Common cold relief (1 hr and 40 minutes to be exact)?

Question

I have the common cold (scratchy throat, stuffed up nose). I need a really quick relief because in about 7 hours i have a performance (I'm in a play). I"m in a dancing role and have a couple lines. I need to know if there's anything I can do to help soothe my throat, un plug my nose a bit and give me some energy so that I can do what I need to do onstage. I don't want to be cured per say I just want to have about 1 and half of relief. If anyone has anything that can help, please tell me. Thanks in advance to those who answer.

Answer 1

Take DayQuill.  Take two now and two about an hour before your play.  That stuff is the best for getting rid of cold symptoms.

Answer 2

Take hot tea put a peppermint in it and drink it put a hot cloth on  your face and take a  nap. And you will be great in no time. Get well soon!  

Answer 3

sudafed. tylenol cold DAYTIME. or robitussin liquid to soothe the throat.

if you are "of age" you could try taking ONE shot of vodka. i'm serious, it kills the bacteria for a while in your nose and clears it up (temporarily!!).

Answer 4

for your throat take excedrin migraine.... i know that sounds crazy but my throat has been killing me the past few days and it really makes the pain go away for a while. also take sudafed or something like that to help the congestion.
