I caught a hell of a cold two weeks ago and it seems to have passed except for this Niagara Falls tier runny nose. I’ve succumbed to desperation and have just been walking around with a nose tampon. Lemmy, how do you treat your runny nose??

At night, this sounds silly but it works.
When in bed, put your head way high on your pillow (head facing upwards) so that your head tilts backwards. It doesn’t have to be a huge tilt, but give it some angle. Stay like that for about 15 minutes and watch your nose magically clear up. Then try to get to sleep before it plugs back up. Good luck.
So I tried this and it was an experience of mixed emotions. Relief that my nose was no longer running mixed with an uneasy shiver of disgust as I felt everything draining down the back of my throat. Effective yet disturbing!
