Since this morning I've had a sore throat and my head feels really heavy. I also feel really tired and just want to sleep all day. But normally when I have a cold, its a blocked nose that really gets to me, but I dont have a blocked or runny nose, just a sore throat and weakness. What should I be doing to get rid of this?
Apples, green tea, rest, soup, yoga if you can manage it.
Sleep. And drink warm stuff.
Hmm do your glands hurt? It sounds a like it could be glandular fever. But anyway, if it is a cold, you just need to get some rest. Your body is telling you to go to sleep, so you should listen to it. Take some lozenges for your throat, propolis spray is also very effective, and have some soup. Drink plenty of fluids and if it doesn't pass within 3 or 4 days, go see a doctor because it could very well be glandular fever or some other condition.
