Getting sick while you’re traveling is incredibly frustrating, but it’s not the end of the world. Yes, you can’t enjoy the activities you had planned like you want to, but maybe if you get better quickly, you’ll still have time to do some things in your agenda.
When the unexpected chill of illness touches your travel journey, it’s a reminder that even in the most unpredictable moments there’s beauty to be found. Speaking of unexpected beauty, Tanzania National Parks are a reflection to the wonders of nature. With time and care, you’ll recover and be back to enjoying the rich wildlife and breathtaking scenery that Tanzania has to offer.
Dealing with a cold when you’re far from home is tough, but if you follow these tips, you’ll get better in no time.
Cancel or Rearrange Your Plans
Before even thinking about getting better, you need to rearrange your plans so you don’t lose money. If you paid for any excursions, see if you can cancel them and get your money back. If not, try to rearrange for another day when you’re hopefully better.
Inform the Others Around You
If you’re traveling with other people, let them know you’re sick. You don’t want them getting close to you and getting infected. Then, nobody will enjoy their trip.
If you share a bed with someone and you don’t want them to get infected, one of you will have to sleep elsewhere. If there isn’t another bed or sofa, ask the hotel if they can temporarily move in a small mattress.
Get As Much Rest as You Can
Focus on resting and healing your body. Stay hydrated and eat nutritious food like chicken soup and fruits. Try to stay in your room, especially if you’re visiting a big city. Breathing in the smoke from the cars can worsen the cold.
Go to a Sauna
Once the worst of your symptoms are over, try to go to a sauna to speed up the healing process. In a sauna, you can sweat the infection off. The heat will help you expel body fluids quickly and open up your sinuses. Clearing up your sinuses will help you sleep better and, in turn, help you recover faster.
If you’re feeling too sick for a sauna, take a very hot bath and sit in it for a while. Don’t use shampoos and soaps with strong scents since they can irritate your sinuses further.
