For common colds and flus my course of action is Sore throat-gargle sea/salt water then gargle a big spoon of honey And drink loads of honey/ginger/lemon teas thru the day. Dont eat much but eat wisely -soups/fruit/veg. And a vitamin c tablet with echinacea extract..
Id go with this one. Fruit juices goes long way.

I definitely avoid public places/the elderly when I'm sick. I mean that's likely how you got sick in the first place, isn't it be more courteous than your infector!
I drink lots of water, eat a multivitamin at least once a day, and sleep whenever I can, put that shit on fast forward ->>>
I don't take any extra medications or anything if I don't have to, I generally prefer to keep my body chemistry as close to "routine" as possible when sick
IMO if you're sick and work with people/inside a building take your damned sick leave, it's not just about you, ya know!

Maybe travelling right before flu season so you get all that herd immunity if you arent exposed to high traffic areas

since starting retail I've gotten the flu twice and before that it was like only twice a decade
keeps me fucked up for 2 weeks minimum. Main thing that helps for me is trying to not smoke cigs at all for the first week or so (but I can't really do that)

I discovered something new, for the common cold.
I put a couple drops of Jasmine essential oil on my collar, the part that doesnt touch the skin, the idea being that its a pleasant odor that is both antibacterial and somewhat antiviral.
It results in my stuffed nose now running, my sinuses are expelling the infected fluids, and me getting an occasional whiff of delightful Jasmine scent.
Works like a charm

Yeah its really just a normal flu/cold, or I'd have viral pneumonia already. Far from it.
But the Jasmine oil thing is a keeper, works as good as vicks vapo rub while much friendlier of scent. And, you put ot on your collar, not yourself.

Oddly enough I found that Virtual Reality helps. You kind of dissociate from your body sensations and are distracted so you don't really notice the symptoms. Just choose something that isn't particularly active.
