How can I get rid of a cold?!


Question: How can I get rid of a cold.?
My little cousins came over yesterday, and one of them was non-stop coughing the entire time. It was disgusting. We were in my room, and when they left I couldn't stand not disinfecting everything I owned. But this morning I woke up with a kinda stuffy nose and I feel like there's something in my throat. Not phlegm, but something that keeps me clearing my throat. I also have a head ache in the front of my head (right above my eyebrows). It's horrible. I want to get rid of this cold already!!! I'm going to Disney on Friday...I don't want to leave sick. I'm already taking fish oil pills...But anything else I can do to get rid of this annoying cold.? Thanks :)Health Question & Answer


Answers:
Your body heals when you sleep, so get plenty of rest.

Remember to keep taking your vitamins, and take vitamins which contain iron which will get rid of a cold fast.

Drink plenty of water and other fluids, also purchase theraflu from walmart and drink that hot twice a day.

Eat, take it easy though with soups and soft foods.

Don't stop disinfecting everything!Health Question & Answer

Drink lots of water, take garlic (capsules if you have to), and if it's cold where you are, stay bundled up, get plenty of rest.
Tea could help.

echinacea and/or cold fx work WONDERS!! vitamin C seems to help although there is no clinical data suporting that... Zinc lozenges speed it up too but they often taste like sh*tHealth Question & Answer

There is no cure as of yet for the common cold. There are only medicines to make it not feel so bad.Anyone will tell you that. It is kind of too late to start taking vitamin C. I've been taking 1000mg of vitamin c a day for about 7 months now, and I havent been sick for over a year. I was even around people who were sick atleast 3 or 4 times. Buy cough drops, but if you eat too many, you will feel worse. Trust me, Ive done it before. Cough drops cause you to develop phelgm because it coats your throat. If you develop to much of though, you will cough non-stop. Take dayquil, and nyquil at night, it knocks me right out. Start taking vitamin c everyday or everyother day and you will rarely get sick. Do not smoke or anything though cuz that negates the purpose. Oh and get chloroseptic for your throat, it is like gold when your throat hurts and you cant breath. i feel for you. I HATE HATE being sick. I'd rather go to work than be sick!Health Question & Answer
