I agree, paracetamol and bed, lots to drink and lots of sleep. If it starts to have an effect on your chest and breathing, go to see your gp. Get well soon 😊

I order the Sambucus Elderberry Syrup from Amazon. It works as a preventative and also acutely to help with a variety of illnesses. It is promoted to have anti-viral properties. I take this as a preventative, along with Vitamin D....I believe they help ward off many ailments. I have been well of congestion for a very long time. I hope this helps.
