I have a nasty cold...

Any ideas on natural remedies that work?? I really don't want to take cold medicine. I'm stuffy, runny nose, sneezy, scratchy throat, coughing ... the works!!! Thanks a lot DH!!! Stick out tongue

Re: I have a nasty cold...

  • for the throat this is what the dr told me to do with my strep- hot water, lemon and honey.... helps coat and sooth.

    Hope u feel better... sick bumpies unite!

  • Thanks. : ) I was actually just wondering to myself if some honey tea would work. I've thought about getting those Vicks shower thingys, if that would be any better than taking medicine, but I'm not sure ...
  • me too its horrible!! i've been gargling warm salt water, and taking tylonal.. feel better!
  • My doctor told me to gargle with warm salt water for a sore throat. I was also told to try warm lemon and honey but that made my throat feel worse.
  • what about just breathing at night. the mucous pools in my lungs then solidifies and I have an awful time in teh morning bringing it up (overshare I know) but a mom needs to breath, right? I think medicine is the only option. Benadryl and Tylenol I'm most comfortable with, but I've taken it 4 days in a row and don't want to push it. I'm freakin' too.
