    Question Nasal Drip

    I have a cold coming on i only had one 3 wks ago. ANyway my nose is driving me mad. Its running down the back of my throat. I cant blow it, sniffing wont work its just plain yuk. Its making me feel like i have a 'frog in my throat' that i cant get rid of. With my last cold i had the same thing but this time its worse, ive never had anything like it before. Any tips on what i can do for it? I am BFing so that may need to be considered. I would go to the Dr but at the minute its just a sore throat and my nose.

    So hard when your're bf hey!! What about those lemsip drinks with paracetemol? Or you could just do your own honey and lemon drinks. Also - inhalation, like eucalyptus and steam, vicks etc. Nasal sprays like saline are ok to use, you can make your own, just use about a teaspoon of salt to a cup water. Squirt it up your nose!!! Also you can gargle salt water to help kill germs (I swear by this!!) Can't think of much else atm, hope this helps!!!
