Not a lot really - colds have to run their course.
Try steaming - might help to clear the nose a bit! A good walk would make you feel better if you can face it.
Just take paracetamol four hourly to relieve the symptoms - but a cold will last a week if treated, and seven days if not!!! Sorry :(

Im not sure how you'd get rid of it but Id suggest melting some Vics into a bowl and do the steam treatment. It ususally clears my nose and throat even if only for a few hours of relief. Goodluck

Lemon and eucalyptus essential oils mixed together will unblock your sinuses a treat.
Use about 4 drops of each on a tissue and put on a radiator or similar.
At night time put a tissue with in your bedroom and you will wake up with clear sinuses.
It even works on my sceptic partner ;-)
Benzoin oil is a really soothing oil for your lungs. And dairy has mucus-producing effect on me so i would avoid it for a while.
For the headache I would use aspirin.

Could be related to bronchitis. The only way to know for sure is to see your dr for further evaluation. I have had some of these symptoms the past two weeks and when I went to the dr on Mon they found out I had bronchitis.

You may have sinusitis, if the symptoms persist once you cold as gone, go and see your doctor.
Sudafed or sinutab help to relieve some of the symptoms.

Steaming and decongestants (e.g. actifed tablets).
Afraid it will have to run its course.
Coughing is possibly post nasal dripping.
Headache could be sinusitis
