There is no such thing as a "cure" for a cold. All you can do is try to relieve some of the symptoms.
The best thing for a sore throat is to gargle with warm salty water a few times a day. It is amazing how well it works--the high salt concentration kills most of the viruses sitting in the back of your throat.

I've got your answers! This may sound really gross, but it works. For a sore throat: Chop one onion, place in small bowl pour honey over to cover, and let sit over night. After that, put through strainer to remove onion. The honey that is left will help sore throat when swallowed.
And for a cold I always stick with lots of orange juice and mamma's chicken noodle soup.

Take Vitamin C and Zinc lozenges this can help stop the cold from going through the entire process.
Horseradish is another herb that many use in the kitchen but it also has excellent properties to treat sore throat and upper respiratory tract infections, reduces fever, and expels concentrations of mucus.

I had a terrible sore throat some months in the past that lasted 3 weeks! Lozenges helped slightly, yet what kept me replaced into sage tea!! I swear by technique of it! you are able to purchase sage exceptionally low priced and in a number of of situations you will be able to will be solid for a lengthy time period. Use a teaspoon in holding with cup- use a espresso cup, and brew you some sage tea! i ended up making it in bulk because i replaced into ill for see you later. in basic terms pour your warm water into the cup, positioned a spoonful of sage in, enable it sit down about 4 minutes, and then rigidity the sage out of the water. it's going to be a authentic water eco-friendly coloration. Sweeten it with honey. it truly works very nearly quickly, and could very last everywhere from 2 to 4 hours. Drink as a lot as you want and as frequently as necessary, this is sage and is no longer risky.

For a sore throat I always gargle salt water. For the cold, lots of vitamin C, but it's a little late to help.

Something everyone else forgot is to gargle with HOT salt water for 5-10 minutes a few times a day in addition to drinking tea with honey and lemon plus throat lozengers.

Although I don't answer to your question directly, but I would like to advise you to sleep earlier (before 10) because sleep is the best medicine and you will feel much better the next day.
Good luck! :)
