flu, fever, virus... how can i get better?
yesterday i just woke up with very badly blocked nose, aching throat and coughing, most of d time getting green stuff coming out of my throat. i felt weak all day but still went to work. my nose was all d time running and i ended up with bruiced lips and nose due to the continuos blowing. sneizing and coughing several times, blowing my nose repeteadly. a day later, i feel the same but much weaker. i m having just ibuprofen, and keeping myself warm. i have no actual aching in back or legs.. just a light headache which doesnt bother me. i dont like medications when its something not serious like this. anything that helps coz tonight i need to go out. and is it mad to go out in cold night and in very smoky environment? (club) thanks

The smoky environment will irate you even more. Cold air shouldn't be bad unless it is in the 30's etc. but bundle up anyway. It could be your are allergic to the pollen that is heavy right now but it sounds more like a sinus infection. Try drinking about 3 cups of hot water that was boiled. Just plain water with nothing added to it and as hot as you can sip it. Drink one and wait a few hour and then another one. I always forget to do this until I'm super sick and then when I remember it works wonders. I just don't like the taste. Put some Vaseline on your nose to keep it from getting an more raw than it is. If you do have a sinus infection antibiotics makes a big difference in just an hour or two. Good health and good luck.
