You've got a cold or you feel a cold coming on, there's a few things you can do to help
you get rid of that cold. I'm Dan Carlson, I'm a nurse, I'm going to try and help you
through this today. You're going to want to increase your vitamin C intake, your fluid
intake. Use certain medications to treat your symptoms of your cold as it'll make your cold
a lot less extreme. You can do certain things like drinking or eating chicken noodle soup,
warm tea maybe with honey. Honey helps a lot on a sore throat. But basically you're going
to want to treat the symptoms, get a lot of rest, maybe see a physician if you think it's
getting a little too harsh. Maybe a pharmacist can help you in telling you which medications
would help prevent the severe severity of a cold. You can do all sorts of little things,
but increasing fluids and increasing your rest and not exerting yourself, using medications
to treat the symptoms are all very important things. If you feel it necessary, definitely
consult a physician. How to treat a cold, I'm Dan Carlson.
