Nothing: Your body will deal with the cold virus in a matter of days. You're probably better already. If symptoms persist for more than 10 days then you may have a secondary bacterial infection and should probably see a doctor.

Comfort : Using a vaporizer and saline nose drops. It won't cure you but it will make life more comfortable.
