QotD: Take Two of These...
What's your cure for the common cold?
There is no cure, of course -- only things you can do to minimise that icky bunged-up/dried-out and stale feeling. Besides drinking plenty of fluids, I find ibuprofen works exceedingly well in reducing not only the discomfort (especially if throat soreness is present) but also the rhinitis swelling. I also use a nasal spray (Otrivine/Otravine) which does a similar but more immediate job. And Halls Extra Strong Mentholyptus are always good for a pick-me-up.
Other than that, there's nothing one can do.
