Head Cold

Post by Bntarrw »

Hello to all, I was wondering what tricks, remedies, witch potion, to try get rid of a head cold. My son has a big shoot coming up and I was curious to see what has worked for others.

Thanks.

I get into a hot steamy shower for a while with my Saline Spray bottle and get as much loose craap to come out as I can..... Seems to shorten the cold...

Steam Inhalation with Olbas oil or Menthol drops - I know an actor who uses Friars Balsam (Tincture of benzoin).

That's what I've been doing this winter anyway... and Paracetamol.

I tend to take 'lemsip' which has paracetamol and a decongestant in it. Only thing to point out is that some cold remedies contain banned substances, so if your son is shooting in a sanctioned match then do read the contents, and if in doubt check on the WADA website.
