The cold and flu season has been here. I caught it a couple days ago.

I'm wondering what you all do when you catch it. Any home remedies or medicine?

Any tips and tricks. Would love to from you all.

For me cutting down on all cold liquids, taking steam, drinking soups, drinking a lot of water and taking rest/sleep helps.

Hot water, lemon, honey and ginger a few times a day. I normally do some form of cardio too, usually a long run to get some air in my lungs and to de congest. I hate being congested more than the cold itself.

Sucks to get cold, despite what some people might believe.
In some cases you can do nothing other than let it run it's course.
Some medicine will explicitly have in the notes "to treat or alleviate symptoms", so it's not a cure really.

My advice would be.
- Stay warm.
- Have warm drinks/soup. (this is conditional though, some warm drinks upsets my stomach tbh so I avoid them)

Something I do and I'm not sure why not more people do it, I wear face-mask while heading out anywhere.

I just blast a heater on my entire body works every time

Zinc also sold under the brand called zicam, and then vitamin C. Beyond that rest and fluids.

Sweat it out in a hot shower for like 1-2 hours at a time, drink water. And just cope i guess :D

for me drinking vitamin C drinks like orange juice and taking a zinc supplement and drinking Gatorade and taking a hot shower.

You do this you will get better in 4 hours. You will still be sick but the symptoms improves.

how did you catch it?

I actually don't have one. I haven't gotten the cold/flu since I was in my teens. I'm not sure if it's because I drink a lot of water, and love to smoke marijuana.. but I don't seem to get sick like I once did when I was younger. It also could be that I'm just a little more wise then I was when I was younger, and know now how to prevent myself from getting sick.. like not going from cold to hot too frequently, always staying dressed warm when going outside. When I was younger, I didn't like wearing jackets and would go out the house without one regularly, despite living in a state that snows.

just cope and deal with it, no need to do anything else

There's definitely something more at play. Maybe the environment or your immune system. But consider yourself lucky mate. Also good on you for taking care of yourself.

Yeah, I'm not really sure what to pin it down to. I'm not saying that I can't get sick, because I have no doubt that I can still catch the flu or cold, I just for some reason haven't in the longest time. And tbh, I'm super thankful about it.. because I used to hate getting sick growing up. Especially having to go to school with a cold.
