What is best to eat, drink or medicine to take for a bad cold?
I have a really bad cold. My throat hurts, I could barely talk, A bad cough, and a runny nose. I haven't checked my temperature but I don't think I have a fever since my body isn't warm. It's mainly my throat the hurts the most
What are good foods and drinks to help it? What are some good OTC medicines to take?

I got this information from a website and its for kids but it works just as good on adults and teen's so dont worry
Winter, with its clear, cold days and twinkling lights, can be a magical time of year. Unfortunately, it is also the season when we battle more illness; it's not unusual for typically healthy children to get sick a number of times with colds, sore throats, or the flu.
Colds
here are some things to get yor cold alot better:
eggs
cottage cheese
soup
yogurt
pancakes
mashed potatoes
noodles
thick rice soups
cooked vegetables
hot cereal
applesauce
canned fruit
milkshakes
frozen fruit pops
pudding
ice cream.
Sore throats/coughs
Although soft foods often can be tolerated, many children who have sore throats or a cough would rather have liquids. These can be either hot or cold. If your child wants something hot, offer soup, broth, cocoa, and apple cider. Some cold suggestions include milk (plain or chocolate), yogurt drinks, milkshakes (made with ice cream or sherbet), fruit smoothies, and juice.

Fresh garlic is a natural anti-biotic. Soups are always good, anything warm. Theraflu, gargle with salt water. Use a humidifier when you sleep, keep warm, rest. Any antihistamine and cough suppressant will help. Drink lots of water and juice w/ Vitamin C.
