Answer 3

If you have the sniffles, Dr. Mom says to just take a decongestant to kind of dry them up.  Here in Oregon, Sudafed is prescription only, so it's a little hard to come by, but there are others that work just as well.  There is a daytime Sudafed and a nighttime Sudafed depending upon whether you want to sleep or not.  If you have a headache or a little bit of a fever, take aspirin or ibuprofen.  The best thing after the medicine is rest and plenty of fluids, especially fruit juice that contains a lot of vitamin C.

I hope you get to feeling well soon.
