You got anything that will help fight this viral lung infection I’ve got?
Antibiotics don’t work on virii; I suggest long hot soaks up to the chin, with some bath salts (Epson salts which are magnesium sulfate, not sodium, and cheap; or Bicarb, which is also cheap, can be had in big bags at the warehouse clubs), and have something to sip close by. Another thing that seems to work for aches and pains and whatnot is crushing a bunch of cheap aspirin tablets and dissolving those in the tub as it fills.
And rest.
Need I say it — chicken soup? May not help, but it can’t hoit.
And I don’t even play a doctor on tv.
Oh, and I swear by those saline nose rinse things. Those clean up and sooth the tissues. If I’ve got a sinus infection (I go by feel, and am prone to them) I first give it a shot of (brace yourself) hydrogen peroxide. Walmart has pump bottles of that, very handy, and it doesn’t take much to bitch-slap the critters that are buggin’ ya nose. Then a minute or so later (whenever it feels ready), gently blow out everything, and when the head feels clearer, the saline rinse. The saline is okay as directed on the package (can’t do much harm), but I don’t recommend using the peroxide more than once every day or two, it’s hard on the tissues.
