Simple fact. There is no cure for common cold, except to man the fuck up!

Don't waste money on lozenges and cough remedies. Have a good feed, loads to drink and go back to bed til it goes away itself.

I go for vitamin C (Fruit juice or solvable tabs) and caffeine. Also occasionally Shops Own-Brand Flu Plus pills.

Thank you lovely people. Feeling the love and feeling better already.

Lots of good tips,

Manning the fuck up as I type.

I have had man-flu, and yes it nearly killed me - true story!

I assume that is meant to be ibuprofen? Or smarties as I call them... Utterly useless, unless you take about a dozen at a time.

I like the blackcurrant Lemsip to unblock the nose. That’s about all it does.

Brufen/ibuprofen, same thing. What works for one person doesn't always work for another.

This. If you're really blocked, inhale steam. Hot water in a bowl, towel over your head. No need for vick or menthol. They're a cosmetic addition.

I'll allow you paracetamol if you're feverish.

Annoys me that chemist shops just hand out the meds rather than give out advice.

This from a pharmacy technician...

Get well soon!
