I always thought the best way to get rid of a cold, was to give it to someone else

It's hard to see the screen through all the tears. I've got to be the worst patient in the world.

My daughter had that for a week, she missed 3 days of work. She passed it to me yesterday so I did my usual stint. I wear my clothes to bed, with my super heavy thick house coat on top. An extra blanket on the bed and I sweat that sucker out. I try to eat as much as I can first, to FEED the fever and get it the hell out. I am fine today except for achy muscles. Try it, you will hate it.

Gatorade. You are supposed to sweat a fever out. The Gatorade will also probably make your body legitimately feel moderately better.
You don't run a fever with a cold. If you have a fever you need to treat for flu, tamiflu or another anti-viral. The devil is in the details. BTW listen to malt about the chicken soup. It crosses over for cold or flu.

Have a baby fever; and already had some soup. Really appreciate all the suggestions. I'd hug ya'll but don't want to give you the itis.
I had the cold, then got the flu, then got pneumonia, managed to clear it in 6 weeks! I'm done with being ill for this year.

Bet you didn't even start a thread about it, I'm the worst patient ever.
Of course not, that would have gotten in my way of pretending it did not exist. I did whine to singlemalt who told me to eat chicken soup. I complied, made blisteringly hot Tom Yum Kai, ate it and got better.

Surprised no one has mentioned using a Neti pot. get one. Get some saline packets at the pharmacy....add warm water....rinse every few hours...
Apparently the rhino virus associated with the common cold, likes to reside/proliferate in the sinus. Salt water rinses will KO that shit.

Soup is good. The wife and I make homemade chicken soup every week. If you can stand it, I know it can get rather hot, build that fever and sweat it out.
