What SueB said for all of you with horrible head colds: if you can stand to stand for a few minutes, take a hot shower. Standing with the water beating down on your forehead will help your sinuses feel better and the hot steam will break up some of the congestions. A vaporizer in the room is also a big help when you're trying to sleep. The bowl of hot water is a good thing to do between showers.

The zinc lozenges work for me, if I suck on a couple right when I begin to feel the first symptoms.
