My main symptom is nasal congestion. ?I figured I'll steam my face before bed but what can I do throughout the day?

    Sudafed and most nasal sprays are safe.

    Wow, I cannot believe how many of us are sick!  I had it for 2 days now and mostly congestion like you.  Last night I slept through the night and could breathe!!!  I have not taken anything...just made some spicy hot soup (pozole)last night (chilis and lime juice) and it helped me sleep.  I have some more leftover for tonight.  Drink lots of fluids and stay in bed!

    The good thing is that I'm off work today so that will help me get some rest.

    Nose spray works really w/ my congestion.

     

    My Dr also said you could take Mucinex (who knew?!) to help break all that up.

    My doc also said you I can take anything that Tylenol makes....Tylenol Cold worked pretty well.

    I just got over the same thing. I was in bed all weekend....Happy Valentines Day to us....LOL!  I asked the Dr. and same thing.  My doc said that I could take anything that Tylenol makes.  I took Tylenol Cold and Sinus.  Worked great.  I also use this website even after the doc tells me something is okay.

    Always consult the Dr. first though.

    Hope you feel better...... :(
