A Simple Cure for a Common Cold!

great advise, I am going to try it. My grandmother would rub us down with vicks and we had to wear camphor around our neck. I hated that smell. My friends mother would rub vicks on the souls of your feet and put you to bed with heavy mens socks, and that wiped the cold right out of you as well.

its really great wll surely try it whn i suffer frm the sm...only thing is tht i kno it wll tickle a lot once inside my ears :) lets see :D nice post though

I used to do that to my kids about once a month. It keeps the ear wax soft and helps to clean the ear. It kept them from getting ear infections. It just takes a few drops in each ear. I would lay them on a pillow in my lap and put a few drops in their ear and let it bubble up for a few minutes then turn them over and do the other side while that side drained out onto a paper towel then flip them back over so that the other side would drain. I did that right up until they were about 16. They would come to me with the peroxide and ask me to do it, because it would stop their ears from getting itchy when they were getting full of wax. I always did that instead of cleaning them with Q tips.

I have used this method myself. A friend of mine at work suggested it. She has a deaf son with an haering device implanted. He kept having problems with his ears. The doctor told her about using peroxide.

Awesome I was just looking on here for something to help out my children they both have chest cold's and the older one has it worst then the younger one...I think I will give this a try...I know auntie K is deadly at home remedies infact she is a like book, And her advice is alway works...HI5 Auntie K Thanxs for sharing girl..

Thanks for your useful information...

For dry and stuffy nose, try normal saline or salt water nasal drops made by adding 1/4 teaspoon of table salt to about 4 ml lukewarm water. Make a fresh solution every few days keeping it in refrigerator. Use a clean dropper to instill 1 to 2 drops in each nostril about 3 to 4 times daily for common cold . Do not use medicated nasal drops without physician's consent as excessive use will cause chemical rhinitis with rebound block Garlic juice made by adding few drops of garlic oil to a teaspoonful of onion juice and diluting it in a cup of water is helpful for common cold Ginger tea or a teaspoonful of ginger juice taken with equal quantity of honey brings relief from common cold

I'm sorry, but I have to disagree with you on that one. I'm of the belief, and it has been prooven, that there is no cure for the cold. It is a virus and there is no medicine ehich could cure any virus. The thing you can do is to improve your imune system to fight the cold better and thus you get rid of it faster. But once it starts there is no way to stop it on the base of some medication. You have to wait 'till it passes. But hey. What ever makes us feel better, does the work. Placebo of some kind isn't it.

Yeah, my mom use to do that for us kids. I haven't done it in years. I think I ought to start doing it again to my own and my husband's ears because we have tended to get ear aches lately. Thanks for the reminder. All adults should do it too.

Thanks for that, I always do a good steaming with some Vicks in it to inhale, then a take a half boiled egg with pepper and salt, steaming atleast 3 times a day really helps

Oh what a great idea you are lucky that you have an Aunty that know about natural treatments I believe that it is great when it comes to treating any ailment if you can treat it this way, in a natural way as they must of used these way years ago.

3 points, inhale steam boil drinking water, put a spoon of coffee powder, little black pepperm ginger and some sugar and drink it warm

Drink lot of water,lemon juice and orange juice. This isthe nature cure for Cold.

Do you mean to put it inside the ears? It doesn't affect the hearing?
