Is there a way to get rid of a cold faster?

Question:

how can i get rid of a really bad cold??

Answers:
If what I am about to tell you does not get rid of your cold I will go out of my way. This is what you do that will work %100 unless you are HIV positive or have a serious immune system problem.
With boiling water make chamomile tea.
Put it in a cup and add a shot of rum or any sort of brandy.
Squeeze a full lemon inside.
Mix this up and drink it slowly in the morning and before bed time.
You will never allow your body to keep the for long.

i have heard that airborne is good.

Use airborne or Zicam

sleep, relaxation, and some hot soup and tea

wear a lot of clothes, to sweat out the cold. or drink lots of water.

drink tea!
put a ricola in steaming hot water and let it melt
inhale the steam, it's very soothing
orange juice
medicine obviously, nyquill is really awesome

in bed cover your self alot and get good medicne

Besides the usual remedies, those zinc lozenges they sell at the drugstore seem to help.

zicam, chicken soup, hot shower, rest, oh and vitamin c

Take zinc tablets and lots of liquids. If you can get a hold of anything to release the phloem double the dose then spit it out.

go to the doc and get medicine or take Buckley's

Vitamin C and
Lots and lots and you guessed it, LOTS of liquids. Especially water and anything hot such as soup, tea, hot water.

Sqeeze the juice of half a lemon into a cup, add boiling water an a spoonful of honey. Works wonders.

Lemon is anti-septic so fights the virus, and honey smooths the throat (which often comes with a cold)

I have a cold right now too.

have a sound sleep.and take more vitamin c rich fruits like lemon , oranges and some other edibles..

There is no way to get rid of it faster. It has to run it's course. Antibiotics do NOT help a cold. A cold is caused by a virus and antibiotics are only for bacteria.They do nothing for a cold so never waste your money on antibiotics. So lay around for a day or two and drink some hot tea.

I usually will feel a cold coming on a few days before, so I load up on vitamin C and eat a lot of oranges. It helps make the cold go away, or lessen the intensity.

suck on cold-ease logens. Really works.

Drink lots of O.J.

guess it depends on where you grew up and who your mom was :) drink lots of oj, eat lots of chix soup, and stay in bed for at least 24 hours and rest, ther-a-flu does really good for me, then mucenex for my cough remember lots of sleep and oj

my experience. zicam doesn't seem to really do anything. i tried cold MD once and it worked really well. i would recommend it!

in the meantime, have some chicken soup ;)
