I have a sore throat and my nose is clogged, why and remedies for that?

Ugh dude that sounds terrible! Having a sore throat and stuffed nose at the same time is the worst. It usually happens to me when the weather starts changing from summer to fall, or if I've been hanging around someone else who was sick. Your body is probably fighting off a bug or something. A few things that help me feel better:

First things first, lots of rest. It's no fun to feel crappy so just relax and take it easy. Watch some Netflix or play video games in bed to take your mind off feeling gross. Make sure you're drinking plenty of water too - being hydrated helps you heal. Soup is a real lifesaver when I'm under the weather. My mom makes the best chicken noodle soup, it soothes my throat and always makes me feel a little better. Taking some medicine can also help - I don't mind the taste of DayQuil so that usually does the trick for me.

Ask your parents about gargling warm salt water - it's not the tastiest but it really helps soothe a sore throat. You could try breathing in steam from a hot shower too, the vapors can help clear your stuffed nose. Putting Vicks VapoRub on your feet at night is also something my mom swears by. Just don't eat it! Haha. Anyway man, hope you start feeling better soon. Being sick sucks but just take it easy and you'll be back to 100% before you know it!

Why? You caught a cold or flu. It happens. I'm just getting over a horrible illness.
Things that helped me: cold and flu medicine specifically a decongestant, throat lozenges, warm lemon honey and ginger drink, ibuprofen for headaches, nasal rinse.
