what should be taken if one is suffering from cold,,,how about setride?

Answer 1

Common colds need common sense, they don't need anti-biotics. The cure for the common cold is given below:

1. Nasal drops for dry and stuffy nose. Add 1/4 teaspoon of table salt to about 5 ml lukewarm water. Use this solution as a nasal drop. Use 1 to 2 drops in each nostril about 3 to 4 times daily. You can keep this nasal drop in refrigerator for 2-3 days.
2. Eat fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C.
3. Zinc lozenges can help, and quicken recovery. They are good for a dry irritated throat.
4. Get plenty of rest, when you rest up your immune system is boosted up and it quickens the process of getting better.
5. Eat garlic raw, put it in your mouth and chew.
6. Fill a glass with warm water and mix in 1 tsp of table salt and gargle several times a day.
7. Take a bath with a few drops of cinnamon in the bath water can relieve congestion.
8. Take hot water in a bowl and put some Vicks vaporub. Place your nose over the vapors and inhale, covering yourself with a towel.

Herbal Remedies of Common Cold:

9. Garlic juice made by adding few drops of garlic oil to a teaspoonful of onion juice and diluting it in a cup of water is helpful for common cold
10. Drink ginger tea. It can be made by boiling ginger in normal tea.
11. Drink a teaspoonful of ginger juice mixed with equal quantity of honey.
12. Take hot water in a bowl and put some Thyme leaves. Place your nose over the vapors and inhale, covering yourself with a towel.
13. Take tincture of peppermint leaves or echinacea (leaves, flowers), or ginger root.

Answer 2

When, not sure, see a doctor.

If it is cold it should be over in 3 days and there is no cure.

It can re-occur any time. It is a common virus or Bugg(street name)

Incubation period 7 to 15 days max.
Lasts 3 days. May elevate body temperature slightly.
Feel run down for few more days.

Treatment, good nourishment , plenty of water and rest. Over the counter medication and some prescriptions can help with secondary effects.

The most important thing is to know, it is cold and not some thing very serious, other then cold.

About setride?

You mean Steroid, it is up to a doctor it should never be taken without the doctor watching you over closely. It attacks your whole body if not careful.

Answer 3

the best natural way is nature cure to beat the cold. Take Cabbage leaves and put them in a container with water and boil.
As the water steams , take the container on the dining table and cover your head with a towel and inhale and exhale the steam.
THE steam process will clear your blockage of the nasal passage as well the lungs . Regular steam in winters shall keep you hale and hearty. When Cold is acute and for a long period, then you can put a small quanity of HALDI ( Turmeric powder ) instead of Cabbage leaves. BOTH the Cabbage and Turmeric can also be done by people having Asthmatic conditions.

Answer 4

The best medicine is the home medicine as it has no side effects.
Drink KADHA tthrice in a day, it really works. Take Tulsi leaves, tejpatta, sugar, pepper, basak leaves in a bowl and boil it till the water becomes half of the container.
Gargle with luck warm water with salf, and also wrap ur throat with a warm cloth. Try to avoid cold drinks. And drink a lot of hot soups but without chilli, it will work soon.

Answer 5

Cold is a self-eliminating condition. No medication is required. Take tea with Tulsi and ginger; it will give you some quick relief.

Answer 6

take tylenol cold and synus (not an off brand one) follow directions as it says on the box, taking them as close together as you can, it might make you a little drowsy at first, but usually taking 2 full days of this gets rid of it for me, and you can also go buy "wellness formula" (huge nasty pills that are AWESOME) from a health store.. if you can make yourself take them, they'll help alot

Answer 7

if you have a blocked nose put 1 tbsp cooking oil (the heavier the oil the better) in your mouth and keep for abt 1 min. then rinse your mouth with it (dont swallow the oil for god's sake) and spit it out. you can already feel your nasal blockage looseningl. I swear this it real and it works!

Answer 8

try turmeric.. either have it in milk.. or just have a pinch of it mixed with about half a cup of hot water.. it really helps, specially 4 the cough.. easy n natural..

Answer 9

Lots of water as hot as you can drink it down your throat... there's ain't any other medical cure.
