Home remedies for curing head cold
Boil some water in a container and add a few drops of eucalyptus oil, peppermint oil, thyme, tea tree oil or lavender oil in it. Inhale the steam till it warms with your nose and mouth. This will decongest your head and release mucus.
If you are also experiencing headache then it will be reduced considerably.
Boil a few cloves of garlic or clove spice in 1/4th cup of mustard oil for 10 minutes. Now, apply this oil to your forehead, scalp, hair, face and temples.
Continue this massage for at least 15 minutes and do it 2 times a day. This will keep your head warm and treat the cold.
Drink ginger tea or boil some ginger roots in water and have it with 1 tsp of honey once daily.
Apply any soothing balm on your forehead at night before going to sleep but do not expose yourself to a cold temperature for sometime.
Drink the herbal teas made from peppermint, chamomile, tea tree or eucalyptus 3 times a day.
In 1 bucket of water add a few drops of cinnamon and take a head bath with it.
Drink 1 cup of warm milk with 1 tsp of honey and 1/4th tsp of turmeric powder added to it twice a day.
