Cold Remedies: A cold is a viral ailment that has no direct cure, but you can relieve the symptoms.

1. A cup of tea, preferably with honey and ginger, can soothe the throat and open up nasal passages.

2. Get plenty of rest. During a cold, the immune system works hard to fight off viral invasion, requireing a lot of energy. 

3. When sleeping, use an extra pillow to elevate your head. This helps relieve nasal congestion. 

4. There are medicines for practically all symptoms. However, don’t take antibiotics as the cold is not a bacterial illness
