Nationwide Clinics Staff answered 8 years ago Hi,
You can do steam inhalation with plain water (with electrical steamer from medical shop), salt water gargling and you can take a paracetamol.
Thanks,

Uma Maheshwari - Dietitian Staff answered 8 years ago Hi,
Include 4-5 tulsi leaves in the morning.
Drink ajwain water.
Burn the tip of turmeric stick and inhale. This will relieve nose block.
Heat charcoal to red hot. Mix jeera, jaggery, haldi powder and sambrani. Add this mix little by little to the hot charcoal. Do this at bed time. Let the fumes stay in the room. This gives maximum relief to any kind of cold. Helps to breath properly and induces quality sleep.
Do steam inhalation 3 times a day.
