I rarely eat salsa; however, my head is congested and keep coughing so there's something in my lungs.
Last night I bought some corn chips and the hottest salsa I could find. I plan to overdose on jalapenos and cayenne to "burn" whatever I'm dealing with out of my respiratory system.
I might have to increase my vitamin C, as well. :heart:
What's your "go to" strategy for conquering a head cold?

I recently got rid of Alka Seltxer Plus.
I go to Native Remedies for a number of health issues.
There are two products that I bought to keep on hand in the event of a cold.
When you get sick, you need your remedies on hand.
You wouldn't feel well enough to go to the store to get the remedies you need.
You'd be dragging yourself to go out.

We use cold buster behind our ears, every two hours and it is gone the next day.

Most times I tend to go the natural route for illnesses but I will be the first to admit, sometimes with a bad cold that comes on suddenly I take a dose of Nyquil and go to bed and sleep it off.

Drinking plenty of water to keep myself hydrated because when I'm sick I really don't want to eat or drink anything, but for the most part I usually just let it run it course and deal with it the best I can.

Water, mucinex, decongestants (the ones behind the counter that make you feel like you are a drug addict when you buy them at the pharmacy)...

Is it a product or a recipe? If a recipe, can you share please? Thanks!

I take extra Vitamin C and take a Zicam every three hours. Zicam is a zinc based over the counter
cold remedy. For me, it usually reduces cold systems by about 90%. (Personal opinion)

I've had a terrible head cold in recent days. My friend recommended taking a hot bath with bath salts which I tried for the first time. The bath salts had added eucalyptus and spearmint which made the hot bath very fragrant and the hot steam did a great job at clearing my head. My dad use to rest his head over a boiling pot of water with added Vicks! I guess it's the same kind of thing. I'm not awfully fond of the smell of Vicks so I'll stick with my eucalyptus and spearmint bath salts!

Sleep, high vitamin c juice, and salty foods like soup, ramen, etc

I have had a cold now for a month and a half. I have a cough that I have had now for 5 years. I have allergies that I have had since I was little. I have no idea what to tell you. I have tried everything and been to more doctors than I can remember. :angry7:
