Obviously there’s loads of foods and viruses around at the moment, they’re miserable, draining and just not very nice. What remedies do you use to help alleviate symptoms ? Personally, I just stick to the tried and tested method of paracetamol and ibuprofen plus drink plenty of fluids and then just ride it out. I do have a pack of menthol lockets today though as my nose is blocked and these help. Do you guys have any other suggestions of what may help ?

Stuff that doesn’t include juice of my mar, or essence of dad … you know.
 

Vitamin C with Zinc tablets from Superdrug, one a day.

Put some headphones in and listen to this for a few minutes. Sounds daft but i have a friend who has sinus issues and says frequency audio has helped her

Paracetamol are a must to take away the aches and lethargy.
 

Beecham's hot lemon or blackcurrant with a dash of dark rum and honey in it. Vicks vapour rub all over my chest for night time. Just having a Beecham's now as feeling dreadful at the moment.
 
Proper home made chicken soup, need a roast chicken carcass or two to boil down into stock, roast the skin n bones if you want a deeper colour of stock.
There's loads of versions, the ones packed with ginger, garlic and turmeric from asian/oriental cooking are good.

The better the stock, the better the end product.

If you want to cheat, get a lamb or chicken vindaloo down you, the chilli and garlic will shift any weight on your chest. Not necessarily a long term solution though.
