Keep head cold treatments on hand

I have recovered from a head cold. I started with my old tricks. Used the neti pot, swabbed my nostrils with Zicam and the only meds I took were Benadryl. I repeated all these actions until I knew the worst had passed. It took 2 and 1/2 days. One piece of info I will pass on from last April when I had the sinus surgery. They requested that I not use the neti pot after surgery.
NO

but instead, use the bottle type, holding your head upright while flushing.
YES

.
In my opinion, it works equally as well.

I also prefer the Zicam swabs to other forms of Zicam.
So now I have shared all my head cold tricks. 2- 3days is always my preference to the 7 days of just living through it without treatment.
