Alcohol is not a treatment or cure for colds, and it does not act as a decongestant. Generally, health authorities do not recommend consuming alcohol during a cold. Some older research suggests that moderate alcohol consumption may reduce the frequency of colds.
Too much of it leaves you dehydrated and makes symptoms like congestion worse. Alcohol puts a damper on your immune system. And it might mix badly with cold medications you're taking. So until you feel better, it's best to lay off the booze.
Stay hydrated. Whether its tea, warm water with lemon or broth, drinking warm liquids can be soothing, prevent dehydration and ease congestion. Avoid salty foods, alcohol, coffee and sugary drinks, which can be dehydrating.
Medical professionals warn against mixing alcohol with medications for allergies, colds, and the flu due to the risk of dangerous complications. The risk of liver damage, as well as depressed nervous system functioning, increases with higher doses of medication and greater alcohol intake.
It's also important to know that there are a few other components of alcoholic beverages that can trigger side effects similar to alcohol intolerance — some of which may be more or less serious. For instance, beer and wine contain high levels of histamine, which can also contribute to a runny nose or nasal congestion.
Too much alcohol can leave you dehydrated and worsen cold symptoms such as congestion. It can also suppress your immune system and -- potentially -- interact with cold medications you're taking. Until you're feeling better, it's best to lay off the booze.
Cold infections, which affect the upper respiratory tract (nose, sinuses, and throat), progress through four stages: incubation, early symptoms, peak symptoms, and recovery. You may develop different symptoms at each stage.
The bottom line
Sleeping when you're sick is essential for your recovery. Sleep helps to boost your immune system, so you can fight off your illness more effectively. Your body knows what it needs, so don't worry if you find yourself sleeping a lot when you're sick, especially in the first few days.
The key is to treat the cold sore promptly. Creams that contain aciclovir, for example, can speed the healing of a cold sore by 1 day , on average. The antiviral medications aciclovir, valacyclovir, and famciclovir are also available as tablets. For severe cases, a doctor may recommend IV treatment.
