Steam is really great for a stuffy nose. Make sure you drink lots of liquids to help keep the mucus thinned out. Gargling with salt water can help a sore throat. I usually take Mucinex.
Hot tea, and hyssop tea is healing for sore throats and coughs. Otherwise I get a decongestant pill and noe spray into me pdq. I can’t stand not to breathe!
I’m sorry to hear you aren’t feeling well. When I catch a cold, the things that I find comforting are facial tissues with lanolin, really good chicken soup with Saltines, hot tea with lemon, strong cough drops (like Chloroseptic) and orange Gatorade. When I was working, I’d take Sudafed. Mentholatum is also soothing on the nostrils.
If you don’t object to alcohol, a hot toddy may be soothing. Put one or two tablespoons of brandy in a cup of boiling water. Add one teaspoon of sugar and a squeeze of lemon. Get comfortable with your feet up. Drink slowly. The steam will clear your sinuses and you may fall asleep. This is not a cure; it may ease you through the worst of the cold.
