take a good rest and drink plenty of water..you can start eating fruits now so that you will absorb all the nutrients of those fruits..you can drink medicine now too..do not wait for it to worsen before you drink your medications..

drink plenty of water and lots of vitamin c like juice drinks and fruits. here is something that works for me, in a glass of water put 1 tbsp of salt and 2 pinch of baking powder. mix it. then gargle it, then get a syringe (take off the needle) and get some of the mixture then squirt it through your nose. its going to help relieve stuffy nose. hope it would help. get well soon.

Well, to relieve the stuffy nose, I always get some steam going.When my baby gets a stuffy nose it really bothers her sleep. She doesnt sleep! So, I have tried many different thins.One thing of course would be medicines for a stuffy nose, obviously, also like I said, I use steam.If you dont have a humidifier, you can always let hot water run and put your head above it with a towel over your head to keep the steam in the small area, or I have gotten in to the bathroom with the shower running hot water.
As for the sore throat, I coudnt tell you much. The doctor told me that there isnt much you can do, lozengers actually dont help that much. Nor does the meds.
I also suggest propping yourself up so you can breathe easier,and taking in alot of fluids to help flush your system and prevent any dehydration.
I aslo heard plenty of rest is good!
Hope this helps a little. Hope you feel better soon!
