Have a cold and sore throat

I went to my normal OB appointment last week and felt a cold coming on. She recommended Coldeeze lozenges, saline spray, steaming face, etc. I also used a neti pot. I kicked the cold pretty fast.

^All great non-medicated suggestions. If you do feel really crappy, my OB said it's okay to take tylenol cold. Same for headaches- only tylenol.

You should be able to get it at any pharmacy... or online at Amazon.

One of the weirdest things at first but it works really well. And my advice, don't have nice clothes on when you do it or use a towel as a bib Chat Icon
