Do you smoke ? That is probably the reason why ..
Take some Echinacea maybe that will help. It promotes healthy immune function it just a vitamin. You can get it at any drug store...not sure where you are at but Walgreens..Jewel/Osco some places I know that defiantly carry it.

Your "cold" is probably not a cold but an allergy. If you can, see a doctor. If that's not possible I would try some antihistamine products which are readily available at any pharmacy ,over the counter. Your environment could be the cause,ie. dust, pets, plants or even the foods you eat. If you suspect the foods, I would first try eliminating dairy products for a week or so. If that does'nt work, try cutting out wheat. If your home is very dry, a hot steam vaporizer may help. Again, see a doctor if you can.

A cold doesn't last for 6 months.
What are your symtpoms?
Before assuming it's a cold, I would write down your symptoms and head to the doctor's. You're going to want to find out if it's allergies or something more severe.

Sounds like you have more than a cold. Colds only last a week or two at most. You need to go to a doctor to see if it is something more serious.

she is right you could be suffering from allergies. But you didn't say if it was off and on or straight threw. If you have a cold that keeps coming back you are putting yourself in a situation where you are exposed to much. not washing your hands enough and I take l-lysin at the first sign of a cold to get rid of it sooner. And don't forget your vitiamin c

If it's just stuffiness in your nose and sinus area I would get my adnoids checked out. I had a friend who was always stuffy and couldn't breathe. She finally went to the doc and they said that her adnoids were larger than normal which blocked up her nasal passageways all the time. My little brother also has the same problem. My hubby has the same problem too and the doc told him that a bone was out of place in his upper nose area and that he'd need surgery to fix it. So it could be a number of things. The best thing to do is to go to the doctor. I'm sure it's nothing serious.

It's probably not a cold then, it could be possible you have allergies to something. Allergy symptoms can mimic cold symptoms also.

You could actually be suffering from seasonal allergies. It depends on where you are. Go to the doctor.
