Any quick remedies for colds?

I have a lacrosse tournament coming up in two days, and got this fucking killer cold. I mean coughing to the point where my abs hurt and I have a constant headache. Tried Buckley's syrup: not doing much for me. Tea w/lemon and honey: Not really working either. Cough drops: Fishermans friend, vile stuff. I'm drinking a shit load of orange juice to try and pump up the Vitamin C, a little progress. So doctor NS, have any quick remedies that I could possibly use to get better faster? +K for ideas.

hot water with lemon and wisky, tastes like hell but knocks that shit right out of you and also a shit load of water then like 9 hours of sleep right after.

An inhaler might help with the cough, idk if you have one tho.

Sleep sleep sleep! And add water into that fluid rotation. Alternatively, sweating it out can work as well in some cases, like a chilled run or stationary bike. And some chicken noodle soup :)

go to an urgent care center and tell them you have a really bad cold and they will most likely give you codeine/promthazine cough syrup, codeine really helps with a cough, and it helps you get a good nights rest. If not just get some nyquil, which has an antihistamine which helps you sleep, dxm for the cough, and tylenol for pain
