Okay so I have my parents 50th anniversary in two days. Me, and my two girls have colds (my head is so stuffy). I need need need to feel better. I am looking for any helpful get well quick ideas.
ZICAM works well for me if it's just the common cold. Be religious though and take it every 2 hours.

I've taken zinc lozenges and that has helped speed up the recovery. I think you can get them by a pharmacy in a drug store or in a vitamin/supplement store.

Good old Chicken Noodle soup and lots of hot tea with Honey. ;)

I don't have any good advice, but I wanted to add that the zinc lozenges have helped my husband before. And I wanted to let you know that they also sell them at Target.
I hope you get better soon!

Try Emergen C

I take two or sometimes 3 packets a day when I'm sick. The high dose of vitamin c knocks out my cold.

I have heard great things about the Neti Pot
I want to try one myself one of these days...
