Well, if you have a very bad cold you should of already contacted the doctor and got it doagnosed. You might have gotten some antibiotics.

I would recommend an oral decongestant pseudoephedrine(sudafed) in combination with a painkiller (ie tylenol). If you are going to choose a product, look for Tylenol Sinus or Advil Sinus and take one tablet every 4-6 hours. (Check the ingredients, one should be pseudoephedrine and the other should be either acetaminophen or ibuprofen)

Be careful with sinus products, it is a stimulant and can increase blood pressure.

Stay extra warm, take vitamin C & drink hot tea.
