get adequate rest,increase your fluid intake this causes mucous to be thinner.Drink hot teas to increase your circulation.Peppermint tea is great.Increase your vitamin c
and zinc intake.The coughing is going to give you a sore throat
so gargle with salt water a few times a day.

Steam inhalation, 1 drop lemon oil, 1 drop peppermint oil and 2 drops eucalyptus oil put these in a bowl with boiling water, put a towel over your head and inhale the vapours.
Drink plenty of fluids,

Rest. Drink plenty of fluids. Take OTC meds for congestion and cough. Take your vitamins. A humidifier.
Take a pan of steaming water, and hold a towel over it and your head and breath in. A hot shower will help too.
