How to kick a cold ??

Question

I’m fighting a cold and not sure what all I can take for my sore throat :/ It’s not fun not being able to sleep because of my throat hurting and stuffed up nose and coughing:/ anyone have any suggestions for how to handle this?? My doctor just said to breath in steam and drink lots of water and take Tylenol when I have a fever.

Answer

There’s not a whole lot you can do. I kept a humidifier going constantly and then put eucalyptus and lavender in my diffuser. Also sleeping with my head elevated helped with the stuffiness some. Keep pushing fluids and get plenty of rest!

Answer

You can take Affrin! I swear by that stuff! You can only take it for a few days, so be sure to read the bottle. But it will clear you right up!

Answer

If you do not have high blood pressure concerns you can take Sudafed or Claritin D
Otherwise you can do a nasal rinse/neti pot as many times as you can stand. I do it 2x in the morning 2x when I get home from work and 2x before bed
Steam shower
Gargle salt water
Cough drop
Humidifier
Tylenol for any swelling
Benadryl at bed time

Answer

I had an appointment on Thursday and asked my midwife, she said mucinex, Tylenol for pain if you need it, and any cough/throat drops.

Answer

Chamomile tea with lots of honey has helped me a lot.
