A few things: Moisture: use a humidifier, take a hot shower. Stay hydrated with oral fluids. Use a saline spray to loosen secretions. Drain your sinuses with a neti pot or similar from the pharmacy. Use a warm compress. Try otc decongestants – use spray no more than 3 days. Try otc antihistamines or allergy medicine. If no improvement, see your md for prescription drugs. You may need to see an allergist.
