In quite a lot of pain from cold, tips?

[Starrynights86]

I am pregnant so very limited in being able to take decongestants etc but I am in a lot of pain. I have very sore ears and a sore throat. Paracetamol is helping a little. Does anyone have good tips for things I can do at home to help the pain? Not sure when I should go to a doctor, it’s just a cold but it’s the pain.

Go to the doctor. If you ears and throat are sore you probably have a bacterial infection. In the mean time, drink lots of hot lemon tea and swallow a teaspoonful of honey slowly every couple of hours
