Are you taking Vit-C? Take some mega doses of C. 2000 Mg every 4 hours. That is my cure for a cold. Lots of liquids too. Chicken soup. If all that doesn’t work, get thee to the dr.
I used to take mega-doses of vitamin C when I would get a cold, but then discovered Echinacea. It usually helps to lessen the severity of cold symptoms and shortens the duration. I took some the first couple days, then stopped. Maybe I should have continued. :-(
I will take some vitamin C and Echinacea right now.
