Answers:
Bad news nothing has any appreciable effect on the progress or resolution of a cold!. management is confined to attempts to give symptom relief only!.

Paracetamol and fluids are the best advise, you could try counting to 259,200, the number of seconds in 3 days, it will probably be gone by the time you finish counting!.

Of course oranges, lemons, honey, garlic, soup, zinc, multivitamins, high dose vitamin C, soup, alcohol and echinacea are well proven to have no useful effects!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You can't is the simple answer!. There are no cures for virus's, you just have to ride it out I'm afraid!.

Get plenty of rest, push fluid intake and take paracetamol for pain relief!. If it was me, I'd be inclined to cancel the appointment and re-book when you are better!. Last thing you want to do is spread the cold around!. The decongestant shouldn't really interfere with the local anaesthetic your given!. Always best to check however!.


The cold virus shouldn't last more than 7-10 days!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Just remember that if you are getting a root canal then you will be wearing a rubber dam that covers your mouth completely!. If you don't think that you will be able to breath through your nose then call your dentist to reschedule!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

u can try to sleep all day with plenty of fluids and vitamin c-remember to eat well!. wont cure the virus but will help u to feel better!. take paracemtamol to help with a temp tooWww@Answer-Health@Com
