Best cold medication for stuffed antenna and sore throat?
Answer:
Since you posted this in alternative pills im going to throw this out there. I am an herbal student and i use this home remedy for myself and my kids..it get rid of any sore throat problem including strep in 24 hours.
1 tablespoon pure honey
4 cloves pressed fresh garlic
1/8 - 1/4 teaspoon of ground red (cayenne) pepper (grocery store spice article is fine)
mix it up and take a teaspoon of the mixture every partially hour to hour. The honey has anitseptic properties and will net the mixture stick to the troat. Garlic is antibiotic and will kill any germs or virus on the troat tissue. The cayenne will help increase circulation to the tissue and transport away the germs killed. Cayenne is also a great healer and will speed the soothing of any broken tissues. It also has agony reliving properties. This mixture feels close to a warm blanket from the inside out. You want it to stick to the throat so dont drink anything purely after taking it. And rememver you have to pocket it ever half hour to hour. It will also stimulate your entire immune system for that stuffy trunk to.
Take echinacea 2 capsules every hour to. (if you enjoy autoimmune problems or diseases or are on certian meds than you need to check for interactions near echinacea...mostly immune suppressant drugs or some antidepressants)
Really try Robitussion, The " Cold, flu and nighttime". This works great. I started a cold and I took this and woke up the next morning outlook 100 times better. It doesnt taste great but it works.
advil cold and sinous fluid gells. I use them when ev I get sick.
The old' cure. Just sleep.
I'm a professional singer and I am constantly getting that same entity. Just rest your voice and sleep.
I love Alka-Seltzer Cold & Flu (orange flavor is my fav.). It does an excellent job. I also use perfect ol' Vicks vapor rub — I rub it on my neck and put a cool dripping cloth on top of it and next take a dry towel or something to wrap around and tie to keep hold of that on my neck while I sleep or do chores (in other words... a cold compress).
It sounds so gross (I guess it is pretty gross) but you can dilute 1:1 peroxide to wet and for your nose use an eye dropper and snort it, style of like a nasal spray. For your throat, gargle but do not swallow. My mother told me roughly it so I tried it and it does work. If you're sick enough you'll try anything.
Echinacea and Golden Seal
