getting over a cold faster...how to stop a cold in it's tracks!
How do I get over a cold quickly? I started the coughing and runny nose like two or three days ago and I need something that will help this cold shorten so I can have a good weekend. Any suggestions on how to make a cold go away quicker?

Garlic, Vitamin C and at least 1 - 2 litres of water a day works for me :)

The only thing that works well for me is cold & flu tablets. However, I also eat a teasppon spoon of garlic 3 times a day which is a natural anti- biotic, drinking orange juice leading up to cold & flu times is benificial at keeping colds at bay anti-bacterial hand wash regularly. chillies I eat something with hot chillies to flush my body.Hope this helps

You can't make it go away, but you can alleviate your symptoms. Drink lots of fluids. Juices are good, especially if you haven't been eating much. Little things like cough drops and chapstick will make you more comfortable. If you're okay with taking medicine for it, DayQuil/NyQuil (or the generic equivalent) are absolutely fabulous, and will make you feel tons better. However, I recommend taking half the recommended dose of NyQuil the first time, and taking it a couple hours before you need to sleep, to figure out how much your body will react to it. Some people get knocked out for hours.
