One word, Dayquill!!!
This is what hubby & the kids use. At night they dose themselves with NyQuil and rub Vicks on their chests and backs and wear a t-shirt to bed. Chlortrimeton (I have no idea how to spell it) also works.
My mother & grandmother rubbed us down with Vicks and pinned a dishtowel around us.
I've never heard about rubbing Vicks on your feet. I wear cotton socks to bed quite often because my feet cramp if they get the least little bit cold.
