Ok - first - I KNOW I should probably see a doctor.  Don't have time.  So I am holding NO ONE responsible if I croak.... lol

that said - any home remedy suggestions for what seems to be a head cold coming on?  My throat is achy, anything cold hits the back of my throat and makes my toes curl and my right ear has that inner ear achy thing goin on - lil nasal congestion is the 'boogery icing' on the cake.... (I know - EWWWWWW on the imagery)

I am drinking hot tea - will have chowder for lunch since warm and hot things make me feel a bit better - but anybody got some other suggestions for over the counter meds or anything?  I have NO TIME to be sick - i got too much to do!!!

thanks all!

Sudafed will clear up your nasel congestion and they have a non-drowsey daytime formula......however with the throat thingy if that gets worse its best to see the doc to rule out strep

EWWWW - not strep - NO - I rebuke that thought......

I will check out the Sudafed - I typically like Drixoral - but that stuff knocks me SMOOTH out!  Can't have that!

I have been told when you feel a cold coming on drink plenty of green tea it helps and pomegrate juice is also suppose to help get over colds quickly.  Tylenol cold and sinus works great as while but it has to be Tylenol cold and sinus.

i'm no doctor...but i watch a lot of medical shows on tv   with that said, sounds like you have a sinus infection and possibly an ear infection too.  both can be cured with an antibiotic.  don't have time to see the doc?  try the emergency "after hours" clinics.  hope you feel better soon.

Warm some oil and put a drop or two in your ear. This is what my mom did for me. It works for the pain.
