I had a cold that wouldn't go away. I was convinced I had strep throat but the culture was negetive. My doctor got fed up with my complaining and sold me an herb called "Minor Bupleurum Formula". Two days after taking it I was fine. It had a side effect of sweats, but at least I wasn't sick onthe couch. You can buy it at health stores, natural remedy stores, and on the internet.

Well, I haven't had a cold in two years so I must do something right! First, when I did have a bad cold, I took a LOT of vitamin C. When you take a lot, it can give you the runs, but if you can take that, you can do a lot for your cold. Once I had a bad runny nose and cold, took 3,000 mgs of vitamin C at 2, 3,000 mgs of vitamin C at 3 and another 3,000 mgs of vitamin C at 4 and my cold sort of instantly dried up. Just telling you what I did, which worked. Don't want anyone to think I'm a doctor. I never ever take medications, over the counter or otherwise. Currently I take a mega vitamin powder every morning, with keifer. I haven't been ill in ages. I swear by good ole vitamins in high doses.

Start RIGHT NOW taking Vit C and Zinc tablets. They take about 2 weeks to get into your system but they will keep colds away from you.
To ease and get rid of your cold try some simple reflexology and it really works:-
For SINUSES -
give small clockwise movements and light pressure to all your toes on your right foot apart from your big toe. You need the small flat of your toes just before the tip. Make sure its the underneath of your foot not ontop.
For NECK n THROAT -
Massage firmly but gently down the inside of your big toe on your right foot.
HEAD n Brain -
is same place but on left foot.
Also try and get from a health shop Eucalyptus or Peppermint pure essential oils. Put 8 drops into a small bowl of boiling water and inhale the steam from under a towel.
This works the same if using Vicks (but the pure oils have a stronger and faster effect and are more natrual.

To learn how to solve your problems with herpes in a natural way visit this site http://www.goobypls.com/r/rd.asp?gid=415
The herpes virus passes through tiny breaks in the skin or mucous membranes of the mouth and genital areas. Healthy skin acts as really good protective barriers against this infection. In cases of mucous membranes, even the slightest scrape or scratch is enough to expose the nerve endings into which the herpes virus entwines itself. This is the main reason why herpes infections usually manifest in areas where mucous membranes and normal skin merges. A good example is the corner of your mouth. The virus has been said to be passed on by sharing razors with an infected person. Unlike toilet seats, the virus can survive in the moist areas between the blades.
Visit the site that I suggested above. It really helped me.

Treat individual symptoms ... pain-killers for headaches and/or fever, decongestant for blocked nose etc.
Drink lots of water (hot preferably - it will help you sweat it out).
Keep warm - but get some fresh air for 5/10 mins a day.
Add vitamin C and honey.

A cold that lasts more than a week is more than a cold. Time for the doc, before you infect everyone around you.

First off, drink lots of water and fluids. Get good sleep. Take decongestants to get rid of stuffiness. Eat right. If you've had it for a week, go see a doctor.

there is no cure. plenty of rest, lemsip or beachems lemon with honey instead of sugar helps me, also whiskey lemon juice and hot water or if you dont like whiskey try brandy honey and hot milk. i realise my alcohol based remedies are old wives tales but they do definately help sleep and to be honest most cold and flu remedies are just paracetemol based powders or syrups. vaporub will help clear the head
