Accepted Answer

Hot Chicken Soup!: Since a cold is usually the result of viral infection, and a natural defense against virus is heat (fever), plenty of hot fluids tops the list. Some spices help to open sinus passages, ginger and jalepeno come to mind, but there are many others. You may find discussion with a naturopathic clinician, homeopath or someone trained in chinese herbal medicine very valuable.

Maybe the flu: California has seen more flu cases this winter than cases seen over the past dozen years or so.  I hope you had your flu shot.   Check your temperature.
