constant cold symptoms

i cut an union up. tape a slice or two to the bottom of each foot (i use hockey tape)



i'm not sure if this only works for fever, but I had a cold/fever (i can never really tell the difference) and my buddy gave me that home remedy and with in a few hours i started feeling better...



the onion is suppose to draw toxins into the feet and ultimately into the union... usually only have to do this once for 5 or 6 hours but a second or third time doesn't hurt.



u'll want to stay seated most of the time and you'll want to tape the union directly to the skin... not over a sock or anything...

This is similar to an old Armenian remedy that has been used in my family. I thought it was pretty gnarly too, but there's something about it that works, sometimes. Actually the trick was to mix some salt in the minced onion mix, if I remember correctly

It turns out that we're not the only ones:
My family wrapped my arm in onions and salt when I fell on it as a kid. Turned out it was broken, so after a day of the onion c**p we went to the doctor.

I've been suffering cold symptoms for the past six months and I am starting to get really worried. As soon as one cold clears up, another one kicks off. Just recovering from a two week cold, and today I have a sore throat, which is a sign of another cold starting.

I have had this same thing. I have been sick for about 5 weeks. As soon as I start to feel better - it starts all over. I am getting nervous as I am hearing this is usually the sign of something more severe - COPD, cancer, etc.

I have had these cold like syptoms for over 3 yrs now , have had various minor ops done on nasal passage,sinus, but but has worked ive had sprays,steroids,anti histamines coming out of my ears and still its here, what should I be doing now as my doctor doing nothing for me?
