It depends. Sounds like it could be allergies. If that's the case then just take some benedryll. But if it is a cold as I just had one, advil cold and sinus really helped me. You have to go up to a pharmacy and ask for it because it has sudafed in it, but it's worth it and nondrowsy.

If you run into sinus problems a lot you may want to check in neti pot. I like to do things the herbal way. With a cold u would use the neti pot with the salt and ginger root to bring the inflamation inside your nasal cavaties down. Health Question & Answer

Go and get you a nasal medicine that resolves that problem. They sell it at drugstores, and it looks like a tube that you stick halfway into your nose and squirt some liquid stuff into your nose. Really helps me. Scratchy throat.? I know it sounds wierd, but drink some lemon juice. NOT A LOT! just get a VERY little, add salt, and there you go. may sound wierd, but hey it helps me all the time. Or try soup. Watery eyes.? You need more restHealth Question & Answer

Short term.? Take something like Benadryl or Nyquil to get some sleep. Tablets with zinc in them like Coldeeze or sprays like Zicam can really help.

Using a neti pot or a sinus rinse bottle can also move the congestion through your system more quickly.

Colds are pains, but at least they only last for a week...something to be grateful for.
