Cold remedies

I have a really bad cold. I'm looking for suggestions to get me through it. So far i've tried lemsip daytime tablets, soother sweets, soup, turning the bathroom into a steam room, blowing my nose as much as possible (the more i blow it the more snot seems to develop?).

 

Anyway - what works/helps for anyone that I could try?

Benylin Day and Night tablets. Those and a couple of 1000mg effervescent Vitamin C tablets in a glass of water three times a day.

Symptoms of a runny nose' date=' cough and sneezing [b']were also helped by the drink served at room temperature[/b] and researchers admit there was probably a psychological effect, based on the old tale, from the taste, smell and temperature of the hot drink.

 

So in short drinking is the way forward

Thanks for the article. Hot drinks galore in the Pip household for the next few days then (mostly with whiskey, lemon and honey during the evenings ;))

 

I can't believe the amount of snot. Getting through so much tissue. I've been cheap and nicked loo roll from the uni... I'm paying for it now and have to go and buy some moisturiser for my poor red nose. I must look like that reindeer... :cool:??

Those Kleenex Balsam tissues are really good. No sore nose if you use them (probably too late now though TBH).

 

Hope you feel better soon.
