[Deleted]

I currently in pain with a blocked nose, i keep on blowing my nose and i still get blocked nose. Even through i get a headache when i blow my nose to try and unblock the nose.

when i try and breathe through my mouth i get a sore throat.

So do you know what i need to get from the chemist to get them problems sorted?

Just ask the pharmacist at the chemist. They are trained to give you the appropriate medicine based on what you tell them. It would be inappropriate for unqualified people on a bus newsgroup to try to advise on a treatment based on a written description.

no im not a doctor and i dont think any one on here is why not just phone nhs direct and ask them they may have a facbook page if it was me i may try lemsip flu stuff but as i say im not a doctor best to get the info from them to be on the safe side

Me personally, all I do is take 2 paracetamol and ride it out. I call it 'sweating it off'. The only reason I do this is I'm really stubborn and refuse to take remedys. It does take longer this way though but still works - for me anyway ;D

well the good news is i got some anaesthetic sore throat spray and a blocked nose spray...

problem is i still keep on sneezing.

While were on the subject what ever tablet I take they never flaming work. Always goes the opposite and making it worse.

You're probably better by now but I would have suggested Contac as it dries up that horrible crap running down the back of your throat when you have a cold - and plenty of orange juice

[londonbusboy]

Yeah i have a horrible cold first started with a sore throat and progressed.... now taking Beechams All in One tablets which work a treat

[slr]

I find Vicks First Defence is quite effective at the first signs of a cold coming. I can't take anything from Beechams they give me chest pains for some reason.

It's that time of year again...let the coughing BEGIN!

Everyone around me has cold and flu. I'm not affected all, like some sort of immune system bastion
