Start em at first sign. Generics are as good as Zicam. Cheap generic decongestant for when you're stuffed up. Cheap generic antihistime for when you're runny. Lots of liquids. Lots of rest.

Airborne & echinacea helped me this last time as well. But mostly, I just lay around and whine. That seems to help me get better. Yup, I make chicken soup loaded with garlic.

It's not a cure per se, but it does a wonderful job of relieving the symptoms and making life a bit more bearable. The spicier and more sour the soup, the better. ..bruce..

I do it by practicing hard yoga in a heated room, but other people do it with hot baths, steam rooms, saunas, sunbathing, etc. And one weird idea that works for me: do headstand for 5-10 minutes/day. Letting gravity help clear sinuses makes everything feel better. Two remedies:

You can find it at drug stores and WalMart, a little easier to use than the straw.

Nyquil at night, but in your case, maybe 24/7. Zicam clears me up in 2 days, tops. Angry, In Russia they always told me to do that same thing. They would add glue to the mix. I never did it. Other than that, my mom always said a Sprite or another favorite beverage is best. It doesn't really help, but it tastes good. I use Zicam. Nyquil at night, but in your case, maybe 24/7.
