I have a cold, help me?!
Question: I have a cold, help me.?
ok so i have been coughing but my throat tickly and kinda sore, my chest hurts, my neck and everytime i blow my nose my ear pops. what should i take for this.? thanksHealth Question & Answer
Answers:
Your ears popping indicates congestion; so take a decongestant. Any kind of cough drop or hard candy will help your throat, as will tea with honey in it, if you feel up to microwaving a cup. If you have a humidifier, it will help with the soreness in your chest. A hot bath would help if no humidifier is available.
Other than that, take some standard cold medicine, drink lots of fluids and get plenty of rest. Good luck! And I hope you feel better soon.

If your symptoms are worsening see your doctor. If you are sure you have just a cold you will feel miserable, stuffy head,runny nose, blocked ears and have a cough which drives you nuts, which may worsen if you lie flat in bed. My advice is lots of clear fluids and fruit juice, 10 minutes of sunlight, fresh fruit and butter menthols for your dry throat, hot tea with honey and lemon drinks are great. Your should be better in 5 to 7 days.
If you have a flu you will have joint pains, chesty and productive cough (green sputum) shortness of breath, aches and pains in most joints, high temperature, lethargy and very unwell. You must keep up your fluids, eat plenty fresh fruit, you may need antibiotics from your doctor to clear your chest before it develops into pneumonia. Try to sit up in bed and keep your temperate down. With medical advice you should be better in 10 to 14 days. If not go back. Some viral infections can last for up to 3 weeks and return if you don't look after yourself.

ok, i know this tea and herbal pill thing that REALLY helps with sickness, honestly it really helps. the pill is called astragalus, it is a plant that boosts your immune system, and if you take it about three times a day it can even make your cold go away before it starts. its not prescription, it's just a plant in a pill that you can buy at a Whole Foods Market the tea is called 'breathe easy tea', and again, it boosts your immune system to fight the cold, and really makes your throat feel good in the meantime. its good with honey. you can get both of these at the whole foods market, and they really really help with getting rid of colds and preventing them when you start to feel sick. i have a cold too and they're really helping me.Health Question & Answer
for the ticklying throat. i know a quick remedy. you get a cup of warm water and add some salt, but not a lot. to the points where you can see it's kinda foggy in the water. then you gargle it like you would do with mouth wash. do this for about 10 sec each gulp until empty. the salt helps kill bacteria in the back of the throat. hope this helpsHealth Question & Answer
