INcrease your Zinc and start drinking as much green tea as you can handle. Add some lemon and you should be right as rain soon.

HAHAHA!!!!!!!!


Seriously though, gargle with some Listerine.....make sure you get the back of your throat, not just your mouth. Trust me it will likely stop the on-set of a cold.

Just go to bed and sleep it off - sleep's the best cure for most minor illnesses.

Get some Airborne ASAP and follow the directions.

Isn't there some pending lawsuits out there re: Zicam in the nose stuff?  Something about people losing their sense of smell and taste.   ???  Probably from overuse or something... ::)

Airborne; just drop the tablet in with some water and you are good to go. The sooner you take it the better.

use warm water and honey and cinnamon I think.  Suppose to make throat feel better.  Or you can do what Sean does for a sore throat just don't stick it in as far

I think it comes in different forms.  This is just regarding the stuff you spray up your nose.

Sinuclense nasal wash can go a long way towards minimize the ordeal.
Wallgreens. Google it up. I had chronic sinus infections/ colds lead to Bronchitus.
Mr Alergy Dr Ended them like theis.  Try it U like it ;).
