If your throat is feeling sore and scratchy, your first port of call should be to invest in a packet of Lockets. Ideal to take out and about with you, these soothing sweets contain natural ingredients such as honey and lemon that are known to provide soothing qualities and will relieve you from the discomfort of a sore throat.

Blocked Noses

Flu often comes with a blocked nose which can contribute to that under the weather feeling and be altogether quite frustrating. One of the most effective ways to treat a blocked nose is with a nasal spray. Sudafed blocked nose spray is one way to clear the sinuses fast. Vicks is particularly good for children to help to alleviate cold symptoms in a flash. Make sure you stock up on durable tissues that are soft but strong once your sinuses are unblocked.
