A good immune system is built up by getting colds and letting your body defeat them, you gonna tell us you've had more colds than everyone here in 16 years and have some kind of super immune system? :m00:

Diet etc. is also included in defense vs. colds & I had a lot of illness when I was young so I guess my immune system is teh pwn now! :D

But still, the aim of this thread is to have people QQ about colds so less on immune system! :twak:

Well.

If it's not viral, you can only treat(as said) the symptoms. Like hot water for cold feel and loss of fluids(no wanking!) etc.

If it IS viral, then...well...good luck and hope it ain't deadly :D

If it keeps on going on for three days, off to the doctor and get some viral pills.

If it's birdflu, then stay the f*ck away *loads shotgun*

if you dont get at least one 'cold' per year then im afraid you probably arnt socialising enough with different people, thats almost guaranteed. it doesnt matter how strong your immune system is, the bacteria/virus is different each year. just because you were always ill when you were 5 doesnt mean jack shit.

im out and about pretty much every single day and going to uni with 6000 people im bound to get something, the worst i get is 1 serious infection per year. though i heard the average is 3.

Honestly, am I the only one capable of seeing that Bugzy didn't really mean that he never gets a cold? He gets colds, just not in any serious extent. Good for him, end of the story. :/

Lot of truth in that. I was hardly ill for about ten years, but now my mate's moved back to this part of the country so we're out all the time, meeting new people, being coughed on etc and I've had so many colds and bugs since I've been "getting out more" it's untrue. I'm considering becoming a full time geek again.

found a cure for blocked nose :D get 1 large bowl 1 cloth/tea towle k now boil the kettle and put the kettle water in the bowl (dont matter how much water just how hot it is) . Then put some vic ( 2 tablespoons) in the bowl of steaming water. Then get a spoon and stir it around and when done it should be a little big gooey :D ok now get comfy put ure head in the bowl (2-5 inches away from the goe) then put the cloth/tea towel over your head and breath through your nose for atleast 10-15 minutes. I did it for 10 minutes or so and it completely unblocked my left nostril :)

You hardly "found" that dude! People have been doing that since Vics was invented. Its easier just to buy a vics nasal spray. Does the exact same thing!

Put your faith in modern medicine ;)

Take paracetamol and ibuprophen for the pain. Sudafed to decongest you. An expectorant cough mixture like covonia if you have a lot of phlem. Throw in a good dose of vitamin C and some multivits. Drink plenty of water.

Well, considering I socialise nearly every day, do a paper round every day & have to walk 2-3 miles from and to school per day - I doubt it's cause I don't get out too much.

Besides, you can socialise indoors you know...?

my point was basically it doesnt matter how ill you used to be, it wont effect a fight against a new bacteria that your body never came in contact with. and usually the more you meet different people the more likely you will get such infection.

its not meant to be derogatory that i said "you dont socialise enough with different people", its just the only way to phrase what im trying to say.
