not stressing are very important.
3) Drink lots of fluids. I don't mean coffee either!!!! Water, gator aid, power aid or anything with electrolytes will be beneficial fo you.
4) If day to day care doesn't work for you, go see your doctor. Taking medicationis not such a bad thing.
5) Eat clear food such as soup/broth, jello, etc. You need to keep your energy up as much as possible

Zicam and chicken soup. Flu is harder, depends on if it is viral or stomach.
i have a wicked cold right now.
i've stocked up on cherry cough drops, i've been chugging powerade, having campbell's soup, and watching entire seasons of tv shows from the warm, comfort of my bed.
it also helps when you can whine and pout and get your mom to rub your head. i don't care if i'm 21, that's still guaranteed to make me feel good and taken care of...
Oh no, Scooter. I just got one too! I'm taking a lot of fluids to stay hydrated and basically drinking a lot of Vitamin C, which helps. Hope you get better!
