Cold SOS

I’m getting my son’s awful cold. I’ve used Vicks first defence and taken a vitamin C/zinc supplement but still feel really stuffy. I really really really cannot stand having a cold (as in I’d rather have d&v for a couple of days than the constant irritation of a cold for two weeks) - also when I have had panic attacks in the past it has always been when I’ve had a cold at night and I can’t regulate my breathing in the usual way.
please someone come along with something that will stop this cold in its tracks!
thanks!

I'm just emerging from three days in bed with a cold, OP. No real insight, just the boring: keeping warm, resting as much as poss, trying not to let the family stress you out; all the things which are difficult at this time of year! Good luck.
