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.
