Answer 2

There is no such thing as a cure. A cold is caused by one of several viruses, usually Adenovirus.  The symptoms last usually for a week or two.

All the things mentioned so far are for symptomatic relief, not cures.  Some of them are quite silly.

Answer 3

Steam your head over a pot of boiling/hot water with Vicks or eucalytus essential oil--that will get things moving.  Use a vaporizer at night, you will get better faster.  I use Nyquil to help me sleep at night--sleep often helps you feel better overall.  Otherwise use Mucinex--it's a mucous thinner.

Answer 4

Be careful with this one, quite a few people i know have ended up seriously ill and on antibiotics - seems to be virulent!

Answer 5

Answer 6

Mustard packs help with that.

Answer 7

Peppermint Essential Oil works wonders for symptomatic relief AND it has anti-microbial, anti-bacterial (most colds are caused by viruses...but while your immune system is fighting those viruses, its easy to catch a secondary bacterial infection), and anti-inflammatory properties leading to a shorter time of being down and out with the cold. I have used this countless times and have always had great success with it. Thyme Oil has anti-viral properties, but I have never tried that one. Cinnamon Oil is, also, very effective against almost all viruses.

Answer 8

NyQuil works best for me.

Answer 9

This may sound silly but put vick on the soles of your feet and wear a pair of socks to bed. This is meant to help with coughs and colds. good luck.x

Answer 10

Chicken soup to clear the mucus and Vic's inhalers are great
