How to get rid of a cold?

I've had this terrible cold for 5 days now and it doesn't want to seem to go away.

Is there any home remedies I can try to get rid of a cold?

There's no cure for the common cold, but you can help yourself start to feel better sooner.

Be sure to drink plenty of fluids such as water, orange juice, tea etc.

The vitamins in the orange juice will help boost your immune system, and the water and orange juice will both keep your body hydrated.

It's also a good idea to sip on some warm fluids such as warm tea, and get plenty of rest.

Also adding moisture to the air with a vaporizer can help you feel better and help to get rid of the cold.

Usually a cold will go away within a week or 10 days and if your cold symptoms last longer than 10 days you should see a doctor.
