What's the best way to get rid of a cold?

[IBhacknU]

Sore throat, stuffy nose, congested
???

 

[kami]

sleep, lots and lots of water, don't eat a whole lot and keep it light.

 

[Regine]

Vitamin C, lots of fluids, and lots of rest.

Or like Napalm says, cut off your nose - then it can't get congested

 

[Yeeny]

Turn your shower on full steam, and sit in the bathroom for about 15 minutes. That and Vicks VapoRub should help clear you right out. And of course, lots of rest and fluids too. Hope you feel better!

 

[SexEPid]

Dimetabs!
Or suddafed work for me
Lots o' sleep and water help too!

For the sore throat: Gargle with Listerine. POWERFUL stuff!

For the other stuff: Sex, plenty of it. Test have shown it to have therapeutic benefits.

There's really nothing you can do if it's a viral infection (like influenza).

The best thing to do is relieve the symptoms and help your body fight it off by doing what people suggested above.

 

[IBhacknU]

I guess sitting in front of this keyboard isn't considered rest?

 

[kami]

nope. get your ass in bed if you wanna get better.

<< For the other stuff: Sex, plenty of it >>

Namuna,
should I find a partner, or will any sex do?

 

[kami]

sex probably cures anything.

 

[IBhacknU]

That's what I keep telling my wife!

Best thing to do...

Buy a big bottle of Gatorade in whatever flavor you prefer. Swig deeply off it till it's empty. Goto bed, let your body make use of the electrolytes and Vitamin C and other good stuff, then wake up the next day feeling like a million bucks; along with the immediate need to use the bathroom.

Works great for me! Oh yeah and a shot or two of whiskey beats out Nyquil anyday in my book.

run around in the cold and then jump into a freezing cold lake...that will always fix u up...if not then it'll kill you and you won't feel it anymore.

 

[dude]

Hahha....

&quot;what won't kill you will only make you stronger&quot;

 

[Mday]

wait a month, if you're still sick, wait another month, if you're still sick, wait another month, if you're still sick, wait another month, if you're still sick, wait another month, if you're still sick, wait another month

unless you're not a guy...

 

[apoppin]

Rest in bed, plenty of sleep, lots of water and fresh juices and lots of extra buffered vitamin C (including Zinc Ascorbate) and bioflavenoids. Keep warm (not a big problem in Hawaii).

(Some herbal remedies including echinacea may help.)

Above all stay away from the computer and do not post forum topics.

 

[thebestMAX]

Get in bed with a bottle of Scotch. Sex helps but not necessary UNTIL you feel better.

Works for me.

 

[IBhacknU]

must.... resist.... urge.... to.... POST!

(feeling a big better, thanks!)

Old saying: A cold will last seven days if you treat it, a week if you don't.

 

[dude]

[Viper GTS]

I bury myself in my waterbed for hours on end. Works well for me.
