Janet,
warm compresses work well too. Do you have a vaporizer? That would work at night when you go to bed? Rub Vicks vapor rub on your thoat. That could help too. Get better. I'm just waiting to get it now. The girls that sit next to me at work
have both got it. Cough and snotty noses.
Keep your chin up that way it don't drip on your boobs..LOL
Sorry I couldn't help myself. Feel Better.
