I have a cold, can I do anything?

[ObeseWalrus]

Stay in bed and watch cat videos.

In comfy chair, watching youtube.

A big bottle of Nyquil® to wash down some vitamin C every 6 hrs. or so and get a lot of rest/sleep. Works for me every time!!

Maybe Be Sinus Problems,I Know When My Sinuses Were Having problems Nothing Really Relieved That Pain.But Lay In Your Bed For A While And You Should Fall Asleep

[Bsmith]

lay down in bed, try to get some sleep, fixes me up all the time within 2 days from every kind of that's in the air.

 

note:

liquor won't help if u cant sleep, try at your own.

[Trik'Stari]

Chewing vitamin C tabs always helps me, along with spicy foods (for the stuffiness in your nose) and plenty of television and sleep.

[asim1999]

Eat spicy food: opens up ur nose. Have a some hot chocolate with plenty of milk and some cookies. Then grab a blanket and watch some LTT videos

ok, watch out for pain killers, i'm guessing you are taking NSAIDs like aspirin, ibuprofen or naproxen, DON'T mix, and DON'T overtake, you can really damage your liver. The typical med cocktail for annoying colds are an NSAID and/or acetomeniphen (paracetamol), an anti histaminic like dyphenidramine, hydrozyne, chlorphenamine or loratadine, an anti congestant like pseudoephedrine and if you got a really bad cough you can take dextromethorphan (I would stay away from codeine or other opioids) Other than that just rest and let it pass, it's a virus, symptoms can be treated but nothing you can do to make your immune system work faster. Feel better!

Drink brandy then sleep for an hour or so. Sleep is optional.

Rest easy, I only have paracetamol in the house.
