Drink alot of water to flush out your system. If you are congested then boil water and sit infront of the steamy water. Drink alot of hot tea. Like Green tea and chicken noodle soup. It has to take its course unfortunately.
The best way to prevent a cold next time is to wash your hands often. This is the #1 way to prevent an illness.

I take zinc and vitamin C, and get rest. The zinc seems to stop the cold from getting worse, so as soon as I start feeling like I'm getting a cold, I'll take the zinc.

Taking tylenol and sudafed will make you feel better. But, you can't get rid of a cold. It will last 10 days no matter what you do. Sorry.

Hi, Cutie
First of all, please desconsider any wrong word... I am answering from Brazil, to exercise my English.
My father use to say:
If you have medicines, you will get well in seven days.
If you don't, you will get well in a week!
I use to drink hot teas and open all the windows and doors in my house, to ventilate better, I do not make exercises, or hard jobs and wait until become better... Virus have a cycle, and unfortunatelly we have to live with them!
Hugs!

you don't. Cold is caused usually by a rhinovirus. You just have to get lots of sleep and use whatever palliative methods you can to make you feel more comfortable until it goes away.
