ME TOO! i have a terrible cold! and i hate it cus its winter break! man im sorry! i hope you feel better, i just took vitamin C and that makes you feel a lot better ohh and nasal spray works for your nose so get some of that too. FEEL BETTER!!!! ]
Get plenty of rest, drink those fluids, and take Tylenol Cold! Lol. Maybe use Vicks, that'll clear your nose up. Also, Puffs with lotion will make your nose not hurt when you blow it. Just take it easy and stay warm. Hope you feel better!
Hope I helped!

SLEEP! Get tons of sleep! You should also drink Lipton's Tea, and if you have a cough or anything I usually take this medicine called Delsym. You can get it at a drugstore. And since your nose is stuffy ask a parent to run to the drugstore and get breathe-right strips. You put them over your nose and they relive any congestion. Feel better soon! :)

I have had the same thing for awhile. I missed school Wendsday because of it. If you take advil and just rest until Monday (or Tuesday) you will most likley be ok to go out and be with friends and stuff like that. Drink alot of liquids and nose spray! Feel Better!
I'm here to help.

you could put vasaline or lotion on your nose for that because i have had that before...its like raw from blowing it so much...anyway if you really want to gt better, you could go see the doctor (if they work on weekends) and if not then just get lots of rest and drink juice....hope this helps some...and make sure you stay inside as much as possible... ]
Yeah that sux i have it to but ive had it for about 3 weeks maybe a month! go to your doctors and they will give you a prescription for something! im on 3 medices :/ but they help ALOT! hope i helped! ]
Oh man that sucks. Orange juice really does help, except you have to drink it with all the nasty pulp stuff in it cuz' all the vitamins that will make you better are in the pulp. Also try to sleep and rest as much as possible, so take a medicine that will knock you out! lol And for your nose, you can either put Vaseline under it to make that raw, stingy feeling from blowing it go away, or you can blow your nose really well and then put Vick's Vapo Rub under it. That'll keep your nose from running, so you won't have to blow it and make it raw! Hope I helped, and get well soon!!! -Berri ]
SLeep is the best thing for you! and rest!!!! you can put a hot rag on your nose that helps clear it!!! wear sweats and a sweat shirt and lay in bed and sweat it out!! keep taking medicence so your not fighting the cold with no medicence! ]
Nyquill...clears your nose and thorat and helps you sleep. ]
besides taking some sudafed or something like that, get lots of rest!!! drink a lot of water and take a nap whenever you have time... dont do and strenuous excersise... trust me i woke up last week with the same exact thing! im pretty much better so dont worry about it! itll just take some time... all of the other symtoms are gone cept i lost my voice for a while... so make sure you dont yell or anything... hope you feel better!!! ]
Sleep! Make sure you have plenty of sleep. Drink lots of water and keep warm! xx ]
I take the same things so, they work fine.with the nose if it's scratchy from blowing it then but lotion or any body cream that'll help.if it's runny then tissues are all you got and if they're congested take nasal spray.Hope it works!!!!Merry Christmas!!

HAHA WOW SMALL WORLD!! I have the same thing right now. Um.. take one main medicine.. something stronger than Motrin or something.. I think the cough drops are temporary for making you not cough. ]
I would go into the dr. ]
If there is something you need to be ready for for Monday, get a lot of rest this weekend and take 2 dayquil on any days that you need to be semi-coherent. Make sure you take them around 2 hours before you need to be at your "peak", ie. before an exam or something, because I find that after the effect of the dayquil wears off, I feel worse than I did before I even took it. You feel really good while it's working, though. ]
LOTS AND LOTS OF SLEEP. I find that no amount of medicine can replace rest. Give your body time, and you will get better. To relieve some of the symptoms until them, there are obviously several cold medicines out there. I usually take Dayquil (or Nightquil). Hope you feel better =) ]
