Brrrrrr!

Another trick that is supposed to work is to coat the inside of the nostrils with petroleum jelly......apparently this traps the virus in the nose so it doesn't get into your system.....I haven't tried it so I can't vouch for the efficacy of such a remedy.

Apparently it is a gel that you squirt up your nose. Rhinoviruses prefer an acidic environment and the gel is alkaline. A quick squirt three or four times a day and they soon get the message!

Maybe we should combine the two ideas and mix bicarb into vaseline and stick that up yer nose?
