I have caught a cold and I am travelling tomorrow to Syria where the temp. is -4 degrees, So I was wondering if anyone knew how can I cure it quickly??? Perhaps I havent been to a place that cold so I have no idea how cold is -4 degree.
Its your body that develops resistance. (every time a new cold virus catches you, you become immune to the old virus, there are 100s of type of cold viruses).
Tablets only make it less visible. (Its akin to taking a tranquliser). You dont feel the pain but you are still infected with flu.
you can only take things to help with the symptons.
lots of fluid. lots of vitamin C. not sure of your faith, but no alcohol if you have the occasional drink. most important - SLEEP as much as you can. you body will heal fastest when sleeping so pack in some 10 hour nights if you can.
and as for how cold -4 degrees is, well, that's relative. i'm canadian. after 2-3 months of -20 degrees in the middle of winter, -4 towards the end of winter can feel like summer. if you're coming from weather like here, -4 will feel pretty cold. make sure you have thick pants. wear layers(t-shirt, shirt, sweater, good jacket), scarf and gloves would be good too. for me -4 on my ears and head is no problem. if it's cold for you, get a hat (or a tuque). if you keep your head and ears warm that will go a long way (humans lose the most heat from their heads).
happy travels.

controlled trials it's been found repeatedly to have no more effect than doing
nothing.

increase fluid intake...tea with lemon is best....lots of water...more rest..have a medical check up and probably they will give you this flu shot..
and lastly, stay out of QL temporarily...sometimes QL stress you more..
