try a teaspoon of castor oil with hot tea or coffee. it'll cleanse all the cold out of you. you can also try a hot tody-lemons, peppermint or honey, and some cheap whiskey mixed together and hot. it'll open you up too
Gargling salt water helps a sore throat. Eating raw garlic helps fight colds off, Im not sure how but it has worked for me. I find just wrapping up warm after a bath and eating something hot works. I try anything nd everything when I have a cold, if you can't tell lol
