Omg I am also squashing a stomach bug at the moment and I had the noravirus back in January… cursed!!
Unfortunately I don’t think you can speed up the process it just has to run its course but to help your body bounce back start with liquids: water, pedialyte, and broth in small sips to test what your stomach can handle atm. Then when you’re ready, move to the BRAT diet — bananas, rice, apple sauce, toast… a chicken noodle soup :) for about 2 days (possibly more if your stomach is still sensitive). And then lots of rest + heating pad! Godspeed 🫡 and 𝓖𝓮𝓽 𝓦𝓮𝓵𝓵 𝓢𝓸𝓸𝓷 ❤️🩹

💊ok so gargling warm salt water has done wonders for my sore throats in the past! i just microwave or heat up some water in the kettle and then take my salt shaker and shake a lil bit in the cup, then stir. make sure to "close off your throat" before gargling (sounds dumb, but the first time i gargled warm water i choked and it was kinda painful haha).
this next thing is really nasty but i swear i have never had a cold that this method couldn't beat. and it works SO QUICKLY. swallowing chopped up, raw, garlic. by the spoonful. I KNOW ITS SO BAD IM SORRY but it works so well (i think bc the garlic is so nasty it just creates a hostile environment in your throat that the virus doesn't like). it helps a lot if you do this before a meal, since then the garlic taste will be gone from your mouth before too long. i usually just take a spoonful or too with water, or pinch my nose while taking it to spare myself the taste.
feel better <3

🤧Been sick with flu for 5 days. Highly recommend when in the midst of it:
Self face and neck massages throughout the day with a nice oil, including ears! Steam bath for your face and ears, Very gentle stretching during the day so your muscles don't get too tense if you're lying down lots and resting. Lots of hydration constantly, Fresh air if possible at home.

I wish I could re-rec with an image but this is in reply to @MARIAMARIA’s rec. I had to dig way back in my photos to 2022 and find the clay cow tools I made. Unfortunately, I abandoned them so they never got fired but maybe I’ll re-visit the project once I can afford pottery classes again.
