If your chest is stuffy or achy, boil some water, pour it into a medium sized bowl, and put your head over the bowl (not too close or burns will ensue) and a towel over your head and the bowl to direct the steam at you (this worked for me when I used to have asthma but didnt know what was wrong). Breathe the steam slowly. It always helps me when I get a chest cold.

One other odd thing, chicken soup never really did much for me, but when I ate some bland flavor (Chicken, etc) Cup-O-Noodles, that seemed to improve it more then the regular soup. I know that sounds nuts but it works

[edit] Sarge is right, NyQuil is the universal equalizer. It might not make you feel better, but you'll be unconcious anyways

, so you won't really care. Its great stuff.

I take it even when I'm feeling fine just for the euphoria.
