Cold and Flu remedies

[Kurt.]

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.

Just realised this makes no sense as the word Flu has corrected itself to food for some reason. Oh well.

It's OK mate.


We're used to you making no sense

I tend to stick some vaseline up my...nose. It does seem to keep me reasonably clear of airborne viruses and I went through COVID and afterwards without as much as a cough but that may just be pure luck

I’m much better than I was last week thanks Joey, just a bit of sore throat, bad chest and a cough… nothing serious. I only started the thread as was curious to how people treat these things.

My missus keeps bees and there is nothing better than hot water with a teaspoon of proper honey with lemon.

I've found that alcohol makes me feel better - in moderation, of course.

Great idea, the Hospitals have been for of people with respiratory coughs etc bad flu since December - even if you have a Flu jab you get it but not as heavy of a bug IMO...
